Your Albion XI to start on Saturday

[RM-Taylor]

A few weeks back, Gus said that he wanted some of the youngsters to have a few games before the end of the season, so with this in mind, I hope he sticks to his word and gives Walker, Barker, Brinkhurst and Cook some minutes on Saturday.

To many kids in the starting line up.Never happen.Gus will use 1 and no more then 2.You will probably see a few on the bench though.

Must be 20+ for the reserves

 

[Ninja Elephant]

Brezovan, Hoyte, Painter, Elphick, Virgo, Bennett, Crofts, Arismendi, Hendrie, Cox, Barnes.

I had to include Cox. But seriously, I think Virgo will play and be told to prove his worth (though I think he's done enough already) and I think Arismendi will continue in the centre, with Calderon not being risked at right back. Hoyte will probably be available in the summer, and I suspect Poyet will want to see him at right back to decided whether he's worth pursuing.

Non-league keeper we got on loan.. can't remember his name but should be given a go!

Murray
Holroyd

Like your idea of giving the youngsters a bash, but i wouldn't go chucking in a youth player in goal or at cb. One mistake can be costly, and will destroy their confidence. Stick the lad we got in on loan for a couple of games. Surely he deserves a chance to play at this level at least once!?
Virgo should be given a chance, as he is playing for his future.
I really don't like seeing Hendrie in that squad for whatever reason. Great player but has such an ego on him.. can only be bad news. Stick Nav in and break the play down.
Wouldn't mind seeing barker given half an hour at the end but fail to see the point of having him up there with Barnes as Barnes is barely more experienced himself. Barker is still very young, we should be focussing more on our investment in Holroyd for the moment, and give him a chance up top.
Woud love to see OGH get a few minutes of playing time aswell. We all know this is likely to be his last season, and it'd be great to be able to give him the send-off he deserves.

Not sure why we would bother playing Hoyte or Arismendi, assuming they will be back with their parents clubs at the end of the season.

that's a big assumption

Silly, by all means have some of the kids on the bench, but dont start them!

 

[seagullsovergrimsby]

The youngsters could find they get a place on the bench for the last 2 games but I dont see Gus giving any of them a starting position. This is a club going places.

He played last night for the reserves (unless we have two)

Brinkhurst stars in Albion rout From The Argus)

 

[Forster's Armband]

Gus has already said he want's the team back playing well before he changes things also we are not mathmatically safe. Also we don't wanna risk losing anymore at home!

 

[Captain Pugwash]

Gus did say he would give Walker at least 45 minutes in the arsegas a coupe of weeks back
