The first touch of the front 3 will be interesting. Who's gonna hold the ball up.

Great idea of Squad. Very happy to see Tavares in the team. I mean what's point of having him and not using him

Could be a few reasons for that, slight knock, bit off colour etc etc. Hardly a massive downgrade.

Collins does literally everything better than Wilson

Yeah… but what’s the deal with Sakamoto?

Think he’s injured

 

[Sky Blue Harry H]

My main concern with that Stoke team is that thug Pearson is playing - I'll be surprised if he doesn't try to take out O'Hare - he's up there with O'Nien for sh&thousery.

 

[Boicey]

Seems most are happy enough to give Tavares a go. Shouldn’t expect too much but hopefully at least a threat on the break.
Will be interesting.

 

[ProfessorbyGrace]

Ooook, that’s an…interesting…line up.

Hopefully it’ll pay off. ⚽️

 

[robbiethemole]

I think Robins has had a stroke with that side!

Todays team is bought to you by

OK Mrs Collins xx

Where’s tats?

Kitching scores a goal and is dropped while Thomas who was culpable for 2 goals retains his place. Very confusing

Hardly, just a bloke with working eyes

Illness

Good team! Pusb!!

I hope not, the kinky devil.

Right foot, left foot combo

 

[Alkhen]

Nothing wrong with that line up considering who is available. Godden hasn't done enough recently and having him or Palmer on the pitch would probably mean moving Haji from his most effective position. Might as well give Tavares a shot or what's the point of keeping him around.

Not like Wilson cost us in the first FA cup game against at Wednesday in the recent game he played

 

[Mild-Mannered Janitor]

Maybe he think rose and gooch don’t like being turned, long trip midweek, squad both good enough and big enough, trust in what he sees, some of those dropped have looked sluggish or mistakes.

 

[Brighton Sky Blue]

Got it wrong against Millwall
Fair enough to rotate on Wednesday
Don’t get this selection really but we’ll get an explanation in a few hours

 

[fernandopartridge]

I don't rate Wilson at all and think it's pretty bizarre that he's playing given Collins performances

Any streams to watch this performance?

 

[Brighton Sky Blue]

Sakamoto out with illness according to Twitter offal

 

[Marty]

Seems a bit of a strange line up. Keep the game tight then I think we'll go for it after 60 mins or so.

Awful at the start of the season, awful against Oxford, awful against Wednesday. He's just not good enough. Obviously we all hope he's Buffon-esque today.

It's most likely a fitness issue.

And I'm a bloke with wonky eyes - hence I don't think it's a massive downgrade

 

[COVKIDSNEVERQUIT]

team havent been told the team. Ohare last night didn’t know if he was playing or not. robins fed up with rumours and leaks to the extent he has set up a Twitter account to monitor rumours. players now keeping low on social media

Is Saddlebrains to blame ?

 

[djr8369]

Not convinced that line up has enough to beat Stoke but there’s options on the bench.

 

[coop]

Think he’s injured

Ill

 

[Brighton Sky Blue]

Team still not out yet for the warm up

 

[pusbccfc]

Taveres is mental really. If you told Robins he'd need to call him into a start on the RW 4 weeks ago he'd have been fuming.

 

[Jamesimus]

Life getting in the way of football for me at the moment so can’t be watching. Would like good updates please!

Anyone that thinks Wilson is as good as Collins is as mad as Ben Wilson.

Strange team but understandable giving some people a rest / Sakamoto being ill.

If it’s any consolation Stoke fans seem upset with their team. Looks as if it’s one picked to frustrate us rather than have a go at us.

 

[robbiethemole]

McNally central and Rose on the left of defence, are Schumacher and Robins trying to see who can put out the weirdest side??

 

[SkyBlueAussie]

Not sure if this match is the easiest of the two with the Preston match next week. I guessed he would rest most next Friday, but seeing Preston's league position atm I guess Robins knows best.
