Brighton & Hove Albion vs Middlesbrough *** Official Match Thread ***

[RM-Taylor]

I suspect BZ sooner rather than later - but not sure who will come off, maybe a winger and have 3 up front?

Personally I'd bring Crofts and Zamora on for the two wingers and go 4-3-3, harsh on van la Parra as he's been our best player first half

 

[sjamesb3466]

Yep, probably right. Looking through blue tinted glasses a bit. Not the best aerial challenge you'll ever see though was it!

We are all guilty of the old blue tinted specs from time to time. Not a good challenge and would have been pissed off if one of our players got booked for such a stupid challenge that was unlikely to gain anything.

Come on the Albion, lets gain back some pride at least.

Interested to see what CH does in the 2nd half. He's got to change things - we don't look remotely like scoring.

Pretty glum where I'm sitting in LWS

Nothing is the answer.

 

[Stat Brother]

I don't know why everyone is all doom and gloom.

You knew I couldn't make the game due to work.
But I'm home now, have showered and am wearing THE lucky t-shirt.

3-2 to the good guys.

 

[portlander]

Looking better already

 

[Goldstone_groover]

Really struggling against their midfield, who in fairness are the best in the division.

Adam Clayton really gives them The Edge.

 

[sjamesb3466]

We look like conceding at every corner. Greer, BFG and Hemed need to start imposing themselves in our box. Same goes for Dunk when he is on the pitch as he only seems to win headers in our box by being all over the opposition strikers

 

[Peteinblack]

Adam Clayton really gives them The Edge.

Oh no, not you too

 

[DJ NOBO]

Surely Bobby on soon

 

[CHAPPERS]

Really struggling with Calde at left back.

 

[The_Viper]

Commentator at BeIn sports just branded Boro the title winners.

We're not that far into the season lol.

 

[Psychobilly freakout]

We don't look like coming back from this, never mind not the end of the world although I'm sure some will believe it is.

 

[portlander]

Guardian blog says "This not Brighton at their best". Can't disagree.

 

[Marty McFly]

Close!

 

[brakespear]

nice shot by Murphy turned away by Boro GK.

 

[Marty McFly]

BFG limping.

 

[WhingForPresident]

Murphy really should've scored there. Can see us losing this 4-0 unfortunately...

 

[brakespear]

Hunnemeier injured.

 

[sjamesb3466]

Hemed is bang average isn't he

 

[Sam Ovett]

middlesbrough love in is annoying.
