TP: "Our first four games have been good but we have to keep that going. We've had new faces come in so that will freshen it up"

TP: "We've started well. We've got a tough game now though. I have great respect for Chris and everyone at @OfficialBHAFC"

TP: "We have one or two little knocks. @GrzegKrychowiak and @KieranGibbs haven't played much football. I'll have to decide on them"

TP: "I have to speak to the medical people about @KieranGibbs & @GrzegKrychowiak. I've got a big decision to make about starting them"

TP: "@OfficialBHAFC were unfortunate not to beat Watford. They had good opportunities. It'll be a tough game down there"

I's start with Gibbs and Greg if they're anywhere near being fit and then replace them when they get tired.

It'll be much easier for them to start than to come on with 30 minutes left and try to get up to the pace of the game.

Tough call though. Reading between the lines, it sounds like TP is itching to start them.

I moved down to Brighton a few years back and my mate's on holiday so has let me borrow his ST for tomorrow.

Can't see anything but 3 points for the wrong Albion unfortunately. We'll be lucky to score a goal given the way the team is set up.

They did JH. I've just checked and that was Weds morning so probably Thursday by the time he got back, in which case he will probably be on the bench and Rodriguez up front, with McClean on the left, or Chadli/Burke, or Brunt with Gibbs at LB

Hope you're good mate

Got a ticket to Brighton Looking forward to it. Don't get to many away days any more unfortunately.

Same here. Only did a handful of away games last season. Gutted I can't make this.

Enjoy..

Can't stand Brighton. So I'd love nothing more than to see the Baggies hammer them.

That's always my worry with Pulis.

It doesn't matter who Albion buy, where will HE play them?

Like you said, JH, why play Nyom at LB when Gibbs and even Brunty is on the bench?

Why play with three defensive midfielders? Why go to Brighton with such fear??

The squad is good.

But there is still a big problem and it is the managers strange ways.

Selecting 3 holding midfielders was a very strange decision. Does Pulis not understand that he is just inviting pressure on our defence with that sort of selection.

2 wins, a draw and a defeat is a decent return but the matches are only going to get tougher now.

I'd go for the same line up as JH except i'd choose Burke ahead of Brunt.
