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

[Si Gull]

Great block by JPvH

We look clueless going forward and hopeless in defence. Not a great combination.

Rubbish decision by ref to give the ball back to Brentford after it hit him. They still had possession and messed it up so the ref gave them two bites of the cherry

 

[Littlemo]

I feel like Brentford being so defensive and not being big on having possession does flatter us a bit and make us look good.

 

[London Irish]

What I don’t understand is why the game quickens up so much when the ball gets near Wissa. Then back to half pace when we have it

 

[Algernon]

I don't understand the point of tippy tapping it 7 or 8 times to then just punt it optimistically up the pitch and lose it.

 

[Si Gull]

Pedro...another chance goes begging.

 

[Bodian]

The space Pervis is leaving them - I can see Solly coming on and playing left-back.

 

[Reddleman]

Awful crossing. Always floaty, whip it in for goodness sake

 

[BevBHA]

Get Enciso off

 

[deletebeepbeepbeep]

Time for some changes.

What is Enciso doing there FFS?

Yep, time for someone else I think, not his day...

 

[Bodian]

Mitoma needs to drive into the box more - that's one reason why we're not winning penalties anymore.

 

[London Irish]

Ayari always adds momentum, get him on. Minteh too

 

[Swegulls]

Subs please!

 

[A1X]

Six times as many touches in their box as they’ve had in ours

f*** all to show for it

 

[American Seagle]

But why didn't they fall to Pedro? Is it because other players are desperate to score and make the wrong decision?

It looks to me like the younger players all start looking for the hard pass or shot when things get congested and we are looking for a goal.
I think more experience and calmer heads as they develop will help a lot.

 

[Si Gull]

What is Enciso doing there FFS?

Trying too hard and he's lost his natural game.

 

[Flounce]

Frustrating does not begin to cover this game
