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

[BHAFC132]

So many of you getting your knickers in a twist as you piss them. Pretty well EVERY team has had big squad rotation with games coming thick and fast but get the nails and hammer ready, I’ve got the cross. You have no idea how much I hope tonight comes back to bite most of you!

Jeez. Maupay scores and for his confidence is out. No forwards? Doesn't look like we’re wanting to win this one.

Maybe change to a more attacking line up at HT or 70 minutes. Hopefully we are still in the game.

Targeting the Wolves game?

We aren't good enough to do that!!!
Every game should be played on its merit. Players in other clubs are playing three games in 6/7 games. Why can't ours? This genius is already writing our death note this season by either trying to be too clever or just not having a clue. I'll let you decide.

Can you imagine being at the Amex, 30k and all, seeing that line up announced? Would raise an eyebrow or two.

I’d hate for this to come as a surprise to you, but none of us want to see our team lose, but having watched our strongest XI flop against some of the league’s weaker opponents some of us are left feeling a little deflated by an awful lineup against a team that just pumped Chelsea. If, and it’s a huge IF, we’ll all be absolutely delighted if we get anything from this game.

Give over. How can you not understand fans being pissed off at that line up?we are in dire need of points and he picks that team against a team we did the double over last season.
Yes, we might be proved wrong. But is it really that hard to understand why fans are flabbergasted at the changes considering our situation?! There's managers resting players, and then there's this...

I so hope you’re right.....

But have to say, it really is a high risk strategy. Having sacrificed both forwards vs West Ham, I did foolishly assume at least one would play.....

Difficult to defend this one, but hoping he’s a tactical genius.....

Pehaps we are having a real go in the cup this year, so we are giving the team to face Newport a run out together first.

Edit - Southstandandy beat me to it.

 

[Rinkmaster]

I'm sorry but after seeing the lineup 3-0 to Arsenal. Don't know what Potter is playing at

 

[durrington gull]

As our strikers have hardly been scoring us that such a great loss. AJ and Mac both have good strikes on them. I'll give it a chance before slagging anyone off.

Agree as our ‘strikers ‘ are goal shy but why not give Swiss 2nd div striker a go Surely better than clueless AJ

 

[portslade seagull]

When I saw the team I thought it was a wind up. Hopefully GP knows what he is doing because nobody else understands this starting 11

 

[NorthLainer]

Just surprised he's not named Andone and Izquerdo in the squad to really freshen things up!

There's bizarre selections then there's Potter selections....

 

[El Turi]

For those saying rotation was needed, Leeds and West Brom are unchanged from their last matches and Arsenal have made one change. If we need to make that many changes, maybe our fitness coaches aren’t up to much.

 

[The Antikythera Mechanism]

Plenty of striking options on the bench

 

[DFL JCL]

That lineup is a message to the board. Go out and get me a striker in January.

I'm sure Solly needs a rest - he's put in great work for many games now.

Yes I think that’s fair, Solly has worked his bits off every week.

Not sure the same can be said of Maupay and Welbeck

My Albion mojo is so low right now. Been looking forward to tonight, now dreading it. Hope Potter knows what he is doing!

I was looking forward to it, still am. But what a selection. No pace. We’ll pack out the midfield but they’ll go straight through us. Hope I’m wrong.

 

[GT49er]

That line up .................. Wow, just wow! And Alzate nowhere in sight.

Goes off in search of a shakes head emoji.

We might even try a shot from outside the box instead of trying to walk it in
