[Albion] Brighton & Hove Albion vs Manchester City *** Official Match Thread ***

[Springal]

Even in the short time he has been on, Ali J looked the Albion player most likely to create something!

Indeed and did more than Connolly did getting close to through balls. The whole thing is massively baffling

 

[Icy Gull]

Well that was an absolute shit performance. Ryan and Propper had absolute nightmares.

We were embarrassed tonight...big time

 

[The Fits]

Speak to a neutral about that. Shocking. Absolutely gutless and shocking. One of those games that could have been doule figures and was at home!!

 

[Tom Hark Preston Park]

Dear Man City
PLEASE don't score more than five and up-furk all my bets.

Thanks

THPP

Cheers lads

No surprise so not worried about tonight. We are what we are and maybe I'm being negative but the bottom half of the Prem is at best all we are, so in my eyes we are 5th in 'our league' of the bottom 10.

No point in getting worked up about results like tonight but what does concern me slightly is that so far it's the defence thats kept us up in our 3 seasons to date, and yet Ryan, Bernardo, Webster, and Propper looked awful tonight. When Stephens ends up looking like our best player then that is a slight worry.

Roll on next season.

 

[Drebin]

I wouldn't worry, I don't imagine too many are bothering to watch, or passing much in terms of judgement. The scoreline is so par for the course. When I see another team has lost by around this margin I take one glance at the scoreline and move on to something else

This.

Last week it was Newcastle. This week it’s us. We move on.

 

[portslade seagull]

Wtf Ryan !!! Shocking he needs dropping

He wasn't all that tonight but then it ran through the team.

 

[lawros left foot]

Ha ha 5-0 you clowns. 3 years of stinking out the PL.

And yet have still only spent 10 days in the bottom 3 since we came up.

 

[Palacefinder General]

I'm sure he will be able to take the positives

Get the team down to Komedia first thing tomorrow to appear in an impromptu performance of ‘The Seagull’ by Chekhov?

 

[Wardy's twin]

Well that was shocking.

It was like watching a group of little boys taking on the grown ups.

I think a bunch of boys would have shown more commitment. Some of those players were appalling the opposition were better but no effort.

 

[Weststander]

They are dirty. Makes everyone else look poor. Yes, they lost against Saints somehow but even in that game they were disgusting. Liverpool should count themselves happy the season isnt another 10 games long.

ManC have lost at Chelsea and Stains in Restart.

ManU are destroying everyone.

 

[The Fits]

Feel just terrible for Ali J. I'd say he is our most productive attacking player and just isn't given a chance. **** the £17 million. Write it off. Move on. NEXT.
Our recruitment stinks.

 

[Eeyore]

Brighton have been terribly unlucky tonight. Could have won that

 

[Bold Seagull]

Think some people need a bit of perspective.

It’s going to be a mad transfer window. Potter has a lot of players on contract he probably doesn’t want.

We’ve got 7 points since restart, he’s earned the right to start planning for next season.

Yep tonight was shocking, but he’s entitled to be looking at some of his squad he hasn’t seen much of this year. What better time to do than with no paying fans in the stadium?

Let’s hope performances improved for the final 3 games, as much about preparation for next season as they are about this one.

 

[Reddleman]

Let’s be honest regardless of how good City are, it’s been a total embarrassment hasn’t it. An absolute shambles.

No it really hasn’t, getting beaten 5-0 by plucky is an absolute shambles. This team just put five past Newcastle and Burnley as well, both well ahead of us in th table. They even put 4 past Liverpool.

 

[Boroseagull]

That was the worst goalkeeping display I've ever seen from a Brighton keeper. I'm not normally one to criticise but that deserved it.

 

[portslade seagull]

Ali J and Stephen's actually made us look better

Agree completely

 

[Mancgull]

Ryan, Montoya and Propper were very poor. Not a game to get despondent about though. We seem to be focusing on certain games to get our required points. I fully expect Lamptey, Burn and Maupay to start against Southampton. Stephens has potentially forced his way ahead of Propper too.
