What's Brighton's injury status?

Hopefully all of them will be back

Then we might have a similar situation to Friday night where a few have to go off again

Heard that Hemed is the only one likely to make the bench, at a push.

The rest are un-workable.

Also heard that James Wilson wasn't moving at all well for them in the second half and may be carrying an injury too, and Liam Rosenior was struggling too.

Full team were struggling

Tends to happen when you're playing the massive in a semi final

Don't think they were injured, there legs turned to jelly under the sound from the massive. Might be all back for home game.

I'll say what I said the other night, which I felt bad for as it filled me with so much positivity about the second leg. And I don't wish for any player to get injured (apart from Jamie Ward).

 

Each and everyone of those players will have been desperate to carry on, for some of them, the biggest game they'll have ever played in. A massive game, live on SKY, the know they're a weakened side anyway without Dunk and Stephens.

 

They won't have wussed out and gone off cos they're feeling the pace a bit or feeling a bit sore. 

They will have been suffering badly from injury. 

 

Hemed probably had the easiest decision to make to go off, but for Goldson to follow him straight away...then Sidwell...then Knockeart. It will have been a decision all of the final three were forced to make. It'll have been 'there's no way I can carry on'.

If they had carried on FO, chances are they would have been a weak link to be exploited.

Think Sidwell had a massive decision to make as he was replaced by a kid who had never played in the league, and Knockeart too knowing him going off would leave them a man light.

 

Think, apart from Hemed, none of them tried to give it a go. They were done. 

 

They may recover Hemed enough to be an impact sub from the bench, but would be incredible if they got anyone else back.

Hardly surprised it happened to them when you considered the intensity of the game they had against boro. We was completely fresh and I bet the intensity of our play with 11 fresh pair of legs played some part in those injuries

Hemed tried he ran about for 10 mins and then went off

If the whole team were struggling it just sounds like terrible preparation

Having to play 1000 miles an hour vs Boro to get promoted, and play a chunk of the game with 10 men, has probably not helped.

 

We did our jobs vs Cardiff meaning we could rest 10 players vs Wolves, and made 11 changes from that game for the Brighton game.

Having a quick look on their forum, most think the below will be their starting line up, as for subs everyone in agreement that which ever 7 fans turn up first Will get on their bench they are completely stretched.

Stockdale

Bruno

Dunk

Greer

Bong

Skalak

Rosenior

Kayal

Murphy

Wilson

Boldock

Lua Lua and that lad Towell only recognised players to make the bench
