[Albion] Who is your Fab (attacking) Four to start against Luton?

[Bozza]

So many options, so few spots to fill...

 

[Thunder Bolt]

March, Adringa, Pedro, Welbeck, and then bring on Mitoma & Enciso at 60 mins, taking off March and Welbeck.

This all depends on fitness and injury status.

 

[Tom Bombadil]

We have some serious strength in depth in the attacking positions. The question is how do you keep that lot happy. There are going to be players getting a lot less game time than they think they deserve.

 

[Mustafa II]

No disrespect to Luton, but I reckon we could and will play 5 of them.

Don't think RDZ will mess about with this fixture. He will want GOALS galore.

 

[The Wizard]

I don’t f**king know, okay.

I wasn’t ready for this question at *checks watch* 11AM on a Thursday.

RDZ rotates quite a bit anyway and also wants to win everything. We will need all those players if we are going to win all 4 competitions.

For Luton I am going for;
Pedro
Ferguson
Mitoma
Adringa

Yup. I can't see Buonaotte getting many minutes. Obviously a huge talent but at 18 he feels miles off the rest. Surely makes sense to loan him out? Yes we have lots of games but we have an embarrassment of riches in the final third.

 

[KZNSeagull]

Ferguson, Pedro, Mitoma, Adingra (but only if his name is spelt correctly on the teamsheet )

I'm in agreement with this except I think Mitoma will start, with Adingra subbed on for him.

 

[Farehamseagull]

Lallana starts every game for me when fit so:

March, Lallana, Mitoma and Joao Pedro to start.

With Enciso, Adingra, Welbeck and Ferguson first choice options to come on subject to state of the game and injuries.

 

[Farehamseagull]

Agreed and despite his upturn in form, unless we have some injuries, I really can't see Undav getting enough minutes to keep him happy either with Joao Pedro, Ferguson and Welbeck as the focal point options.

 

[Stumpy Tim]

Mitoma, March, Pedro and Ferguson

European games, cup games as well as league games. It's going to be quite hectic.

I think – and hope – he will. Some of his runs and movement in the run-in games last season were fantastic. I certainly wouldn't say he was miles off the rest.

Also, @Bozza, I might be being WHOOOSHED, but who's Adringra? There's possibly a thread of its own in there: a team of misspelled Albion players, managed by Chris HOUGHTON, of course...

On a related note, I know he was outstanding last night, but I'm not sure I'm ready to stick 'Ivory Si' straight into the starting lineup for Luton (as many others seem to be). Or, again, am I missing something?

 

[Nobby Cybergoat]

I could pick you a front 4, but tomorrow I'd pick you another.

I'm leaning towards dropping March and Welbeck, as crazy as it sounds to play

Adringa Pedro Ferguson Mitoma

But my god its tight. We've never had anything like so many riches

Definitely short memories from some. March will start when fit, especially when RDZ has stated he wants him to score 20 goals.

 

[The Fits]

CM would be even more competitive wouldn't it? Gross, Caicedo, Gilmour, Alzate, Dahoud, Milner (plus kids) for 2 positions!
That's 6 players that when fit you'd expect at least on the bench.

Did he? When? And over what time period? Not a season, SHIRLEY?

Nobody here is slating him or not rating the fella or doubting what he brings. Those days are passed. But new players have come in and made an immediate case for inclusion.

Plenty who deserve to start won't

 

[Nobby Cybergoat]

Ahhh shit. Forgot about lallana
