[Albion] West Ham United vs Brighton & Hove Albion *** Official Match Thread ***

[Weststander]

This reminds me of my school playing days. Tallest boy always played

Possibly needed, as Soucek is brilliant at set pieces.

We are never able to guess team selection now no idea how they may line up. Just cant believe Burn should play anywhere but CB but surely hasnt been selected over Dutch international there. If he plays anywhere else sorry but many better players in squad. Never thought we would get to stage where somebody is selected because they are tall.
Lets have peoples thoughts on how we will line up.

Back 3 with Burn playing No. 9 up front!

No one noticed that Propper’s back in the squad?

Burn NOOOOOOOO

 

[dangull]

Connolly not even on the bench as well. Thought he might be a good sub to use.

 

[R. Slicker]

Maty Ryan jumps higher than BDB.

I am totally baffled by this constant chopping and changing

Is the team really that shocking?

All of these players have featured or started most games this season. Main change is Lamptey which is enforced, and he’s swapped him for Burn (who swaps with White)..

What position/player is baffling to you?

He has done absolutely **** all this season though has he?

Shame BDB can't head a ball for toffee.

 

[The Wizard]

If it’s Burn at left back, after how he basically lost us the game against Leicester, that’s an indefensible decision from Potter.

BDB is already taking into consideration the damage heading a ball can do. He ducks out of the way

 

[portslade seagull]

We have also moved on a lot.

In the wrong direction though

Usual cohort on here who know more about football in general and Brighton players in particular than a professional manager who works with them full time.

 

[Doc Lynam]

Let’s see if Potters tactics leave Burn exposed again!

All of them.

I think Burn is ok as LWB given our current options and despite popular opinion on here, I think he gives us extra cover at set pieces, but he's definitely not a LB. I think we'll be going five at the back with Solly at RWB. Not too bad a team in my eyes, taking into account Potter's strange dislike of Alzate and Bernardo.

Nice goal at Newcastle and possibly intentional back flip for Macs goal at Palace. But yeah apart from that.

Did you watch the Leicester game?

I’m still supportive of Potter, but the way Burn has been torn apart at LB the last few times he’s played there, it’s not comprehensible to me that Potter can’t see that, you could see in the Leicester game after 20 minutes they were destroying us down that side and we ended up conceding all the goals down that side.

We’ll forget about the missed sitters then

I’m baffled that Burn is anywhere near the starting 11.

Alzate, Veltman or White be a more obvious switch for Lamptey, unless March is switching
