[The Fits]

Hinsh preferred to Ayari on the bench. Must really rate him, RDZ.

 

[pb21]

Buonanotte starts

 

[Washie]

I'm suprised by that line up. Stronger than expected.

 

[Swansman]

Good, strong team. Should be a walk in the park.

We play to win no?

Ayari I believe has a slight fitness issue, hence the two goalkeepers on the bench, Sanchez wouldn’t have travelled otherwise

 

[The Fits]

Great to see Mac back in the number 6 role.

 

[Seagull's Return]

I set my alarm in Wellington to go off at 6.00am

I read that as "alarming Wellington" at first. Childish, but it made me smile (something I've never done in bloody Stoke, as it happens).

 

[Dirty Dave]

Believe Stoke have made 6 changes from their match on Saturday

 

[Joey Jo Jo Jr. Shabadoo]

We always travel with 3 goalkeepers, one doesn’t normally make the bench. If we didn’t and one gets taken ill before the game or injured in the warm up then we’d left with no goalkeeper cover on the bench.

Will there be, at least, audio commentary on the Albion site?

Will this work for you?

ITV have Facundo at ACM. Should be very interesting to watch him.​

 

[Icy Gull]

Good, strong team. Should be a walk in the park.

You’re new here aren’t you?

Stoke on a cold Tuesday evening

 

[Hugo Rune]

100%

Stoke are in for a bit of a shock with him and Caicedo in midfield. Best for them to punt the ball over our world class central pivot.

 

[deletebeepbeepbeep]

Surprised Mitoma is starting saw this game as an opportunity to give him a rest but I guess with March out we need a proven player in the forward positions.

 

[Comrade Sam]

Oh my word that's a lot of talented children!

You are right. This particular Hinsh is only 17. Huge belief in the lad to have him in the squad even if Ayari has a slight knock.
