It’s only because of the injuries and expected weird lineup I’m not confident. I don’t fear Brighton normally - think they’re just media darlings.

They're a strange side. Pretty on the eye but in theory easy to defend against as they're slow in their build up so with 2 banks of 4 you'd think you should be able to restrict them. Main problem is scoring goals at the moment and being at our new home I can imagine an anxious performance unfortunately when composure is needed in the final third

The fear is exactly the line up. Leeds were not all that and as soon as Arsenal got their measure yesterday they showed them up for what they will probably be this season. Fighting down the bottom.
We never laid a glove on that same leeds side. We need to try and stretch them both sides. Not surrender one of them at elland road. He might be a bit Marmite for many but Mcneil on the left i think has to start.

I like McNeil but he looked really unfit to me in the pre-season games for some reason.

So come on come on,
Get down to Bramley Moore Dock,
Wooo!

He looks knackered most of the time tbh.
It might well be Garner again but he looked so uncomfortable going forward.
He was fine just sitting and stopping daniel james.
At home we need someone giving brighton problems the other way.

Can't wait to get down there. 3-1 to the blues!

can’t believe today has come

I’m not confident of a win but that will change when that siren rings out

 

[Miked1e]

Pickford
Garner JOB Tarks McNeil
Gana KDH
Ndiaye Alcaraz Grealish
Beto

This is my hope for today!

That's just as funny as queuing up for 40mins at half time for a beer!
