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

[Albion Dan]

I think it is the edge we need.

Look at Southampton, something big changed with them and now they are knocking on Europe's door.

Yes they have a good striker who scored alot of goals!

 

[Skaville]

He didn't. I wouldn't say any of those saves was particularly difficult.

Both from Maupay, the point blank one from Dunk?

 

[bhawoddy]

So therefore , we weren't unlucky at all. We had all the possession, did nothing with it, fell apart as soon as their tails upped. No luck involved tonight - just naivety and the usual shyte in the final third from us.

summed up perfectly.

Lost your football mojo? Losing game after game in Premier League? Need to regain your confidence and need a boost? Then BHA are the answer. Just play once with a glass of water, and you will soon feel better. Guaranteed to turn around your season.

 

[Nixonator]

Buying the best of the Championship does not constitute a Premier League side.

The only way you can get away with it is by limitation jobs and riding your luck, as we did for 2 seasons.

To play this way required a SIGNIFICANT increase in wages offered to attract the calibre of player necessary to facilitate it.

Another harsh lesson learned.

You have to say we were a tad unlucky. However, for two games on the trot the opposition seemed to want it more than us, dug in and got a result.

Yes, but there is clearly a lot else wrong at the moment.
We just don't seem to have any game management and we are not mean enough when we need to be.
Take Grealish out of the game against Villa, take Zaha out of the game against Palace and that would have been 6 points.
It seems we had no game management at all tonight from being far superior for 30 minutes and all that possession.

 

[Justice]

Albion to scared to give big money for a real quality striker. If we scored the majority of the when the teams dominating different story.

We can on our pre season tour to the IOW next season

Keep the faith, margins are close this league is close, anything can happen, apart from beating Liverpool!

 

[drummerboy10]

Stats, basically we switched off for a 5 min spell.

Means bugger all if you don’t score!

 

[Mayonaise]

I think uncle Tony must be scratching his head tonight.

 

[Weststander]

I think it is the edge we need.

They have some outstanding players, better than ours, who got their confidence back. Redmond, Ings, Bertrand, Romeu, Armstrong and Ward-Prowse would improve us no end.

When they closed us down we carried on playing about at the back - there must be a plan B

3 conceded = always a PL loss.

 

[Simster]

He didn't. I wouldn't say any of those saves was particularly difficult.

They were all Hollywood saves. Maupay's was hit a comfortable height for him, and not far off the middle of the goal, Mooy's was decent, but it was from distance so he had plenty of time to set himself.

more like clenching his arse to stop shitting himself

 

[Deleted member 2719]

Means bugger all of you don’t score!

We did score, the first 2 goals killed us being against the run of play.

 

[Blue3]

Terrable defending Webster was at fault for two of the goals he is currently a liability we need Duffy Dunk, Trossard skill full undoubtably but a luxury player cannot tackle cannot head the ball, Maupay was really unlucky on another day could have had a hattrick, Mooy could have had two goals, the Bournemouth Keeper was outstanding, not sure Connely touched the ball in the half hour he was on the pitch while March looked a better option, we are now officially in trouble big time so lets officially announce

"LET THE BEDWETTING COMMENCE"

I'm off to bed

It’s the go-to excuse being used by those who won’t accept we’re in deep shit.

 

[Arthritic Toe]

I can't see us getting the 13 points we need from the remaining games

 

[Paulie Gualtieri]

We are too predictable

We are too slow with the distribution

We don’t have anyone dropping off for the ball

We don’t have the movement

Duffy and Dunk needs to be reinstated

Playing Stephens as right wing back after subs doesn’t work either

Staring to think we go back to 442 and start with Murray and Maupay up top together, the fact is we need to shake this up as what we are doing simply isn’t working


Southampton have gone 9th! FFS

The only positive was March looked ok when he came on
