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

[vagabond]

They have a good manager. Rather than an old English dinosaur that GP can outsmart

Lot of truth to that statement.

 

[Weststander]

Tyler and Smith these two could bore for England, half the time they aren’t actually commentating on the actual match, just talking bollox.

That’s why I’ve had the sound down the entire time.

It also makes it a bit less stressful when we created all these breaks for them. A screaming Tyler, willing a goal, would exacerbate my stress.

 

[Albion Dan]

If we improve a little we can win this.

Well at least we’re not winning so the lads can’t think it’s won at half time.

 

[nwgull]

You can tell it’s a dull game: match-day thread has only reached 22 pages at half time, and the first 11 of them were pre-match comments!

My god, I thought I was watching a Jackanory episode.

Just had a look on the Everton fans forum and they are all exactly the same as Liverpool fans. Victims that they are not winning ffs. #alwaysthevictims bunch of James hunts

What a boring 1st half done nothing.

 

[gazingdown]

Maupay really needs to run at the central defenders when 30/40 yds out rather than just sit and wait. Trossard in the same position, he would have run at them and created something.

 

[Dave the OAP]

Christ we are tedious to watch .

Looks so much like a end of season on the beach game

 

[A1X]

Problem with Maupay is he needs competition for his place. Now we’re playing two up front and the bench options can’t hit a barn door (or in Ali J’s case, a barn) there’s no pressure on him to perform.

 

[oldboyroy]

Agree with Trossard having a good half some nice play at times and Lallana just oozes class

 

[Si Gull]

Hard to work out what's wrong with us but it's just not coming together. Generally ok but some sloppy passes and we look like our old selves upfront. Should get at least a point but have to be careful. Hopefully not one of those games where the opposition manager out thinks us at half time.....

 

[timbha]

Someone drag Tyler out of the 70’s

 

[Sheebo]

Dominant team - tick
Against 8th in league pushing for Chanps league etc - tick
4th in away table with games in hand - tick
Lallana bossing it - tick
Bissouma bossing it - tick
Solid at back - tick
Only half time - tick
Neutral comms purring over our style - tick
Comms even reminding people where this club has come from recently - tick
People moaning on NSC - tick

Well Everton aren't up there for no reason. They've been solid, we've struggled to create clear cut chances. Given the ball away far too much in our own half but I feel we improved through the half and ended the half the better team. Good chance to take all 3 here but as others have said, we generally seem to end up losing games like this. We'll see tonight. Dull old game though, that's for sure

 

[One Teddy Maybank]

We are such a nice team to watch

Until the penalty area

Lallana must be so frustrated playing for us - everyone else a couple of yards behind his thinking

 

[Quinney]

Trossard seems to be dropping very deep. 2nd half can’t be much worse.

So Albion, we are the better team but are not looking like scoring

 

[brighton_tom]

They need to calm it down a notch. We do not NEED to win this. 0-0 is fine. But we're throwing men forward in our attacks and making sloppy passes, which will 100% lead to a counter attack goal from Richarlison.
