[Albion] Brighton & Hove Albion vs Crystal Palace *** Official Match Thread ***
- Thread starter Dick Head
- Start date
What return is he expecting as both a Business Owner and a fan? As a Business Owner IF he sells 2 or 3 players from this squad for big profits, that will help in paying back some of his massive investment back. Also as a Business Owner he's asked the Club to be a consistent Top 10 EPL club - we've just lost one game of football and are currently on target to achieve this?
As a Fan he is probably wanting Top 6 or CL - but thankfully he's grounded enough to be able to differentiate between the two. He's got his own money invested - us fans haven't......

I’ve invested tens of thousands in the Albion, thank you very much!
Palace also had 5 on target and better chances over the game. In fact can only really remember Enciso and Dunk coming close and we were already two down at that point. Stats can’t mask what you can see with your own eyes and that was that Palace absolutely schooled us today and Fabs tactics and inability to get the team up for it lost us the game.

Well there you have it.
Everyone knows we don't like it up us. Standard antiffotball from them: swarm the football, stifle life out of the game, force us into errors and counter attack at pace. A helmet ref didn't help. How Mateta got away without being carded I will never know.

Eze escaping the yellow, because the ref played advantage pissed me off too

We shouldn’t be reliant on welbeck tbh

A bit gutless today.
Lacroix on Pedro first half should have been a card

No, but his absence highlights how good his linkup play in transition is. We're lacking someone to play that role when he isn't there, and are less threatening as a result.
I told you previously that if you repeated this particular party trick I’d ban you. You have. So I have.A great win ,which I didnt expect tbh.
once we wethered the first 20 minute onslaught in the second half I knew we’d get a third on the breakaway.
Very happy tonight and hopefully our season is turning

Wishing you all the best, Harry. Always enjoy your musings.
For all that period of battering them for 15 minutes after half time, we only created two decent chances in that time (Dunk header and Enciso shot). That’s a terrible return for a period that long of basically attack vs defence. Give other teams that and they’ll carve out 7/8 good chances.
Had we scored then, we might have salvaged something. As soon as we didn’t it was all over.

I can see a slide into mid table mediocrity coming.
I would agree in most of what you say, but Igor isn't that good. Sorry if I missed this but who voted him as player of the month?

We are already mid table. Think 9th qualifies for that?
