If we don't win today, I may have to stop predicting that we'll win 3-0 every game. The strategy has been a real dud so far.

Gave up predicting 3-1 to us a couple of games ago, I don’t bother predicting anything any more

Just don't want to hear, I pick the team based on performances on the training pitch, whilst once again Enciso is left kicking his heels behind a bunch who almost to a man look short on ideas. The process is overdue an overhaul and a few regulars are due a break.

If FH has omitted a fit Enciso from the squad again I’ll be hoping he gets the tin tack shortly :angry:

The process can go f*** itself

Didn't they have a firm in the 1970s.... Brentford Nylons

Really difficult for a manager to play with the least efficient player in Europe when on a bad streak.

Its a striker/attacking midfielder with 0 goals and 1 assist (against Crawley) since August 2023 and 0 goals for us since May the same year.
In the last two seasons, Enciso has taken 88 shots for club and country, scoring 2 goals (both for Paraguay).

1 goal per 44 shots makes it very difficult for a manager to pick a player.

To make a comparison, Aaron Connolly shot 80 times in total for Brighton, scoring 8 goals. This makes Aaron Connolly 4.4 times more efficient than Julio Enciso.

I thought he looked fresh against Palace and thought he would start against West Ham, but I have full understanding if the manager decides he doesn't want to start a footballer who haven't performed anywhere near an acceptable level in a long time.

A Brentford-supporting friend has just informed me that they have nine players out injured and can't defend. Definitely 3-0 Brentford.

I'd say 2-0 Brentford with that any out.

In reality, I can see this match going one of three ways really.

Draw, lose, or postponed due to fog. The last suggestion came from a bloke in Hove.

Expecting lots of goals tonight. Brentford score for fun and hopefully we can match them tonight. 5-5 draw!

Great…. 0-0 it is then.

Be interested to see game time in that period. How many starts, how many “chuck him on because we’re losing” and how many sub appearances when we were winning or drawing

Paulie Gualtieri · 2024-12-27T18:11:49+0000

Goal within the first 10 minutes market was worth a look, but quite stingy at 11/4

Alex BH · 2024-12-27T18:15:39+0000

Honestly who knows what Brighton team will turn up tonight

Affy · 2024-12-27T18:15:51+0000

Christmas miracle, belated Christmas present? Is a good performance and 3 points too much to ask for?

You can claim the assist for Enciso getting his start tonight.

Good to see Enciso in!

First thought disappointed wieffer not in squad. Bizarrely my favourite player at the moment

Mustafa II · 2024-12-27T18:21:02+0000

Enciso has earned that place in the starting XI today.

He has shown a great attitude in recent months, fighting his way back into the team, no public moaning.
