Port Vale FC v Brighton and Hove Albion FC FA Cup

Acker79 · Jan 25, 2014

Bench looks really defensive, except Ulloa who has been under performing, and Lualua who is coming back from injury.

Also a bit of concern over upson - I seem to remember reading something about him being rested v reading because he has a knee that often bothers him, shouldn't he be rested if we've got a tough game on tuesday?

Other than that, I think the team is as expected for me.

Interesting one as I thought Upson would be rested ahead of others. But we don't have that many options at the back just now do we?

Maybe Greers calf is still a problem?

I gather he told Jones that he was very focused on this game.

Grabban looking quality for Bournemouth, would have fitted in well here from what I'm seeing

You must be watching a different game to me then as he looks shite!

A mate of mine is big Charlton fan and he thought Obika was good when he played with them. Be interesting to see how he gets on today.

Since I posted that and Bournemouth have gone two down he has certainly deteriorated :lolol:

Lol that is what i was thinking

Who from the first team is actually missing from the squad today? I mean available and missing.

Super Steve Earle · Jan 25, 2014

So do we assume Kuczak, Bruno, Greer, Ward, Bridcutt, David, Lua Lua, Buckley, Ulloa are under offer and not in the right frame of mind? Or are we tossing a potential money spinning Cup tie in the 5th Round out the window too?

Next they'll be telling him he should take a shot on goal occasionally when he has sight of goal.

BensGrandad · Jan 25, 2014

Is there any significance in the fact that Kuszczak is not in the squad

At the game and pitch looks like it could do with a break from the rain, other than that come on you seagulls

Sincerely hope that he is having a rest and nothing more

Have only watched since it was 0-2 and Grabban has looked poor - having said that he just had a shot

Eh? Our side is FAR stronger than Port Vale's. What you on about?

brighton_tom · Jan 25, 2014

Lots of changes in the squad today... Would love another impressive performance from March and Chicksen.

A 2-1 win for the Albion today!

He is one of the two we couldnt replace the other being Ulloa, any other player we could replace bar those two.

Was he against Reading?
