Tariq Lamptey fit for Brighton despite injury excuse from Black Stars

Apparently not and the Ghanaians are none too happy about it ;
Or he really is injured and Fabian was keeping his cards close to his chest when he said Tariq would be an option on Saturday. We’ll find out today!

In any case the article doesn’t actually indicate the Ghana FA has reacted to news he might feature against City.

There is noticeable talk in the media about our current starting front 4 and how good they are:

————————-Pedro————————
Mitoma————Georginio———-—Minteh

But our strength in depth is phenomenal, we’d be very strong with this four also, 3 of which were De Zerbi favourites:

————————Welbeck———————
Adingra—————Gruda—————March

And still, we have a front 4 with exceptional potential on loan at Champions League or Premier League clubs:

————————-Ferguson————————
Osman————-—Enciso————Buonanotte

And another front 4 on loan with great potential also:

—————-———-Tzimas——————————
Sima——————-Moran———-Cozier-Dubbery

It will be a very long time before we have to worry about relegation again!

You appear to have missed out Wellbeck and Georginio starting together, as they did to very good effect when Joao Pedro was injured… but yes, we have good options!

We know this league is fine margins so unless it's obvious, don't tell anything to your opponents (y)
Indeed.

The selection of Lamptey really affects the tactics of the opposition.

A known weakness of our system with Lamptey playing is the long aerial ball out to the wing. Opposition teams put a big strong player up against Tariq such as Semenyo. He normally loses the 50/50 against these power houses. This means that a centre back always needs to be on hand to help out which can create gaps in the penalty area against us.

Hinsh is good enough in the air to combat most of this but he does need a lot of help from Minteh against speedy and tricky wingers. Hopefully Pep has picked a team with the possibility of Lamptey playing in mind.
