Brentford vs Brighton & Hove Albion *** Official Match Thread ***

Why sign Akpom and then not give him a decent run-out? Looked lively enough when he came on v Huddersfield. This timidity in team selection will be the undoing of us. Sake!

To keep it tight until half time I guess - oops

 

[Jim in the West]

That's crossed my mind too

He's doing a great job at Villa...

Massive, ridiculous over reaction. Every side has a dip, we've still lost less than Newcastle and we're at home to Burton and Ipswich next so things could look very different again in 10 days time.

Calm the F down!

This.

If, on the other hand, we come out of those two games with anything less than 6 points I'll begin to be properly worried.

Too much White Flag waving on NSC these days.

Burton is massive game now. Confidence has completely gone away from home so need to get some home form going. TBH, who saw the team list and thought three points? I am not one for draws but would have taken one today with this team. No chance now.

Villa fans tend to blame him on their recent shite form

That said, take Norwood off for either Towell or Kayal

Same guy who masterminded a 3-0 loss to Brentford this week? Nope, just poor selections by Hughton twice.

 

[wellquickwoody]

We'll be in 3rd place this time next week

Please take your negativity elsewhere, you've lost the rail battle, please take your Jonah status somewhere else......

 

[neilbard]

No worries we are playing them chaps that make the wagon wheel next week nailed on 3 points

Should've gone with Akpom and Hemed up front.

Go all out to get Robbie Keane in if we can.... Experienced head and goal scorer. Will add some much needed grit. Shit or bust time. Are we about to do a Derby of 2 seasons ago?

4-2-3-1 vs 4-4-1-1 sacrifices the midfield. Up to the wingers then.
I don't we think keep the ball as well as we used to. Eagerness to get forward.

 

[fleet]

2-0 isn't good, but at least we are creating chances - that's better than Thursday. Just need to convert one of them

 

[boik]

Yeah but will they even feature at any time or are they just there for show ?
I agree it seems it was just assumed that we would progress as in the first half of the season without strengthening in the window whilst teams like Brentford and Barnsley sell their top players and don't even miss a beat !

But don't forget that the Chelsea kid should never play again according to some of the idiots on here. You just can't please some people.

Only reflects what we see on the pitch 'these days'.

 

[heathgate]

Wondering if CH lost the video of the Hds'field massacre and wanted a live action replay of how to field the shitest mid-field in the div?

Maybe an extended learning curve.

Norwood.... as poor as always

How bizarre that sitting in SECOND spot some people have us as season over - what a resilient bunch !

If we continue playing like this all feb, Which seems more and more likely.
You can kiss that nonsense goodbye and look forward to trying to get into play offs again!.

In the last 1 1/2 games.
