    [Albion] Brighton & Hove Albion vs West Ham United *** Official Match Thread ***

    Yes Percy appears too lightweight which allows opponents too many opportunities to build attacks when they win the ball off of him.

    [Albion] ** BHA v West Ham ** - Premier League Score Predictor - Now in its 10th SEASON !!

    We're safe, major players out, expecting a 0 2 as West Ham need it more than us. Hoping to see the support strikers get some game time.

    [Football] Giroud

    Nice idea, doubt if he has enough baggage to come to little old Brighton. I suggest he will have attractive financial offers from elsewhere which we will not want to match.

    [Albion] Squad trimming... who stays, who goes?

    This is nicely set out. I do not think a central midfield of Moder and Gross is good enough to be honest. I would hope Lallana starts a fair bit. If Biss does go perhaps there will be a role for Davy Propper.

    [Albion] Seem Tottenham Fans Seem Interested In Mr Potter

    I think it is the media who are more interested than Spurs and it is they who are trying to build a story for or against. Whilst the play in the first half did the club credit to have two players sent off in the second half is a poor advert for club discipline and common sense, particularly as...

    [Albion] Seem Tottenham Fans Seem Interested In Mr Potter

    There is a problem for GP here in that his strikers do not score (enough) and I am not sure there is an easy solution to that. Any Spurs he would be under much more scrutiny and if things do not go (very) well there would be plenty of criticism. Much more than at 'little' Brighton. I am not...

    [Albion] Seem Tottenham Fans Seem Interested In Mr Potter

    I doubt if he will get the Tottenham job but perhaps more interestingly if Rodgers were to get it (and I see he is the bookies favourite) would he get a job at Leicester ? Now that to my mind is entirely possible.

    [Albion] If (or rather when) Bissouma moves - who will replace him in the starting eleven?

    I think an issue may be that we will want around £50 million whilst his suitors will only want to pay £30 million. I am unsure as to whether there is an agreement there. He tackles excellently and distributes well but he is not so strong at creating chances or scoring. This will likely dampen...

    [Albion] Who is going down with Sheffield Utd?

    I think it is just a bit closer than the table looks. Fulham play Newcastle on the last day and assuming Newcastle are safe I think we should expect Fulham to get three points there. Thus we definitely are in danger and need more points. Chances are we will stay up of course but it is not all...

    [Albion] Potter or Hodgson, Albion's squad or Palace's squad

    Managers, squads and playing style are polar opposites. Too much either way if you ask me. One needs a bit of both. How about Hodgson managing and GP coaching. A dream team. I reckon they could get on.

    [Football] Murray to Forest?

    Course he would, easy this goal scoring lark isn't it ?

    [Football] Murray to Forest?

    I think the playing part now is or should be over. I would imagine he is financially secure and so has no need of the modest pickings in Leagues 1 and 2. I believe his 'playtime' should be for the fun of it, in a league much lower. His ship has sailed.

    [Albion] Alireza Jahanbakhsh joins Feyenoord

    Point is last night he was playing against championship (to be) players and I see him as being a decent bench option at that level. Nobody is going to anywhere near match the wage we pay him, so he is with us until near the end of the last year of his contract when he will move on. He is...

    [Albion] Neal Maupay...SIGNED FOR EVERTON.

    I think he was telling him 'Good effort mate, I would have missed it completely !!'

    [Albion] Alan Velasco

    Seemingly very quick feet but perhaps likely to pick up a good few injuries. Yes, very much a market to explore.

    [NSC] Would you take a point at Sheffield utd if both west brom and Fulham lose their next 2.

    Yes for sure. Of course I may well be proved wrong but I think we will be looking to be tight at Sheff United and certainly not lose the point we start with. Our record against the lower sides (excepting Newcastle) is pretty dire. Whilst many thought Fulham were the side to watch it is...

    [Albion] Player ratings vs Chelsea (a)

    Yes quite. I am thinking that he is developing more of a physical edge to his game which has improved him as a player. Good to see.

    [Brighton] Graham Potter

    Staying up is paramount and that means everything. If we go down the wheels will come off. OK we could well come back up straight away and then face what ? real struggle because we will not be strengthening in the Championship. Potter's job is now to get the team motivated and winning...

    [Brighton] Graham Potter

    I believe GP thrives in coaching and improving players. I am not sure he is the one to deal with the egos and work with players who have already got to the top. I am not sure he would enjoy a job with a top 6 club. He is unlikely to leave for one.
