Should Farke starts the same line-up which started against West Ham.

If you were Daniel Farke.....

Who would be your first three early subs vs Brighton, pending on no early injuries?

I haven't included Willy Gnonto as I'm unsure of his fitness to make the bench yet.

Bit of an impossible poll this as the score at the time would probably dictate it.

But I will go Piroe, Stach and James

On the assumption we are winning/drawing, Nmecha and James up top and at the risk of being controversial, Struijk (instead of the inevitable Gruev) as a DM

Jack has been first on for a few games this season, Farke thinks he's both a defensive and attacking sub. He has 6 appearances of 20 minutes plus from 8 sub chances (he started one game,) and one of 10-20 minutes. No one else comes close, so why am I the only Harrison vote so far?

James almost certainly irrespective of game situation, I think Farke wants to get his fitness back up

Stach (really should be starting unless unjured, easily the best buy in the summer) should be the third player. But I've a feeling Tanaka will start on the bench this time round

Keeping track over on archives. Anything under ten minutes isn't really beneficial to the player. coming on at the 85th or later is just to either waste time, rest a player or in pure desperation. I really only count over 20 towards minutes played

Yeah it will depend on weather we are behind or defending a lead.

Indeed, it does depend on the score at the time. :tup:

James 1st if fully fit, give Brenden a rest
Stach 2nd for Tanaka
Piroe 3rd for DCL.
As Cjay said, everything is dependent on the score at the time.

To play as a 3rd CB if we were hanging onto a lead.

I think Stach will be the only change on Saturday, unless Gudmundsson is unfit to start.

James, Stach & Piroe.

In the unlikely event that we have lead to defend then Struijk instead of Piroe.
