Hull City Vs Brighton & Hove Albion ***Official Match Thread***

[¡Cereal Killer!]

Park the bus for 60 then unleash the bench for 30 minutes

No width

Interesting: Makes the game worthwhile.

No width, no overlapping full backs or wingers. Reserve team almost. Physical strength in midfield if Dunk plays a bit forward.

There is the Uruguyan five at back system where the extra centre half goes forward and the full backs stay back in a four back line.

I've put Holla on th left side of midfield as he is the best of the three on his weaker foot. I think the idea (better against Hull than any other opponent) is to battle for possession in midfield. Win the second ball.

That line-up looks like a lonely day for l'il Manu. Would hope that Holla is not our third defensive midfielder and would form a neat bond with Towell behind our offside addict, playing some balls through and shooting whenever he had the chance. A good defensive display might bring the confidence back into Dunk though, so some good might come from it, along with the hope of no replay.

Calde and Chicky will be holding his hand.

On another note I feel a 'Manu offside' sweep is in order. I'm going for 7 offsides from our Dutch master.

Park the bus for 60 then unleash the bench for 30 minutes

is the correct answer

 

[Sorrel]

Are Hull going as reserve as we are?

 

[Driver8]

I hope nobody has wagered too much on an Albion win. Can't see that team getting close to a goal.

Other than the two wing backs.....

 

[pb21]

He'll be benched now for league games with the arrival of Ridgewell.

Ah yes, forgot about Ridgewell!

 

[StonehamPark]

Good for the fringe players get a good run-out but you can't expect them to shine within such a weak team against a stronger Hull side.
Very interested to see how Towell and Manu do. Just hoping this team don't get humiliated today.

Park the bus for 60 then unleash the bench for 30 minutes

this is Hughton. Park the bus for 85 and unleash the bench for 5 minutes.

 

[WhingForPresident]

Theyve left the likes of Elmohamady, Meyler, Hernandez, Diame & McGregor on the bench. We might be alright i guess.

 

[Hugo Rune]

Lots of Dundalk FC fans wishing Richie luck on the official BHA FB team announcement post. Very nice to see!

 

[portslade seagull]

Double figures for me 10 offsides for Manu

 

[Lifelong Supporter]

We need a big game from Ince today. A real chance for him.

 

[fleet]

i am going for 8 offsides for elvis
