Don’t think so - miles behind the ball?

Good first half from us considering the weather.
Brighton controlling possession and managing the game far better than BOU.
Despite BOU creating a few chances and pressing high, they’ve looked nothing like controlling the game to me despite some of the comments above. Van Hecke playing that BOU attempt on goal offside was spot on defending - he read the play well.
We have good options on the bench - the way it’s going - perhaps bring off our yellow cards which unfortunately as far as Rutter is concerned includes our best player on the pitch today.
At least Semenyo is also on a yellow.

I believe it has to do with the TV camera angles and distances and how close the stands are to the pitch.

Tough half against a really good side in difficult conditions. Two very good footballing sides - and I’m talking about fecking Brighton and Bournemouth. Incredible really.
Absolutely gorgeous football for the goal, but we’ve offered nothing else at all since and been largely under the cosh. Love Georginio’s work rate, skill and enthusiasm but he has tried a killer pass unsuccessfully four times that half, when we’d have been better holding the ball and slowing the pace down.
Feisty, mildly tetchy game, and wouldn’t be at all surprised to see a red card in this second half. I just hope it’s for them.
Couldn’t have any complaints if we were level at the break as they’ve been on a par with us, just one moment of class for the goal and some good keeping from Bart and a tight offside call is the difference so far.
Said at the start I’d take a draw and the way the game has gone, it would still be a good result we could be pleased with, but obviously I’m hoping for the win!
They look like scoring though so I think we’ll need another if we’re going to take the three points.

Listening to the bbc reporter on final score he reckons Bournemouth have bossed the game
Looked like Bournemouth were by far the better team after the goal and had several good chances. we need to be much better 2nd half.

I'm sorry, but they really have. Poor finishing is the reason we're winning right now.Listening to the bbc reporter on final score he reckons Bournemouth have bossed the game
Leicester really is poor these days.
if we could make it 6 more, we go ahead of chelsea.

Riding our luck here and need to quickly improve our decision making in these ciricstances. Needed a period of consolidation rather than misplaced through balls.
We’ve got away with it into half time.
Need to change up the approach second half or we will concede

No need to say sorry to me …couldn’t quite understand that reading of the game judging by reports
We only need four. A 5-0 win will take us above them on goals scored.
