[Albion] AFC Ajax vs Brighton & Hove Albion *** Official Match Thread ***

[hart's shirt]

Bodies on the line stuff now to keep the 2 goal buffer.

 

[US Seagull]

Going to be a Pyrrhic victory, this one.

 

[GoingUp]

Joao Pedro looks injured now.

 

[Hendrax]

Akpom strikes one straight at Verbruggen

 

[Auckland seagull]

Pedro has put in a shift

 

[Si Gull]

Phew, lucky that was Akpom. Chances coming for Ajax.

Bart hasnt put a foot wrong tonight........ so far

 

[BevBHA]

Fati for Ferguson needs answering

 

[GoingUp]

We need to play Fergie more up top to get the best of him.

Seems RDZ is only using him in a defensive, hold up player, rather than goal threat for a lot of games this season.

I'd love a Wee Billy rocket to top bins about now.

 

[BBassic]

Not a fan of this sitting deep

 

[Joey Jo Jo Jr. Shabadoo]

Maybe not but we have an U23 team to get minutes in

We don’t tho. Our next U21 game is this Sunday. Then it’s the international break. If we wanted to get some mins in with a view to him also taking part against Sheff Utd this weekend we didn’t have any other choice but to give him a run out tonight.

We could have given him some mins against FGR in the EFL trophy earlier in the week but if we did that and he got injured people would still ask why we risked him in such a game.

 

[BevBHA]

Igor is my king

 

[peterward]

Pedro is knackered

 

[giveusfalmerplease]

can someone tell me what position is Ferguson meant to be playing? Pedro and Mitoma are both ahead of him and his his 20 minutes so far hes touched the ball 3 times??

 

[RandyWanger]

Fergie's embarrassing himself there

Something akin to a false 9

 

[GoingUp]

Going to need a lot of Deep Heat in that dressing room at full time.

 

[A1X]

FFS it was 86 minutes played 20 minutes ago

 

[LamieRobertson]

Ferguson clobbered by Berghaus who then worries about added time the tit
