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

[spence]

Because you're talking utter shit, like you always do.

You have no idea

Give a couple more games and even you will be calling for Potter's head along with many others.

I saw through Potter's tactics weeks ago. I'm not convinced one bit. It might be pleasing on the eye but the defending is women's football stuff.

We're loose.

 

[Albion my Albion]

Ryan can’t save shots across him all teams when they get the chance do it.

Two more inches would have made the difference of not dropping 2 points.

Two inches off Murray's foot.

Gutting. I still think we'll be fine though. Perfomances are miles better than last season. Only a matter of time before we batter someone.

 

[spence]

Soft it wasn’t

Where were the sitting midfielders in the 90 minute ?

 

[spence]

There are a lot of negatives on here. The points may not be there, but the performances are so much better than last season.

We have outplayed West Ham, Southampton and Burnley, but only got 2 points from those three games, when we should have had at least 6.

Time will tell where we end up, but if we keep playing the way we are, we will start to climb the table. We need to have some faith.

None of those sides are top 6. Wake up

I agree. We take off Murray and March and put on May and Bong, which should have made us defensively stronger. The midfield should have closed down better for their goal.

I'm absolutely gutted. We outplayed them all day long. They deserve nothing from that game. One shot on target and the f#cker goes in!

But we need to put these teams to the sword when we are up. One goal is just not enough!

Apart from the first 20 mins, that was dire!

Arguably a draw was a 'fair' result although at the moment it feels like 2 solid points lost.

Wow your so good why aren’t you a Premier League manager??

Sometimes (most games at the moment) you just have to live with it. Gutting but we are moving in the right direction imo. I know you think we are down. I accept that we could easily get relegated but we won’t be going down stinking the division out which I am convinced we would have done with CH still here

 

[FatSuperman]

I think we were far more clinical in general last season. Hopefully we are going to catch up with our ‘expected goals’ before too long! I feel we’ve been quite unlucky as well. Onwards and upwards. Off out tonight so will have to get out of this crap mood

 

[boik]

I agree but occasionally keepers make saves they have no right to, Ryan hasn’t managed one that I can recall so far this season

Keepers generally make great saves when there’s shots raining in on them. Not really happened this season.

 

[GloryDays]

Nothing we, or any other side, could have done against a goal like that.

Perhaps a better keeper would have saved it, but not poor defending otherwise.

Quite, but a good goal doesn’t mean a freak goal, nor an unavoidable one. Hendrick isn’t renowned for his pace but burned away from Propper at the start of the move and finished it with space to swing a large cat. Just think there was an element of laziness to it on our part.

C’est la vie.

The trouble is the football under Hughton had a massive effect on us all. Any new manager wouldn't have been so negative. We have gone the other way now.

 

[heathgate]

Unless we start putting away chances, we are in trouble.

Same as the last 3 seasons really... no killer instinct...

Did anyone on here think we WOULDN’T be in a relegation battle this season?

Look on the bright side, we haven’t dropped into the bottom three yet

It’s tough being an Albion fan in this league

Who??

Can’t keep relying on Muz!! He was very poor today but we’ve not replaced him- gonna struggle I fear

Quite.

Tough league, new manager. It will take time.

Seem to recall people were less than enthused about Hughton joining and even less so when they saw the football that ended up keeping us in the Championship.

Worked out alright.

Murray was not very poor imo, admittedly it's obvious he is past his prime, but he still played an important role today and was useful.
