[Albion] Manchester United vs Brighton & Hove Albion *** Official Match Thread ***

Experimental. Wouldn't call that our strongest starting 11. But i guess resting players is needed.

Yeah I am guessing there is a bit of resting going on, I wonder if that means the likes of Ferguson, Estupinian, Gilmour, etc will play in Europe? Solly must have an injury though, given he wasn’t away with the internationals.

Don't get it. AEK are rubbish. Should have been the other way round.

Well I tip my hat to you as you know more about European football than me

 

[El Turi]

Solly March is there so I wonder why he’s not playing. The bench looks quite strong though.

 

[Bodian]

Putting out a weaker starting 11 against a mid-table team. Sounds logical to me.

 

[brighton_tom]

To be fair ive seen starting line ups like that before, got worried, and we've comfortably won.

 

[Tom Hark Preston Park]

I'm sure RDZ has his reasons for starting the Albion in second gear

 

[seagullsausage3]

Crikey thats a lot of rotation. Resting players to that degree are we not over estimating AEK Athens somewhat they are likely championship standard.

I do it every time he throws a curveball out.

My fantasy team is in tatters

 

[pocketseagull]

Excited for an Adringra start tbf

 

[Klaas]

Crivens. Not sure what to think of that starting 11, but that's some bench!

What's up with Solly?

 

[Gabbiano]

Weird of Ten Hag to start Dalot against Mitoma given that AWB is probably the player who has most succeeded in keeping him quiet over the last year.

Equally I'm looking forward to what Adingra can do against Reguilon, who is fairly average.

Lamptey Vs Fernandes worries me a bit but mainly because we've seen so little of Tariq for so long.

 

[Fergus the Schnoodle]

Isn’t that a sign of the times - we’re resting a load of players against Man U

 

[AstroSloth]

Veltman RB and Lamptey LB doing the Pervis role?

[The Fits]

A curious but wonderful looking team.

 

[rogersix]

i'ld guess veltman on the left

 

[HangletonGull]

Be interesting to see what formation we start with

 

[Javeaseagull]

Well they do say judge a team by the strength of their bench, in which case.......
