[Albion] Brighton & Hove Albion vs Frank Lampard's Chelsea *** Official Match Thread ***

[Icy Gull]

No disgrace there, kept going and a little unlucky. Played well

 

[BN41Albion]

We’ve been absolutely fantastic.

But lost 1-3.

C'est la vie.

Bloody Dunk at 1-2

 

[jimhigham]

Well I’m feeling completely bloody fed up about tonight. There’s been stuff going on that’s kept me from watching much of the match. We looked pretty decent for the little I saw up to half time and yet all I get is alerts saying we’re losing more.

I’ll watch the extended highlights later but should I be angry/bothered/worried?

 

[Palacefinder General]

Maupey is really pissing me off no effort no first touch been total and utter dog shit tonight like I said earlier god help us if we have him as our main striker this year

I’ve got a strong suspicion you could be Palace

 

[Mancgull]

The better team for majority of game and lose to A hospital pass, dive. And a dodgy OG.

Kinda what you used to, a lot of invention but nothing to show for it.

Alazate and March not great, Maupay awful tonight.

Not sure Maupay was 100% after the ankle injury he suffered.

Two things really killed us with this game. The James blast 100 seconds after our equaliser and then Dunk’s miss.

 

[Tyrone Biggums]

Simply toothless up front for all the huffing and puffing we did around the pitch.

 

[Weststander]

You make your own luck fed up with hearing we were/are unlucky it’s bollocks at this level. Chelsea deserve the win as they have scored 3 to our 1

You’re correct.

Plucky, unlucky Albion.

If only Ryan and Alzate hadn’t screwed up, if only that flyer hadn’t been struck, if only we’d tucked chances away, if only Webster hadn’t deflected that.

You make your own luck, in defence and attack, concentration is required for 90 minutes in the unforgiving PL.

 

[Gully Forever]

Still can't believe Maupay missed that cross with his head and came of his shoulder, What a muppet

 

[dwayne]

If we miss our best opportunities, need 10 shots to get a goal, gift opposition the ball on the edge of the area and concede penalties, and clumsy own goals gifting oppositions wins all season we'll finish mid-table?

Yer that's the way I see it. EXACTLY the same as last season .... Tippy tappy pretty football. Chelsea knew they just had to sit back and bide their time, have a few shots on target and easy win. Also if you press us all game you will force one or two goal scoring chances.

Precisely the same Vs big boys at the end of last season.

It ain't working potter.

Confirmed what we already knew. We need a new LWB and ST.

 

[WhingForPresident]

Eurgh, such a kick in the balls when we play well and end up on the receiving end of a 3-1. I almost wish we'd played worse so I could have something to be angry about, but it's just sadness.

Plenty of positives, but sign a ****ing striker, for ****s ****ing ****s sake!

 

[Richy_Seagull]

Worried about that White injury. Looked that in could be ligament.

 

[Luke93]

March really impressed me.

 

[Billy the Fish]

It doesn't matter how good you look in open play - if you make mistakes in both boxes you won't win games.

There's no points for looking pretty, we need to learn how to pick up points.

 

[RandyWanger]

Hope we're not done in the transfer window

Injuries and misfortune ruined our day, however, I thought we kept a good shape.

More possession, more corners and more shots than Chelski, nothing to panic about.

 

[jcdenton08]

Good performance. Desperately need a 6ft+ striker with some strength. Hinged on Dunk's miss (of the season TBC) but we gave them a good game and were shattered by the end.

Negatives? Injuries to Lallana and White

 

[Sarisbury Seagull]

Good performance and very unlucky against a team of superstars. We’re not going to be playing against Werner and Kante every week thank goodness.

Lots of positives to build on, can’t wait for the next game.

 

[StonehamPark]

I think you glass maybe empty!
I thought we’ve played better than we did last season. I’m in the quietly confident we’ll do better than last season.

That's the question I have right now, did we play better than last season and, is our Squad better now than it was last season?
I'm unsure, on both parts.

Hes a good player, did well last season and admittedly was poor tonight. Can't judge him on one game, but a prolonged spell of poor form or injury will be trouble.

Jurgen how much for Rhian? Get it done.
