I dont get the Toney joke.

Who's Patterson, did we buy that full-back from Everton last week? hope not, he looks ropey. They need Seamus back.

Strange line up for Brighton. Maybe they're going to let us win just to piss off Tottingham?

Never heard of Ayari?

He's in as the Brighton fans want to give their new song for him an airing.

Brighton left Dunk, Caciedo and Mitoma all on the bench so mix and match 11 for them.

Isn't Estupinan normally in their first 11 as well?

Yes he's had a brilliant season for them.

This is certainly a game to get a goal up in first 20 minutes and hopefully be in comfortable position by hour mark before they start to bring some of their big hitters on.

Brighton do actually concede a fair few goals if you play through them quickly, no idea who's playing on the left side for them as assume Gross is their RB today.

I hope Buendia has a cameo as I would like to see how his and Buenanotte's styles differ: I'm guessing that they'll be like (good)day and (good)night.

That is a very good point!  I had forgotten about their beef.

I see Man City have picked a weaker side.  No doubts protecting their two finals.

Their focus should be on themselves, we'd do the same. And their weaker side would most likely qualify for the CL.

Wasn't Coutinho on the bench at Wolves?

Pretty sure he's played his last game for us regardless of whether we make europe.

My seat in the Lower Holte appears to come with a square of blue sticky back plastic today , presumably to help me create an atmosphere . How very Fulham .

Hopefully light blue, and tifo related.
