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

Bugger - 2-0 down already!

Just getting ahead of the crowd.

Not nearly dramatic enough

 

[Flounce]

Gruda playing yet again? ?

I like him, his close control is excellent. He’s getting game time, that’s a good thing imo.

 

[Machiavelli]

I want a good performance today; the result doesn't matter. UTA!

[Zeberdi]

Really surprised Mitoma isn’t starting given they have no right back. Team’s fine but that’s odd.

We may lose Mitoma in a summer transfer - Adingra needs to up his game which he won’t do without regular match time - Same as Igor - Dunk next season will need a lot more rotation- I dont have a problem with Igor playing LCB.

I’m not going to pile in on Pedro. We don’t know what happens in training and in the dressing room - Pedro provides a mature presence at the front with Welbeck injured. He may not have surpassed Welbeck in goals this season and has been carrying injuries but he is still a top player for us.

Come on lads! - we can beat any team in the League at home and away if we focus for 90 mins and play our best!

Dunk; slight calf muscle injury

That’s the injury of choice when someone is being sold. January bid from Palace?

 

[Blues Guitarist]

I see that Tuchel is at the game. Looking at all the Brighton players?

 

[Steviewonder]

Can't believe Mitoma and Enciso not in starting lineup. Guess they can come on and save the day but seems bonkers to me

 

[Justice]

It’s called rebuilding

Patience is an annoying virtue

That’s an excuse for the FH fans, we kept all of our best players in the summer bar WBG the midfield hasn’t been great since his departure.
The squad has been bolstered with signings our record signing after a promising start now can’t get a game, he’s now dropping Mitoma, doesn’t rate our young striker the rest of the PL managers are desperate to sign and plays Ayari who is nowhere near WBG’s level.
Who knows what will happen in the next 90 minutes and I hope we win but I’m not very hopeful.

 

[Bry Nylon]

Dunk not playing is a blow.

For Arsenal?

 

[Zeberdi]

Tross already practicing his diving to a chorus of boos

 

[Si Gull]

Velts looks on top dark arts form, already

 

[Zeberdi]

Beautiful foot skill from Baleba

Beautiful foot skill from Baleba

Lovely wasn't it?! Can't wait to see it on the highlights later...

 

[Hendrax]

Adingra was so pedestrian then, when pedro passed him the ball. bloody run with it man.

 

[Littlemo]

I do love the boos aimed at Trossard but you know that it’s asking for trouble as well

 

[Si Gull]

Great save Bart even if offside

Oops. Sorry. Posted in error.

Bart needs to stop with the studs on the ball routine. Nobody is falling for it.

 

[Zeberdi]

O’Riley looks out of his depth. He’s going to need to do better than this - looks like he’s playing a metre behind everyone else.

 

[Littlemo]

Bart needs to stop with the studs on the ball routine. Nobody is falling for it.

He’s remembering last season and sending Bat signals to RDZ.
