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

[Pevenseagull]

Well, sort of convinced my date that she is a late night-partygirl and she agreed... hopefully won't change her mind.. again.

Game on! Go Brighton!

Enjoy (hopefully).

Presumably Levi and/or Van hecke is injured. Doesn’t make a lot of sense to have just one inexperienced CB on the bench out of 9 subs.

Maybe, but last week Turns was picked out of preference on the bench as Van Hecke played for the u21s earlier that same day, so not necessarily down to injuries.

 

[Swansman]

All I ask for today is one goal each from Trossard, Gross and Welbeck.

Turns on the bench instead of Van Hecke or Colwill. De Zerbi must see something in him. Or, because Colwill is only a loan and going back to Chelsea, De Zerbi see's little value in giving playing experience to him over someone like Turns who we can develop for the future.

Van Hecke can't be too pleased about not being on the bench again and playing in the U21s when young Turns is bench warming instead of him. Colwill - injured, or an unwaanted loanee?

What’s the beef between Tony and the Bees owner?

 

[Wrong-Direction]

Can someone send me a stream if they get one working cheers

 

[Brok]

Love to see Solly get one tonight.

 

[WATFORD zero]

Classy from Thomas Frank. Now let's go and thrash them

Then I can do my condescending 'Great club, Brentford'

Brentford owner Matthew Benham once worked for Tony Bloom but later set up his own company - the two rivals fell out and now don't speak

Got a bad feeling about this one, so we should do well.

Need to avoid conceding easy corners and free kicks. They will fancy their chances with their height.

Breaking out the Argentinian Malbec.

I get the feeling that when Colwill was signed we initially wanted him permanently as someone we could develop and be a future first teamer, but when Chelsea would only loan him his involvement got downgraded to just being a back up, and not someone we need to give any preferential treatment to in terms of getting them minutes. We'll probably only see Colwill if there's injuries/suspensions.

Looking a bit loose so far

 

[Bodian]

Seem to have lost all our calmness and composure - bit like last week.

 

[Hendrax]

dont like these goal kicks.

 

[Bodian]

This is very classy from our fans - Mwepu must be touched.
