Brighton dangermen?

[chris311080]

Leonardo ulloa? 23 goals in 50 games says Buxton and keogh need to keep an eye on this one. Brighton rate him as a 6.5m player according to today's tabloids

On that alone. What price goes on Chris martins head?

[southernram22]

anyones a dangerman if you don't mark them

[Rapid]

A?6.5m

he's not that good! he's a decent target man and dangerous in the air but the guy certainly has his limitations. chris martin's a much better footballer. it's the same old story with jake vs Keogh though. the brighton lad will have a much higher value because they paid A?2m or so for him. nobody will want to give derby much for martin because we got him on a bargain freebie.

Was watching the Late Kick off show last night and Brighton are one of the local teams, they really fancy their chances on this one. They'e on a real high after the forest match.

They're defence is what they think is their main strength, so I suspect we'll be facing a parked bus rather than any specific danger men.

BRING. IT. ON.

I watched their game against Yeovil and wasn't impressed. their defence was a shambles when they were playing open football. like you say, their defence will only be a strength if they park the bus.

Ulloa wasnt great at our place, but was only one game.

The player that worries me, if he starts as just back from long injury is Mikal-Smith. Works incredibly hard and a good footballer. Remember, they paid A?3m for him!

That Lingard scored a few for Birmingham earlier in season, and a Utd product. Hopefully having some attack minded players like that will give our midfield space to pick them off.

I expect us to want to play a counter attacking style down there with Jeff in for that reason over Will

As said, they are a solid defence. I can see the margin (either way) only being one goal, so hopefully all to play for back at Pride Park

lingaard was by far and away their most dangerous looking player against Yeovil. he looks a good player. forsyth will have to keep his eye on will buckley too. he's no push over. they've got some good players but so have we :-)

As you say Rapid...they have plenty to worry themselves about. Dont get to be top scorers for nothing! I can just see there centre half going right through Chris M inside first 10mins. they hurt him, our system could go to pot!!

He's a strong & clever player, defenders have been trying that all season so there's no need to fear. Even if he did get hurt, we have lots of attacking options

Sammon???

For me, Bamford better option to cover for Martin. As you say, he's a strong lad, and will hold his own I am sure. Just a tactic that could be deployed by any manager who is savvy to our way of playing
