[Albion] Brighton & Hove Albion vs Burnley *** Official Match Thread ***

[atomised]

I thought Bissouma was lazing around in France

I actually knew Webster was out, one of my first ever times
ITK, but I didn't share it on here because I didn't want to "leak" team news. I'm such a good fan. I heard it was going to be Roberts though as he did all the set piece drills in training.

Incredibly, we suddenly seem short of Centre Backs

 

[BLOCK F]

Webbo does appear to be a bit injury prone.

Hopefully the pre match checks are very brisk today!

Dunk will be back for Villa, but Webster's is a groin strain (usually 4-6 weeks). Lamptey's minutes will be managed very closely.

Webster injured

I thought he was hurt on Tuesday when he stretched for an interception and got up feeling his groin.

Really should be a strong enough line up to win, but with the weather like a summers day in Burnley I fear they have much more practice in these conditions

Apart from Webster being out, I’m LOVING that team!

Was worried Mac Allister looked injured towards the end of Tuesday so delighted to see him back. That midfield looks great!

Precautionary pitch walk/inspection from Kevin Friend and his assistants.

Where's Webster?


Is this going to be 4-4-2 - or what?

I'm guessing 4-3-3, Biss, Lallana and Mac in CM, Biss to drop back slightly Mac to go forward and Lallana to playmake. On the left will probably be Moder, Welbeck on the right swapping every now and then, with Maupay up front.

Sounds right to me.

Naylor says it is precautionary and will be back for Villa.

I am an idiot I meant Moder.

I'm not questioning Mr Naylor but I've actually heard opposite from within the club. We'll just have to see, but I rarely get info and when I do it's always been correct previously. Hope he is back!!!

Not good that Webster is out, but against Burnley Duffy might be the better choice anyway.

 

[FannieMac]

I like the look of the line-up. Welbeck ahead of Trossard could work well

It turns out I didn’t need to pay for parking earlier. I have found a nice spot on the M25.

Got their two top forwards back in action today too - Duffy and Veltman will have to be on it! Only one defender on the bench as well - don't get injured today, lads!
