Did we? Disagree massively
Bit of a flurry from Bournemouth, but I still feel we're in control of the game, despite the lack of chances. Just need to step it up a little, second half and we should be fine.

Yeah cos his scoring record has been terrible since the second half of the season began eh
Evan's last two goals haven't exactly been pile-drivers.

Half time didn't come a moment too soon. We're ahead, but I don't think anybody can argue that we've been firmly in control here
Except for the Mitoma assist...
When we're 0-1 up in a game I'm not watching we can play like a team of startled sheep for all I care.

Pretty even half tbh. Separated by a bit of brilliance from Ferguson. Muff probably feel they'd done enough to be level. We just need to step up a gear second half and put it to bed/see it out. Bit worrying about Ali Mac.

Poor. Save the great finish. We aren't playing that well at the moment. Lacking fluidity in midfield, defence looking spread, rushed and uncertain. Still we are just about getting the results.
The likes of Kane and Rashford will be rubbing their hands though.

I'm impressed with Bournemouth - was at the Amex too. No chance they'll go down if they keep this form up - I like how they play too
Wouldn't say we're poor at all imo. Some sloppy spells but also lots of lovely very fast paced football. Bournemouth are just a good team giving us a good game. Done very well to be ahead at HT
Good, Brighton 1 - 0 Bournemouth so far.It's 3:30 am here in Far East Asia (Japan). I woke up a moment ago. Brighton must win this game, otherwise, it will ruin my long day today
If it were the opposite, I would fall asleep during the 15 min half time, but I'll watch till the end to see Brighton win 3 points

Slick passing, a great press, they were chasing shadows.
But once we scored they upped their game and we started passing to them on repeat.
Ref isn't giving much. Think the line between 'letting the game flow' and 'assault' may have been crossed a couple of times 
Bit nervy at the back so far but will happily take going in a goal up.

Delighted with that HT score considering we’ve not been at our best, passing not really on point so far.
I’ve never said this before but Veltman looks a bit of a concern tonight and a couple of dodgy moments from Dunk again.
Steele, Estupinan, Caicedo excellent and what more can you say about the boy wonder?! Stunning finish.

Haven't looked very fluid, so many misplaced passes. RDZ won't be happy with that half.

Struggled after our goal and Bournemouth will be disappointed to go in one down, another half like that and we'll be fortunate to win.
