AFC Bournemouth vs Brighton & Hove Albion *** Official Match Thread ***

Very disappointed with our showing tonight. Seemed scared of them first half and gave too much possession 2nd half.

I think we've been taught a bit of a lesson tonight. 1-0 up and we didn't press on enough for a 2nd like we did against West Brom. You HAVE to kick teams when they are down in this league, because if you don't, they will have the quality to get back into it sooner or later.

We were worth a point but if we had been more positive we would have won

95 minutes - not many empty seats.....!

Not many seats to be honest!

 

[Tooting Gull]

Frustrating.

I really dislike Boremuff. A real bogey side for us, pretty much like Brentford used to be. yes i'm being petty and bitter, but if we don't stuff this makeshift, no better than a league one side 4-0 at the Amex, I'll make love to my wife twice in the same month...that's how much they really pee me off

We never get a result at Dean Court. It's one of those grounds.

Please don't let Rosenior near a football pitch again.

Missed Bruno badly

Pace up front, or a lack of it, was a topic much debated for four and half months on NSC by us mere laymen. The fear was that if we lacked that, opponents could do exactly that, comfort in the knowledge that the Albion can't hurt them. At the same time giving great encouragement to their attacking threats.

I like Hemed, he runs his socks off. but at this level starting him is equivalent to only having 10 men.

Nice talking to you

Very poor tonight and a big step down from Bruno, if Bruno is missing next week give the Greyhound a chance

 

[Gabbafella]

About time we played a little less defensive and put one of our wingers up front to make up for the lack of decent strikers.
Bournemouth is the type of side we should realistically be taking points off. We didn't play badly but we're so toothless in attack that i can't see where our goals will come from.

Much too harsh. Poor mistake, but he has done pretty well for us and will be a useful squad player going forward.

 

[Hamilton]

2pts dropped. Ibe changed the game. Simple as that really.

He's a bit useless when our defensive line contains 9 players on the edge of the penalty box.

2-1 down 2 mins to go and we are passing ball BACKWARDS FFS

 

[gripper stebson]

Did Bournemouth sit back after they took the lead.

No they did not.

Did they concede. No

You cannot, CANNOT, score early and then sit on it. No matter the opposition. We do it so often and it was so f**king obvious what was going to happen.

It just feels so obligatory though. Score early on second half, drop deep and hope for the best.

I know, but it's the CH way. Statiscally, looking a his record, it works more often than not - so, playing the numbers, it works. It's just miserable to watch the last part of the game (the rest of the game is fine, and I want him to stay; he's a fabulous manager, but if we want him (which I do) we have to accept this as part of the package).
