[Albion] Brighton & Hove Albion vs Ipswich Town *** Official Match Thread ***

[jimhigham]

Briiiighton!!! It’s just like watching Brighton.

 

[Right Brain Ronnie]

Focusing on the positives - Baleba and Ayari were superb in parts and will only get better.

Aside from a poor touch to give the ball away.
Ferdi K. looks like he will offer a lot of energy and purpose.

JPVH was class again and is capable of an incisive pass forward to break lines rather than taking the obvious option.

We will do well to keep JPVH.

So 4 games in, unbeaten, 6 goals scored, 2 conceded, 2 clean sheets, played Arsenal & Man Utd and currently 3rd in the table, and we’re “shit”, “moronic”, “terrible”, “really, really bad”, oh and “Dunk can f**k off”

Nice!

Feel a bit embarrassed to know that some away fans read things like that on this board. Makes us look like twat fans.

We're not Man City. The expectations of some of our fans is just insane.

We played pretty well today - just couldn't hit the net. Credit to the opposition for making it so difficult for us.

The only POOR performance today was Mitoma IMO, but these things happen... the rest of the team though played okay, to good, to outstanding (Baleba).

 

[Han Solo]

I don't know, but his body language seemed to very much indicate it.That said Encisco, didn't appear to strike the ball at all well since he came on..... and it was quite close to get the ball up and down anyway. I was most disappointed with Mitoma his form seems up and down.

Lewis Dunk taking four or five attacking free kicks per season is a very small issue considering how rare free kick goals are no matter who gets the job.

It wouldn't surprise me if he wanted to compensate for how lazy and arrogant he looked for most of the game.

Nice!

After beating Everton and Man U and a draw against Arsenal. We play Ipswich at home and fail to score from 70% + possession.

So yes I`d call that a pretty shit performance.

It was 31 must be a misprint/fat finger - PBOBE OUT

 

[Seagull58]

32 goal attempts with 21 on target and zero goals is an appalling stat. Fab should bring them in for training tomorrow and teach them how to shoot.

 

[dwayne]

Hinshelwood and mitoma dreadful

Pleasantly surprised with ayari looked class and intelligent. Baleba and absolute beast.

Disagree with a lot on here. Ipswich were very good against Fulham last week and were great for a newly promoted team today at the amex. Great tactics, solid and had a slight threat. Also a pretty good footballing side.

6 on target for us. Crap.

 

[HangletonGull]

Atmosphere was flat team was flat their keeper decided to turn into a vintage Dino zoff , 2 points dropped against a team that will go down

As we know, the pretendence is 'tickets sold' - so maybe we're now selling tickets for seats that don't exist?

Didn't he just? Starting to be a bit of a concern our legend.

 

[Cordwainer]

Incredibly frustrating result but still unbeaten and clearly a team evolving/adapting to a new managers way of playing..especially in the attacking third. Few shots from outside of the box wouldn’t go amiss though.

Baleba

 

[Han Solo]

Didn't he just what?

 

[chickens]

Negatives: we wouldn’t have scored if we’d played until Wednesday. Two points dropped.

Positives: Baleba and Hinshelwood both played well, Ferguson had a bright cameo and Ferdi got his first minutes in the stripes under his belt.

For me, the positives outweigh the negatives, however frustrating the result was.

 

[Triggaaar]

Baleba was great.

That's all.

 

[The Fits]

Didn't he just what?

Yes, poor English.
Stroll about. An element of the nonchalant. Perhaps complacent. I won't quite go as far as arrogance.

F-me you daft can’t!

Your one man campaign against Hinshelwood is getting so tiresome. Especially as so many other players were worse than Hinsh today including Dunk and Hinsh’s replacement, Ferdi.

In fact, Hinsh was one of our better performers today bearing in mind the no-shows from folk like Minteh and Ayari. Yet you single him out because you have a personal vendetta. Pathetic.

 

[origigull]

So we didn't win today, Ipswich defended pretty well but we should have got all 3 points. But its the PL and no game is a given win. Positives from today is that we didn't lose, Baleba played well as did JVH and Kadioglu came on and looked good.
