Pre Match Brighton v Leicester

[City Fan]

As much as we'd all like to see Benalouane playing in his natural role as a tricky winger, unfortunately he can't because he's not in the Premier League squad.

Good point. My grandmother probably isn’t either.

Maybe it suggests that Ghezzal and Maddison are out tomorrow, but he’d rather play Okazaki or Benalouane or my 90 year old grandmother than Diabate.

All as may be, but Diabate has made the odd bench appearance recently.

Benalouane attempting to trap a ball could result in the ball fizzing at head height towards our striker, it could work. Less chance of him kicking someone in the back of the head out on the wing too.

I am reminded of Frank Worthington's admiration for modern footballers who "can trap a ball further than I could kick it."

Possibly referring to Robbie Savage?
