Brighton and Hove Albion v Derby County ****Official Match Thread****

[Kalimantan Gull]

Half-time I'd give them all 8's for attacking and the lot 4's for defending. Looking great going forward and knife through butter when they come at us. Need Ince in there.

 

[the right footed denilson]

To be fair derby look like will score every time they attack, we don't.

This. We're out of our depth. It would be a total nightmare going up this season.

To be fair derby look like will score every time they attack, we don't.

That's my major problem with us under OG, we are so slow to get the ball into an attacking position, in fact I would seriously question a team that can't defend against us. Complete B****x

 

[Husty]

JFC is not offering us anything but problems. Get Ince on Oscar.

THIS!!!!!!!!!

JFC has been DIRE for a while I do not have idea why we persevere

 

[East Preston Gull]

C.M.S and lindgard for the second half please.

 

[tinycowboy]

Come on boys, keep going. You are not the second best side in this game. I am fuming at this scoreline, but not fuming at the team - they are really playing rather well. However, there's no doubting the danger when Derby break.

 

[hart's shirt]

We didn't get any luck with the bar 12 months ago against Palace.

Woodwork out.

 

[Tyrone Biggums]

They have had all the luck, but we're not good enough.

 

[Farehamseagull]

Ulloa is completely isolated and we could do with more width. JFC is having a stinker. Bring on Lua Lua and Ince I say. Bloody go for it.

Agreed. JFC looks way out of his depth. I'm actually shocked Oscar has picked the same midfield 3 who were dominated by a weak Forest midfield on Saturday.

On the positive side, Calde and Lingard have been superb.

 

[FamilyGuy]

We can beat this lot.

What he said!

 

[RM-Taylor]

Derby look so much better than us. Orlandi and JFC poor in the middle of the park. Next goal is massive, if they score it it will end up 4 or 5. Big big 45 mins comin up

 

[hitony]

How the **** anyone can say we are the better side when we are losing is beyond me!!!

If we have 99.99999% of the play as far as I'm concerned if we lose we are NOT the better side!

The better side will be the winners............

Not sure how bringing on Ince is going for it. Would rather see Mackail-Smith for Buckley and Lua-Lua for JFC, move Calde to midfield and go 3 -5-2

 

[RM-Taylor]

We're the better side.

We're losing.

Bugger.

which game are you watching?

 

[Tyrone Biggums]

I hope that bald **** has a look at the replay at HT and realises he owes us a penalty.

 

[the right footed denilson]

And, sadly, jfc is way out of his depth.

 

[GreersElbow]

I'm going to say this now.

JFC really isn't up to scratch, he has been awful. Orlandi is being constantly bullied off the ball, we're crossing into a box with only Ulloa in it surrounded by 4-5 Derby players.
We have openings to shoot, but choosing to pass sideways or backwards. Buckley may well have a knock.

Why are we not playing Kemy and Ince together in the midfield? Why on Earth has Kemy not been played all season?

It's frustrating, because for the first 15 minute we were playing great football. Garcia really does need to step up the urgency in the squad, otherwise, we've got little chance turning a deficit into surplus on their turf..

 

[Northern Monkey]

Ulloa isolated, midfield being outfought, defence looks all at sea when Derby hit on the counter. It's all looking a bit grim.

 

[East Preston Gull]

Lose 2-1 at home, then up there with nothing to lose and win 3-0. I dreamt this. It will happen.....:-D

 

[Man of Harveys]

It's only a QUARTER time. We're very far from out of it yet.
