We have to change our mentality... I believe we still “hope” to win when we have enough to have more confidence than that.

Thought Ayari was a waste of Space and if we wanted to take off a player, going down to 10 couldn't be worse than bringing on Wieffer.

Said to be a really great bloke - one of the genuinely decent men in football. I think he takes his sport seriously and gives loads back.

The biggest problem for Lamptey is he seems to need 2-3 touches to control the ball at the moment. In the Premier League, that’s quite a big flaw.
BUT, he put in the two most dangerous crosses of the game, one of which we scored from, and he generally defended very well.

We should have scored more in the 1st half and you know that it gives teams more encouragement if it's only one goal during the game. We didn't play well 2nd half and saints grew in confidence. Still not lost at home but it was close. Second in the league . . . What's wrong with that.
I think there are 4 refs in the VAR Room, can they not f'ing multitask.

I thought Ayari was our best midfield player after the first 7-8 minutes. Considering he was playing a new role at the base of our midfield, he generally did it well.
Just not as well as Baleba would have.

To be fair to Southampton- they are still finding their feet in the Premier League- they gave Liverpool a real scare last weekend- they are improving every week.
Had Mitoma scored early on, it’s a different game, but he didn’t.
Second half they were the better team, we got lucky with the VAR decision but we are now second in the Premier League, I reckon we will SMASH Fulham midweek, Pedro Hat trick (one pen)
Missed opportunity again but we are learning in each game.
Strap in, hold tight and enjoy the Brighton & Hove Albion rollercoaster- it’s going to be one hell of an exciting season

Ayari ran the midfield in the first half. No one played well second half.
Agree. I thought Pervis had a shocker tonight. Poor defensively and wasted so many opportunities for us. Some really poor decision making.

Well I’m sure they do, but the main VAR ref is the decision maker, so by the time the assistants have watched multiple times and seen a potential infraction, that goes up the chain and he has to watch multiple times too - for both incidents.
I agree, it should be quicker but the fact they took so long gave us the decision.
A bit like his play I think. Does the simple stuff really really well - doesn't over-elaborate and fanny around. Really impressed with him.

Attitude and application was shameful second half.

Mitoma did alright - not great - but put in the yards. Brilliant run and touch to assist Adingra at the end.
Otherwise second half we were well off it to a man.

Fulham away with our poor record there and Leicester away with new manager bounce. What could go wrong?To be fair to Southampton- they are still finding their feet in the Premier League- they gave Liverpool a real scare last weekend- they are improving every week.

That second half performance was absolutely abysmal, the insistence on knocking the ball wide for Pervis to chip onto the defender’s head was both baffling and infuriating in equal measure.

Actually on Sky (and it may have been the same as your stream) they quoted the words from var which didn’t mention the flick at all- it was about interfering with Verbruggen. The commentary team then took it upon themselves to decide it was about the flick.
