Sami Hyypia has clearly concluded more experience is needed in midfield to assist Albion with their relegation fight.

Hyypia seized the chance to invite clubless former Liverpool colleague Alou Diarra to train with the Seagulls.

It is bound to take the 33-year-old ex-France captain and participant in two World Cups time to get fully up to speed after 11 months without a competitive appearance.

In the meantime, at Wolves on Saturday, Hyypia has a couple of options to plug the central midfield experience gap.

Bruno, comfortable in possession, played there earlier in the season.

Moving the Spaniard into the middle of the park would have the additional benefit of getting another experienced campaigner into the side at right-back in compatriot Inigo Calderon.

The versatile Greg Halford offers a more physically imposing and agricultural alternative on his return to Molineux.

Most of the appearances Halford made for Wolves in the Premier League between 2009 and 2011 were in midfield or at right-back.
