Brighton (A) - Pre match thread - Finally!

[chestervegasblue]

This is the lineup I'd like to see. I imagine Yaya will start, but Danilo's pressing in preseason really impressed me.

I imagine that Pep will probably stick him at LWB instead of Sane. I also have a sneaky suspicion that Sterling will start...possibly in place of Aguero.

Brighton fan in peace..

Firstly it's a pleasure to be hosting you in our first game, for us to play the favourites for the league at home in front of the world is the icing on the the cake for a club that has bounced back from the brink.

Genuine supporters understand we won't be able to compete against you guys and we are more focused on ensuring we do ourselves proud and keep the score line respectful! In all honesty the season starts for us the week after at Leicester where we have far more of a chance of securing some points!

Just picking up on an earlier post, here at BHAFC we are slightly unique in that as a club we try to make the whole matchday experience as welcoming and accommodating as possible, I'm also pretty certain we are the only PL club that welcomes away fans into our home concourses after the game. With that in mind it would be great to see a few City fans after the game in the North Stand concourse and believe it or not you will be welcome!

I take on board the comments about the standard of drinks available in concourses but again we are slightly different in that we have guest Ales and also local Ales from Sussex.

In terms of pre match you are also welcome in our supporters bar which is located next to the club shop and although it tends to get busy, if you arrive in plenty of time you shouldn't have a problem enjoying a pre match beverage whilst engaging with our home support.

Getting out of the Amex can prove difficult, it really is worth staying behind for a beer afterwards, give it 30/40 minutes and the train queues and car parks are well on their way to clearing.

Once again, it's a privalidge to host you guys, I genuinely hope you enjoy The Amex, and if you were kind enough to allow us the odd point, a beer will be waiting for you in the North Stand concourse after the game.

Please feel free to ask any questions to make your matchday experience as easy as possible.

Cheers mate. I think I might do this

Like the look of that, no convinced about Danilo in a holding role though. Specialist position. Yaya or Fern, for me.

Think we'll go back to 4-3-3 soon too, hope so anyway. Make some extra room for Sterling/Silva.

We should be putting these to the sword tomorrow. We've got far more quality than them. Expecting us to really hit a few past them.

Hi bud - wish you well this season, but I cannot think of Brighton and not remember this with gritted teeth ...

[lloydy]

I could be the only one cheering in the North Stand if City score!

Having watched Brighton a few times last season we should be all over them

Agreed.. I won't be in North stand be sitting quietly in West stand.. murmuring pretending to be downcast at 0-4 ! Not often takes me 10 minutes to go watch city live.

Welcome Sid, hope you enjoy your stay in the top flight, fingers crossed it will be more than just one season for ya!

See you after the game then, I'm definitely not one for standing in queues, so I'll be having a beer there after, fancy it @Danamy ?

Swap Sane for Danilo and Danilo for Yaya, and I'd go with that.

Many permutations for this team, there is so much quality in the forward areas now that we have a full compliment. With the addition of Bernado we really are spoilt for choice.

I'd personally like to ditch the back 3, I rate Sane highly and think there is a serious player in there. Don' like taking him out but if Pep is to use a back 3 then it's going to be difficult.
