**** Port Vale FC v Brighton and Hove Albion FC **** FA Cup

[Acker79]

Bench looks really defensive, except Ulloa who has been under performing, and Lualua who is coming back from injury.

Also a bit of concern over upson - I seem to remember reading something about him being rested v reading because he has a knee that often bothers him, shouldn't he be rested if we've got a tough game on tuesday?

Other than that, I think the team is as expected for me.

Interesting one as I thought Upson would be rested ahead of others. But we don't have that many options at the back just now do we?

Maybe Greers calf is still a problem?

I gather he told Jones that he was very focused on this game.

 

[supaseagull]

Grabban looking quality for Bournemouth, would have fitted in well here from what I'm seeing

You must be watching a different game to me then as he looks shite!

 

[SockMonster]

A mate of mine is big Charlton fan and he thought Obika was good when he played with them. Be interesting to see how he gets on today.

 

[Icy Gull]

Since I posted that and Bournemouth have gone two down he has certainly deteriorated

 

[LamieRobertson]

He won't like that.

Lol that is what i was thinking

 

[SockMonster]

Who from the first team is actually missing from the squad today? I mean available and missing.

 

[Super Steve Earle]

So do we assume Kuczak, Bruno, Greer, Ward, Bridcutt, David, Lua Lua, Buckley, Ulloa are under offer and not in the right frame of mind? Or are we tossing a potential money spinning Cup tie in the 5th Round out the window too?

 

[brakespear]

He won't like that.

Next they'll be telling him he should take a shot on goal occasionally when he has sight of goal.

 

[BensGrandad]

Is there any significance in the fact that Kuszczak is not in the squad

 

[Ralphingtonpuss]

At the game and pitch looks like it could do with a break from the rain, other than that come on you seagulls ️️️

 

[fleet]

Is there any significance in the fact that Kuszczak is not in the squad

Sincerely hope that he is having a rest and nothing more

Have only watched since it was 0-2 and Grabban has looked poor - having said that he just had a shot

Eh? Our side is FAR stronger than Port Vale's. What you on about?

 

[brighton_tom]

Lots of changes in the squad today... Would love another impressive performance from March and Chicksen.

A 2-1 win for the Albion today!

 

[BensGrandad]

Sincerely hope that he is having a rest and nothing more

He is one of the two we couldnt replace the other being Ulloa, any other player we could replace bar those two.

 

[Rookie]

Is there any significance in the fact that Kuszczak is not in the squad

Was he against Reading?

We've sold them all.
