[Albion] AFC Bournemouth vs Brighton & Hove Albion *** Official Match Thread ***

[GT49er]

Starting to wonder if we might benefit from going down. We can then have a clear out of Stephens, Bong, Montoya and Webster. Get Knocky back too.

Fair points ...................... until the last one.

Muff keeper MOM. I can't remember but he's not the first goalie to be MOM against us is he?

 

[SollysLeftFoot]

Is it Potters fault that he’s got such a mediocre squad of dross tho?

We have a specialist recruitment department and we’re stuck with 36 year old Murray backing up a Championship striker. I like Maupay but that’s the harsh truth. I don’t entirely blame the manager for this.

No, but the manager has to show tactical nouse and getting the best out of what he has. We stayed up twice in the row with a weaker team. This is down to team selection and tactics.

I thought they announced Webster as their man of the match.

 

[worthingseagull123]

I wouldn't. Took 34 years to get back and we're going down without so much of a whimper. If someone can keep us up, I'd take it tomorrow. Sams a specialist in this scenario. Potter most certainly isn't.

In the Prem we’d always be there to just make up the numbers

The problem is pace, pace and more pace.We must be the slowest team in the EPL.

And therein lies the main problem.

But even quicker plays wont help if we dont have the bottle for a fight. And Im not seeing it.

 

[Simster]

Why is potter blindsided by Webster? And what has Murray done to his wife ffs

I am baffled as to why Webster is the scapegoat. He was Ok against Villa and hasn't been our worst player here either. For me, the issue is the naive defending as a unit, and the pretty powder puff bollox when we were running the first half hour, and created ONE chance.

Conversely, AFCB took over for 10 mins in the first half, scored 2 and might have scored 4. The pace of their front men overwhelmed our back line and made our defenders look completely village.

not just pace in the legs, its speed of thought. Our Midfield are not quick enough

Is this Junior ban the ban ?

 

[Hugo Rune]

Awful fapping keeping.

Will the ball drop our way?

Will it f***!

 

[redoubtable seagull]

Gotta be something to do with the £20m price tag.

Bristol must be laughing all the way to the bank..

I have mates who are City fans and were gutted to see him go and said we were getting a very good player who was ready for the step up.
I’ll have to prepare them for the bad news that they were wrong.

 

[Weststander]

***** Kev didn't need to send one of ours off tonight. With Propper and Stevens playing together it's like being a man down, they just don't play well together.

But the lickers have told us we’ve created chance after chance tonight, we should’ve been leading 0-6 at one stage.

So Propper, Stephens and the midfield must’ve been amazing.

Newcastle score twice in injury time to draw , unbelievable

 

[saafend_seagull]

Newcastle just scored twice in a minute.

He can only do so much.

I think GP has been dealt a harsh hand. This squad is still largely he same as the one that stunk out the PL last year.

Recruitment team has let the club down by leaving us some woefully short up front.

We'll learn from it
