[Albion] Wolverhampton Wanderers vs Brighton & Hove Albion *** Official Match Thread ***

[Swansman]

Why recall Karbownik if you're not going to play him when all our wingbacks are injured? Surely he could have had another half season playing in Poland? Baffling.

To be able to assess and coach him and have him adapt to England?

Obviously not considered good enough at the moment, which means he wont play.

Not very baffling.

No traore, benched. 5 changes for wolves, given few youngsters a chance!

Are the 5 changes the 5 non-Portuguese players? Most unlike Wolves to only have 6 starting Portugese in the line-up.

 

[Sarisbury Seagull]

Could be a 4-4-2:

Sanchez - White, Dunk, Webster, Burn - Ali J, Bissouma, Gross, Trossard - Welbeck, Maupay

BDB definitely had issues against Traore last time around, but last year he was very good in both of the Wolves games, if I remember it right.

He was excellent in both games against them last year. Just had the mare against Traore this season. Must say although I am pleased Traore is on the bench, he really hasn’t had a very good season overall.

I agree, looks like a 4-4-2 though could also be a 4-3-3 or 4-2-1-3 with AJ and Welbeck wide of Maupay and Trossard just ahead of Biss and Gross. Also possibly a 4-2-2-2 like we played a bit last season?

I love trying to work these out! [emoji23]

He's a full Polish international FFS. But Wookie reckons ill or injured so not very baffling for that reason,

 

[Coldeanseagull]

Not with Traore on the bench.

Yep, saw that... edited my post!

I suspect we might transition between the two. Ali J as a wingback is a bit scary because he's really not good at tracking back and didn't like his more defensive role under Hughton. But given the side Wolves have selected he could certainly do a job there and would also fit in nicely ahead of White in a 4.

Big game for the lad. Hopefully he steps up.

Yup, a lot of possibilities. Could also be Gross playing RWB or Ben White playing next to Bissouma or indeed Ali J taking Veltmans place...

Or a bit of everything, we've seen quite a few games where the players play in multiple positions at the same time, depending on attack/defense and where the ball is etc.

[MENTION=15297]Dick Head[/MENTION] which time zone are you operating in to always start your match days threads so early?

Great work by the way.

Who would have thought there were any benefits to benign prostate enlargement? Honestly, I'm up and down like a bride's nightie!

Half a gallon of cider doesn't help.

And?

 

[Coldeanseagull]

Hoping for a free kick outside the box and Dunky taking a quick one.
Moss will have a panic attack, blow the whistle, allow the goal, swallow the whistle disallow the goal, hope VAR bails out his incompetence as he looks forward to refereeing league one next season

He's not rated that much by my Polish friends here in Warsaw and has only played one full game for Poland.

 

[dangull]

I thought Brighton might have protected Bissouma for the last few games if he's off for big money in the summer.

 

[Dick Head]

BDB's b'day.
Going big on big goals from Burn.

Happy Birthday BDB​

 

[LamieRobertson]

Surprised to see such good odds for a Wolves win

 

[Swansman]

"Full Polish international FFS" also means very little.. Most "Polish full internationals FFS" are not good enough to play in the Premier League.

But he does play as a wingback / fullback right? As in his preferred position?

Gone mad and put £5 on burn to score and bha to win 33/1

So back to the original question which was "Why recall him?"

All of this.

To help Moder settle in?
