[Albion] Everton vs Brighton & Hove Albion *** Official Match Thread ***

[Mustafa II]

Good win. Lots of positives.

Everton are going to be in trouble again this season.

 

[Bodian]

My fav line from the commentator.... "and now the Brighton team passing the ball around like they are playing on Brighton beach" Brill start to the season.

Has he seen the pebbles?

Here's to hoping West ham do Villa this afternoon to put the cherry on a nice cake. Keep it to 2-0 though, eh?

 

[topoff]

Excellent result...well done lads!

 

[Marxo]

Can't wait for a discussion about Everton on MOTD, never mind seagulls are sh*tting all over the Liver birds.

 

[Normandy seagull]

Our options now are insane! Never known such strength in depth

Nice to start with a win, they’ll have more idea about the system after that as well. Danny looks full of confidence and Minteh was a real handful.

Everton looked very poor at times, a bit too fixated on the long diagonal out to Harrison who invariably wasted the crossing opportunities. Pickford and his little arms aided goals two and three.

Cracking result. Great start to season after a shaky 1st 20 mins

 

[US Seagull]

My fav line from the commentator.... "and now the Brighton team passing the ball around like they are playing on Brighton beach" Brill start to the season.

I heard that too. Clearly doesn't realize that passing the ball around on Brighton beach would actually be a nightmare.

F'ing pebbles.

Has he seen the pebbles?

Maybe he was referring to some of our passing in the first half?!

 

[Birdie Boy]

Has he seen the pebbles?

Tide was out

 

[ozzygull]

Fantastic start, the curse of Dyche irradiated

 

[LamieRobertson]

Not a bad start. . .

Reasonable

 

[GoingUp]

Has he seen the pebbles?

Maybe it was meant as an insult

 

[Peteinblack]

Roberto De Who?

 

[albionalba]

Looking forward to next being there next Sat (easyJet willing)

 

[WhingForPresident]

Bit shaky at times in the first half but you don't get much more comfortable than that for the last 35. Welbz absolutely timeless, Minteh superb, Mitoma looking threatening again, JP bossing it at the back. Great cameo from Adingra as well.

Very encouraging first game. Now let's smash United.

 

[sakooshi]

Meanwhile in France, it's Brest 1-3 Marseille

Adingra had something to prove when he came on. Almost got the goal & assist double.

Lovely stuff

Saw a few of you in town before the game (I've been living in Liverpool), but didn't want to approach in case you thought you were being attacked by a local.

Safe journey home for those that made the journey.
