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

[Marty McFly]

Ipswich with a flat back 9 there

 

[Hendrax]

we need to have a few pop shots on goal, they're so compact around the box. too many passes for me.

 

[Hiheidi]

He's been poor so far apart from a near post cross to Welbeck that the keeper got.

Tired coming back from Japan? Adingra on for the second half?

 

[dwayne]

One weak link so far ….

 

[Bodian]

Veltman... Sticks his backside into the attacker to win himself a free kick....

 

[WhingForPresident]

They've managed to waste at least 6/7 mins with fake injuries and goal kicks. Bloody frustrating.

 

[Gabbiano]

Amex sounding as quiet as I've ever heard it, at least from the TV.

Still confident that we'll wear Ipswich down second half. Already dominating, then bring on the likes of Adingra and Enciso to punish tired legs.

 

[oldboyroy]

Their keeper is collecting everything with ease

 

[Bodian]

Quite enjoyable half. I don't feel as annoyed or as frustrated as some times when we dominate games but don't score. Maybe because we haven't (yet) let the sucker-punch one in. Baleba and Ayari having great games.

Up pops a smiling Enciso.

I changed my mind in the score competition when I saw everyone was going for 3-1 including me. I saw 1-0 had about 8 votes so I plumped for that instead.

Glad I did. No chance we're scoring 3 goals today. I'd very much take 1-0 now.

Happens when a shit team turns up playing a back 9 and timewasting at any opportunity.

 

[Weststander]

Second half … need to stop passing and crossing to their keeper. Accuracy.

 

[Zeberdi]

Baleba is looking really solid in that central midfield position - looking more like the Bissouma type player I always thought he could be when we first singed him.

We are winning possession back very quickly, putting together some excellent attacking sequences and completely dominating this match but how the Van Hecke have we not scored yet ?

IPs could very easily start to ‘believe’ they could get something out of this then anything could happen.

 

[Seagull58]

The ref has no idea what's happening in the contacts and tackles. He's just guessing on the freekicks.

 

[de la zouch]

Feels like the Burnley home match

 

[highflyer]

I'll get ahead of the game here.

Two points dropped.

Also.

What IS it with goalies having a worldie against us ffs.

(Still think we will win)

 

[mejonaNO12 aka riskit]

Crosses into the box simply aren't going to do it. Muric is far too good a keeper to catch him out with those. I could see Kadioglu coming on if we feel ok at the back. Full backs simply have to overlap. Round the outside and FIRED in is the key here.

Freed from desire should only be played after a win not before kick off

Looks like no more freed from desire atm. Mitoma missed a sitter, Ipswich defence and keeper having a blinder.
