Team for next season so far....

[stss30]

--------------------Kuszczak---------------------

Bruno--------Greer------El-Abd--------New-LB

------------Bridcutt---------New DM?----------

--------------------Vicente----------------------

Buckley------------------------------------------

---------------CMS----------New ST------------

Bench: Brezovan, Vincelot, Barnes, Calderon, LuaLua, JFC, Agdestein

I wonder If we'll see just 1 DM (Bridcutt) in the starting line up next season if we have better quality of players in defence as I would like to see LuaLua, Buckley and Vicente provide more service for CMS and a new striker/Barnes. As a side note do 2 of the 7 subs have to be under 21 or something like that?

Dunk will start ahead of El-Abd as long as all goes well.

1 striker
2 wingers
3 central

Keep the ball.

If we can play Vicente, Lua Lus, Buckley and CMS we should have enough goals in us.
Plus who ever else we get in at Centre Mid

Noone doesn't even make your 7 man bench! We just have sooooo much depth it's unreal.

Gus has said that CMS will have a better season so can't be one striker - that will never ever work for him

And no mention of Harley either - strange

I know! Ridiculous really.

Well to be honest I think he should start ahead of Vicente But I'm not Gus...

 

[Oscar]

It'll be interesting to see what happens with Dunk (on and off the pitch) and whether Tommy Elphick will be able to push for a place in the squad. I really hope he does. I love our mix of foreign flair and Brighton boys.

 

[Mellotron]

What, "best defender at the club" El Abd?

No chance. He was SUPERB last season, all season.

[shaolinpunk]

Surely the team 'so far' is made of people we have, not theoretical and unspecified new players?

Dunk for me, El-Abd bet physicality but Dunk is more skillfull with his feet

Will he be missing for ACON though?

If you're going to be pedantic, then yes, I suppose. But Gus has already stated he intends to make 3 new signings, and I think it's fairly obvious that the areas I have highlighted need strengthening ahead of next season.

 

[stss30]

I wonder whether we'll have enough depth at CB, if it does go wrong for Dunk off the pitch and El-Abd is off to the African cup of nations we're only left with Greer and Elphick (assuming Hall is going)

Calderon and Bruno can both play CB, guess they would put Bruno CB and Calderon right back

 

[Mellotron]

Dunk can fill in during that time but El-Abd is definitely ahead of Dunk in the pecking order right now.
