Neither Vicente or Hoskins will make the squad

Why list El Abd as right back and Vincelot in the centre when it is a well known and established fact that El Abd is a better central defender and Vincelot is better at right back. Also I would think Vicente or Hoskins will get the nod over Kasim on the bench as again he did nothing of note when he came on against Wrexham and was very ineffective.

How very pessimistic of you. Gus is quoted as saying both are fit but not sure if they can play 90 minutes so they will both 100% be on the bench tomorrow, especially Vicente

Correct.

If El-Abd plays full back tomorrow, against Albert Adomah / Jamal Campbell-Ryce, it will not be pretty.

I missed a word out okay???!?!? I just wanted to share my thoughts with you all so much that mistakes were made. Get off my back about it I feel bad enough as it is.

No second chances with grammar on this site mate - the grammar police will be straight on your case!!!

Please let Vicente be fit enough to play.

PLEASE.


In my opinion, Albion could really SOAR up the table if he gets a run in the team.

Good shout, but in the games Adam has played as full back he has looked very good and the games Vincelot has played CB he has looked comfortable, he likes getting forward with the ball which Dunk and Greer dont tend to do, but either way for me.

He did ok in his first game back and that was about it. Since then he has been what we are missing in the middle aman to win the ball in the air and get some distance on his header. We will need him to unsettle Chris Wood as I fear he will lead Dunk all over the pitch on a merry dance..

Okay, he did play well in that. Not really a normal game, or a recognisable formation, to really gauge his performance as a full-back though.

many at Derby thought he played well at right back when he came on. I didn't especially - he looked very exposed whenever Ward ran at him with the ball, and conceded too many free-kicks.

Just to be clear - I'm absolutely NOT anti Adam El-Abd. Just anti Adam El-Abd at full back. He was TERRIFIC against Southampton in his correct position.

He was absolutely dreadful/got torn apart against a pacey Reading attack: he is a solid CB but in no way a Right back- he's got the turning circle and acceleration of a oil tanker.

i didnt go to Derby so cant comment, your right though, prefer him in the middle where he was superb against Stains, I was merley suggesting if they did line up with him at full back, I wont mind to much as Vincelot has looked very comfortable at CB.

I hope that you are wrong as Vicente, if fully fit, is worth a punt as he is a class above anyone else. To start him would be my chosen option, thus enabling him to work his magic and create a winning position, rather than bringing him on if we happened to become a 'lost cause'

Again, if fit, Hoskins would have my shout any day ahead of Barnes.
