You need 7.

Great bounce this.

Dunk, Webster, Sanchez (maybe), Bissouma, Maupay. Struggling beyond that. Burn, but I'm probably basing that on his height.

Certainly can't see many others getting in a scrap.

I think Ryan was one of those 7 prior to this season. In terms of fighters, I think we have 4

Dunk
Lallana
Maupay
Andone
Connolly (maybe)

That said, I've maintained for years that with the exceptions of our really excellent promotion winning teams we've been far too nice a team to play against. I'd love a prime or Premier League version of Barnes, Greer, Carpenter, Rogers, Oatway in the team. Obviously, they'd probably cost £50m but I just miss that scrappiness of someone always in the refs ear

Connelly might be possibly, not 100% of Maupay , he talks the talk but, I reckon Davy P could be, Alzate, despite his good boy looks could be, he is certainly a walking yellow card on the ptich

Maupay's not missing out on a ruck.

What he does in the ruck is neither here nor there.


The criteria for the 7 is:-

'Not shirking when the honour of the club, teammate, shirt and badge needs defending'

Not sure about Lallana, he'd be worried about messing his hair up.

Lallana nowhere near the 7 for me.

He's here to get fit and start making us play.


The 7 are needed to make sure he gets to that position sooner rather than later.

Lallana isn't as squeaky clean as his hair would make you think. This was in an under 23's game when he was trying to get minutes under his belt after being out injured. I know the Spurs lad involved too as he went to the school I used to work at.

Would probably go with: Dunk, Webster, White, Lallana, Mupauy...then we run out.

Really? White and Webster are far to soft for me. Thanks think softness is a huge part of our problem and think the small few that would have anything about them are Dunk, Andone and Maupay.

Hate to say it but we are strictly 2nd division :down:

Webster is normally involved if there is an argument with someone in the pitch. White has that chavy little shit demeanor to him.
And one for sure but I don't know what is happening with him.

White learned Chavvy Little Shit in Leeds in order to fit in....it’s only temporary.

If Sergio Romero ain't happening, lets get Sergio Ramos instead. He'd cover the shorftall in our 7.

Second div was perfect: Chippy, Charlie, FDM, Harty, Cullip, Rogers, Deano - that lot would IRON OUT any bunch of PL prima donnas

Remember chatting to Rogers about this when he was helping coaching Junior’s team. Think we’d just lost to Forest or similar and I asked him what he thought the main problem was.....

‘Not enough ‘agg’..........we’re just so ****ing WEAK’ [emoji23][emoji23]

You seem to be forgetting Chris Hughton, yes he only had one yellow card in his career, why?
What referee had the balls to discipline him, when as they approach they hear him start up the fork lift.
We only witnessed the actions, which were designed to intimidate the officials from a distance, but trust me, they knew what those actions meant.

Forgive me if this has been posted elsewhere in the thread, I'm just being lazy to read back through. But forget who the Albion's best 11 are, who are the Albion's ultimate 7 fighting the opposition in the tunnel. The "Magnificent Seven" you could say.
I shall go with;
Carpenter
Case
Cullip
Horton
Kraay
Oatway
Rougvie
