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

[oldboyroy]

Nowhere near our best. Need to be at Villa Saturday to get anything

 

[Stephen Seagull]

They managed to waste 3 of the 7 added minutes. Ref was shite (for both teams) but we didn't deserve it when we don't take our chances. Should've been 2-0 up before the blatant red card

Listening to Radio Sussex for the first time in ages as couldn’t get a stream. For about 90% of the time you have absolutely no idea what is happening on the pitch. Awful commentary.

Harsh - Jonny and Warren are legends

 

[maltaseagull]

Not sure about tonight's game.
Poor performance and not all back up players.
Is it because we don't really need this cup challenge?
If so, have we got so big we are selective about what we compete for?
Shame as I would think this is a cup we could possibly win.
Also fooking hate Chelsea more than Palace.

 

[Mackenzie]

Hopefully no injuries, as for the result...bigger fish to fry!

 

[Mustafa II]

Decent enough performance. We created the better chances, but didn't finish them.

Probably didn't deserve to lose, or deserve to win either.

Enjoyed a further demonstration that Sanchez, Cucurella and Caicedo are very, very average at best.

Think it is great that we are out of this competition. Too many fixtures, and bigger fish to fry, this season.

 

[bluenitsuj]

Very poor second half from us.

 

[jimhigham]

I know we're not meant to like anything about Chelsea - but I do like the shirt fronts without adverts.

Yeah but they even managed to make that shit with the bling club badge. Not an ounce of class, that lot.

 

[Normandy seagull]

Lallana was proper shite when he came on. Legs have gone

 

[banjo]

Pains me to say it but Cucurella MOTM. Was very fired up

At least they’ll be able to ship him off in Jan after that

 

[RandyWanger]

Not helped by poor finishing at all, with their dodgy keeper we should have had that won in the first half. We got to learn to beat poor teams.

 

[Coldeanseagull]

As much as I'd like to blame the inept reffing of that game for our loss, it was the poor finishing that cost us there, oh well, moving on.

 

[HantsSeagull]

we were pretty shite - lets face it. very few chances - all of which we ballsed up.

 

[zefarelly]

YAY! Thats the Michael Rodent trophy out of the way.

good 'live' training session for 11 players.

 

[Biscuit]

Should have gone in at half time 2-0 up and against ten men. We were wasteful. Poor second half. Both teams looked crap tbf. If we had to lose I'm glad it happened within 90 minutes - we've got too many fixtures and we can't rotate as much as we would have hoped imo.

 

[miffy6]

Can someone teach Van Hecke to close his legs, cost us against AEK aswell.

 

[saafend_seagull]

Awful performance. Created one chance with march diving header.

No chance of winning the cup anyway. Will be liverpools.

 

[portslade seagull]

Maybe the squad isn't as strong as it needs to be.

 

[swindonseagull]

Giant killers Chelsea beat a top 3 team in a mickey mouse cup......

 

[Sheebo]

Oh well. If that’s what £1b spending in a year gets you

Not great second half but patched up side showed. Even game - their expensive players anonymous in the main. Thanks for the 6 points to Europe
