They spent some £60 Mill in pre-season on Webster, Clarke, Trossard and Maupay.Mooy arrived on a season-long loan. Trossard, Maupay & Mooy look dangerous asa unit. We will need to be alert & hopefully play with some passion, espically going forwards. If we do then 2-1 to us; if we paly like last season its another loss, sadly Wow that's different!

Webster appears to be their weak link at the back. Attack him and we should win. If they set up like least season, and like Watford on Saturday, then we wont win. However I think they will push forward leaving space at the back to attack.
It's 106 miles to Chicago, we got a full tank of gas, half a pack of cigarettes, it's dark... and we're wearing sunglasses. |

However I think they will push forward leaving space at the back to attack. One of those ball-playing central defenders whose style in the past has been compared to that of John Stones.It suits his game to play alongside a more traditional stopper.I know that a few years ago, Steve Cotterill rated him highly and he might still do. In terms of weak links in the Brighton defence, Alzate is no right-back and didn't look comfortable there against Wolves.I suspect they will not have him playing there against us.

This is the game, as far as fans are concerned, is one half of games per season that we ALL look forward to & 'need' to win above all other games.
This operation, will make the 'Charge Of The Light Brigade' seem like a simple military exercise. |

That's only because they beat us easily at the Gaymex thanks to a very very poor performance. Surely we can't play that badly again? I predict 1-1.

it is a good job that we are playing at home. recent events indicate that should we be kettled and taunted by Brighton supporters at the Amex, we might be in trouble should we ask any of their supporters if their boyfriends know where they are. COYP

Albion apparently gave a strong performance at Liverpool,narrowly losing 2-1 and secured a good 2-1 away win at Arsenal last week.A useful point against Wolves on Saturday.

Very hard to call. I'd take the point to continue our unbeaten run. But I'd love a win with Dunk or Duffy scoring a last minute OG.

I agree with others, this could go either way. I'm going to go with a patient 1-0. Edited by dollardays (09 Dec 2019 10.17pm)
