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













Great move but Montoya has to work the keeper
 












We’ve gone 4 4 1 1 with Biss behind Maupay

As much as I like Tammy Abrahams, I still think he's got a touch of the Haha about him, in easily blown over by a breeze.

Hoddle’s analysis been very good. Never sure why everyone hates him. Called it early that our shape was wrong with a diamond giving their fullbacks too much space, then again when we went 4-4-2 that it would give Jorginho too much space, and now we’re 4-5-1 we’re doing much better. He knows the game well.

Potter showing his real ability to change things mid game. Very poor first 25 minutes and then very good last 20 after he’d changed the shape which clearly wasn’t working against an excellent side.

We’re well placed for the second half, our shape is much better now, we’re looking more solid and starting to find space. We can definitely get something out of this.

Grew a bit into it after an atrocious first half hour, but still not got the game by the scruff of the neck.

I like him, but i'm struggling to see where to play Alzate - he doesn't have the physicality for a CM role, not as creative as the likes of Mooy (tho few are), doesn't seem to like shooting first-time (and when he does it seems to lack pace) but also not the pace to be a winger. It's a tough one as he's clearly a good player.

Here's hoping he proves me wrong now :lolol:

we improved after 35 minutes . . . Chelsea are just quicker, stronger and better. we will need to be at out best to get anything. Webster makes me nervous. I think Connollys strength and pace would be advantageous at some point, and maybe some Gross deliveries when Mooy gets tired. Trosserd is doing ok, but not strong enough . . . would like to see what AJ can do though
