Leeds United vs Brighton and Hove Albion *** Official Match Thread ***

[WhingForPresident]

#BHAFC v Leeds: Kuszczak; Bruno, Upson, Greer, Calderon; Bridcutt, Crofts, David; Orlandi, Ulloa, Barnes.

Pretty disappointing that we are starting the season weaker than how we finished the last one..

 

[TSB]

Two upfront though (maybe).
I imagine the lack of wingers is due to supporting Calde.

 

[Acker79]

Not a moan but I thought Oscar liked to start with two wingers yet none start today?

Well, maybe his definition of a winger is slightly different. Maybe he is using lopez and orlandi out wider than they normally play.

 

[Beach Hut]

Lopez straight in then

I...think I'd have preferred Barker/JFC on the bench to one of the wingers

 

[glasfryn]

Warren (Chugger) Aspinall is back
yipeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee

 

[yxee]

...Orlandi and Lopez can't play on the wings?

Nobody will know the formation until the kick off.

 

[KZNSeagull]

So much for the attacking intent less attacking than the 11 at Leeds last season, but team looks good

Rather depends on how they play, surely?

 

[El Turi]

Crofts has a lot to prove as was crap last season. If he doesn't perform in the first month I'd expect Augustien or JFC to take his place.

 

[Ⓩ-Ⓐ-Ⓜ-Ⓞ-Ⓡ-Ⓐ]

Surprised Brez didn't get the nod for the bench

 

[saafend_seagull]

We played two upfront at Leeds last season with a winger, so won't be more attacking than that.

 

[Springal]

Judging by some comments... Some thing's never change!

Something like this?

Kuszczak

Bruno~Upson~Greer~Calderon

Crofts~Bridcutt~Orlandi

Spanish Dave~Ulloa~Barnes​

Although the line up suggests 4-4-2

He is under serious pressure to prove himself this season, his consistently mediocre performances last season won't have gone unnoticed by whoever is actually in charge of transfers these days (David Burke?).

I reckon

I think SD & Orlandi will play on the same side

 

[yxee]

My guess would be Bruno on the left, Orlandi and Lopez as inside attacking midfielders on the left and right respectively. No reason to think that this line up isn't attacking though.

Or maybe Barnes on the left and Orlandi behind Ulloa, he has been scoring well in pre-season.

 

[Hyperion]

Very pleased for March getting a place on the bench. He deserves it. Very pleased with Oscar's first line up. It's all down to execution now
