Apparently have most of their defence out injured or just back so could be good for us.....

We should be solid at the back with a bit more confidence up top and bodies around dcl...

We known they're good up top but ropey at the back
About time we got something going our way.
 


Should be going there to win. Bowing down to teams like Brighton, Bournemouth, Fulham etc is sickening. Even Dyche slapped these all over and even should have won last season.
Frankly all those teams have better players than us.
If we want to beat Brighton we have to sit deep and defend and counter with precision. The only team theyve beaten in the bottom half this season are ManU and spurs. Teams that believe that 'bowing down' is below them.
 
Few twitter rumours that mangala is out for a few weeks with a hamstring injury .

Hope not. Bit of a problem if he's out as Gana will then be massively overworked having to track Joao Pedro and Mitoma coming inside to central areas. Sort of opposition where Doucs as number 8 will be found out massively with their pressing style although he'll still remain useful from set pieces. Big shame Garner couldn't return a week earlier and feature in the two home games as you could just drop him in at 8 for an hour but doubt he's in contention to start after hardly playing since October.

A point tomorrow will be a very good result. Would expect a very low block indeed so need to be good on the set plays as that will be the main hope of scoring especially if Dunk isn't around.
 
When asked about injuries David Moyes said 'everything's much the same'. No mention of Mangala, so he's hopefully OK. I wonder if we will see both Garner and Tim on the bench.

Could be a late one and not wanting to alert Brighton. Was the same with Branthwaite earlier this season. Rumours on socials but nothing at the press conference and then he was out injured for a few weeks.

Hopefully Mangala has travelled if anyone saw them at the airport?
