[Albion] An appreciation (of Adam Webster)

[WhingForPresident]

Really impressed with how he as done post-lockdown.

With White, Dunk and Webster, I wonder how many teams in the world will have a better set of ball-playing centre backs- not many by my reckoning.

 

[Finchley Seagull]

Agree outstanding yesterday. However no doubt his mistakes have cost us a lot of goals this season.

I'd say there is a massive doubt. He's cost us two or three but definitely not lots of goals. As always with our fans, he made a couple of mistakes and they thought he should be attacked, which does not help. No surprise he has improved since these fans have been unable to go to games.

We also signed Clarke as a ball playing centre back. In addition, Băluță is a very tall DM who has played a good number of games at centre back. I’d liken him to a quarterback from this particular show reel.

Nonsense. Are you watching the same player ?He is a weak link. I don't rate him as a Premier league player.

 

[Icy Gull]

We had plenty of “get rid” shit about Dunk as he learnt and now he’s the Messiah. Webster will become an Albion legend over the next few seasons unless he gets poached by a top 3 club, which IS a possibilty

Too many fans expect the finished article within 5 mins on the pitch

 

[Not Andy Naylor]

Never ok in my mind ...Dunk is Brighton through and through

But was a Chelsea fan as a boy.

What a shock. You don't rate one of our players. Hardly surprising as you are the most negative poster on here. Can't really remember you saying a positive thing to say about any of our players, managers etc

Drivel. You choose to ignore any positive posts of mine.

 

[Keith Patel]

Two Sussex born lads heroically throwing themselves at everything. What's not to love?

 

[Finchley Seagull]

If you say so. I genuinely don't remember you being positive. You are always calling for the manager to be sacked or players to be dropped (and rarely seem to post if we're doing well)

 

[AlbionBro]

Because too many of the fans think the club owes them, and that unless a defender can Hoof It, he's just a rubbish player?

Is that what they think?
Perhaps you could do one of those wonderful polls on, why do you berate players?

Sorry, the technology is beyond me.

 

[jackanada]

On another day we could have lost that game 4-0 even with Webster and Dunk playing how they did. Webster did look good, bit I think we'd probably be overlooking that if we had.

 

[zefarelly]

Hmmmmm, last ditch defending is the one thing England have been crying out for since Butcher and Adams.

Not too sure why you would poo-pooh it when the national team find it impossible to beat superior opposition, in games that require last ditch defending.

Perhaps I didn't articulate my thoghts very well, it's an extremely good and useful skill to have, but wouldn't be at the top of my priority list when looking for a defender . . . . Hence why Webster has ousted Duffy from the startingline up . . . He can play football as well. In the same way having a winger who can cross, or a striker who can shoot AND head the ball. . .

 

[Garry Nelson's Left Foot]

Jnr is having delusional episodes around England's defense.

He feels Lamptey, Webster, Dunk and White will be the way forward, for the national team and he's not even a Sussex Separatist.


But he is a knobhead.

They do say the apple doesn't fall far from the tree.



Sorry Stat, you set that one up yourself!

Nah he refuses to join me in the Sussex Liberation Front, the knobhead.

How do I poll 25,000 STHs?

 

[The Albion Roar]

I would add that Webster was so good that I have actually started to be ok about the idea of Dunk moving on ( if the right bid were to come in for him).

Silly idea.

Fecking hell. Some of the bollox people say on here regarding football . 2nd one today i've pulled up

I was the first person to object to it. I was also the first person to see through this shocking management. Been saying it for months.

He is taking us down

I'm sorry to say we are down. Out of form, back to back terrible results, strikers who are not good enough at this level and no real quality.

I'm not renewing next year because of var. I done with football season tickets. Will feel for the fans under Potter again because he isn't the man to take us back up.

Championship with Potter ? No thanks Tim. This season has killed football for me.

Nearly used up my quota for ticket exchange. It's been an awful season. We went backwards under Hugton after Xmas. We are doing the same again. 1 win in 11 with some tough fixtures at home coming up. Throw in VAR, football is dead for me.

Was really hoping that my prediction of relegation was to be blown out of the water by Bloom during this transfer window. It has done the complete opposite infact. It has strengthened our relegation cause no end.

To be fair my main gripe is with Potter anyway. I don't rate him and he is taking us down regardless.

All defending has been shit. It's Potters BIGGEST DOWNFALL. It's what will ultimately send us down

Wonderkid Lamptey ? Based on what ? Do tell me as he has played only one Premier league match. Basically another untried kid with potential. Heard that before ?

Bssouma reminds me of Rowan Ince, Great first season then disappears into obscurity. Both players were exciting and looked decent signings.

It's Blooms massive fook up to appoint this clown and then give him a massive extension a few months later. What did he base this on because he clearly wasn't seeing what i was seeing.
This will go down as one of Blooms worse business decisions in his life.
All those millions we lose when we drop down a division and no chance of sacking Potter and his staff now.

That's because gimps like you cannot see how shit Potter is.

Double relegation looks on the cards

Nothing has changed. We have a poor manager who has been found out. He will take us down.

In response to the question 'are we going down?':

Yes we are. Nailed on

Webster had a very good game and had been better recently. Need him to look a £20mil player most game to justify the £20mil price though...
