How many of our players will he book for getting tackled?

[Chris Pontprennau Blues]

I would rest our centre half's - how many we got fit?

[City123]

McGuinness & Brown are out aren't they? That leaves Morrison, Flint & Nelson.

I wonder if Tom Davies will get another outing at left back?

Bakare played in pre season

They could rest the centre halves by getting the strikers to score.

Our inability to create and score goals from midfield or strikers is still worrying.
Yes we are 6th after 4 games and I should be glad that goals come from anywhere but the fact that 5 games in and both Moore and Collins are yet to score, I think, demonstrates our low quality.
Sides will begin to know our game and try to “snuffle” our free kicks and corners, thereby pushing us down the table.
I would like to see where we are after 10-12 games

I get your point, but Moore scored against Blackpool.

I think Brown is ok. Hope so as a couple on the defence need a rest. Think Davies will be left back, with Ng on right.

[splott parker]

Get Moore in tomorrow night, give him eff all, no crosses, balls just beyond him etc. Make him look shite, transfer to a Premier League club indeed!!!!!!

Brighton have got a lot of injury absences for tonight.

Ah, away win it is then!

[PhyllisStant]

Vaulks and Ng have both played center back at previous clubs if we were looking to rest anyone. Alternatively we could play a back 4.

I'd also quite like to see Sang given a run out in midfield.

Sang and Bowen in CM

[ninian opinian]

Any idea of the crowd expected

[Hilts]

Bowen and Almeida starting. Is Almeida a left back?

I thought a defensive mid.
I'd assume Bowen at right back and NG left back.

Thought he was more a CDM myself but haven't seen his name in the DVP thread for a while

CDM or occasionally in a back 3 for the u23s,

Ah ok.

[dembethewarrior]

3 at the back 5 in midfield 2 up top? Or have we really started Vaulks up behind the striker

[Jonezy17]

I fancy Cardiff tonight 2-1 with the injuries Brighton have.. bluebirds!!

[dembethewarrior]

CDM or occasionally in a back 3 for the u23s,

That rings a bell.
