Sheffield Wednesday vs Brighton & Hove Albion *** Official Match Thread ***

[Da Man Clay]

Rosenior had his worse game for us on Saturday. Still a very odd choice.

 

[ROSM]

Naylor says rosenior was stiff after boro game and with quick turnaround between matches then suspect that's the reason. Also it means he can cover midfield or defence from the bench

 

[Easy 10]

Bong looked very rusty when he came on at Charlton (understandably). He gave the ball away a LOT.

Needs to be much sharper tonight.

 

[Marshy]

Eeeeeeeeeek

 

[Seagull58]

Trust in Bong. He is top quality.

#BHAFC team v #SWFC: Stockdale, Bruno, Goldson, Greer, Bong; Knockaert, Sidwell, Kayal, Skalak; Baldock, Hemed. #SWFCvBHAFC

Good team. I think Murphy was poor against Boro and we missed Skalak's delivery. The only thing I'd change is Wilson for Baldock, but I'm sure that substitution will happen.

 

[ROSM]

Bong looked very rusty when he came on at Charlton (understandably). He gave the ball away a LOT.

Needs to be much sharper tonight.

I think it's hard for a full back to come on as sub. Maybe starting will see a calmer experience

 

[TheDuke]

Bong is a better left back that LR but is still rusty. Great to have Liam on the bench...he's so versatile.
Not sure about Skalak tho

 

[Hugo Rune]

Trust in Bong. He is top quality.

This. Start him from the beginning and he'll be fine. He was the best left back in the championship until he got injured in my bias opinion.

 

[Keith the Kipper]

Rosenior was stiff after boro apparently

I Wasn't .

 

[severnside gull]

Funny that some see Skalak as "the saviour" while others are decidedly unsure. Big 90/180 minutes for him.

[BensGrandad]

I think that with Liam able to cover any defensive position having Calderon on the bench also is a waste of a sub unless they are concerned about Bong or Greer not lasting 90 mins, Glad to see Ritchie Towell on the bench as he will be an unknown to them.

 

[TheDuke]

I think that with Liam able to cover any defensive position having Calderon on the bench also is a waste of a sub unless they are concerned about Bong or Greer not lasting 90 mins,.

Who would you have in place of Calde then?

weak bench. not looking good

If fit Crofts if not a young DS striker/Midfielder like Tilley

BG working for talkshite again, Calderon is a must for these games he bleeds blue and white.

 

[TheDuke]

That's decidedly dodgy if an injury to the back four...no cover whatsoever

 

[Coldeanseagull]

weak bench. not looking good

Get yourself over to the drinking thread, then come back and review it. Seems good enough to me
Unless

You mean Their away seating is not up to supporting the weight of seven grown men for 90 minutes
