Scoffers

A classic, he couldn't believe he missed could he
I agree, yeah he should have scored and if he was left footed he probably would have done. I think the problem was that he needed to get a bit of curl to score from there and being right footed couldnt quite manage it. As already said, Revells miss for Orient was 10 times worse.
So he should have controlled the ball, turned, and shot with his left foot should he?!
Do me a favour! Acute angle?! He was practically level with the near post! It was a terrible, terrible miss - fortunately for him he was an absolute monster at the back again, and remains on course for my Player of the Season vote.
Like I said - bad miss but not the worst I have seen. El Abd effort tee'd up in this link.

Not as much as I laughed at Barnes airshot
Much as I have been championing the fact that Adam has been an EXCELLENT defender for The Albion - I would also have to admit that he'd be the worst striker ever for us (if he was asked to fill that position).
An experienced striker may well have done that if he had had the time. A centre back though wouldnt have I doubt. It wasn't as if he had loads of time to shuffle the ball onto his other foot either.
Like I said earlier I honestly don't think it was that bad a miss. I've seen many worse this season from Brighton and saw at least 2 worse than that yesterday (Jenas & Revell)
