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

Better to have him strong for a game we can more likely get a result from. We are playing a lot of games in a short period of time.

Man City?

 

[JamesAndTheGiantHead]

We need to build the team around Lamptey, put up a statue and name a stand after him.

 

[Drebin]

They're actually quite a dirty side aren't they!

They are when they’re being outplayed, which they were for large parts of the game.

Overjoyed at having a team who play like that.

There it is 'cruised to a 3-1 victory'. How predictable.

They weren't cruising from before our goal until we brought three subs on. I'm not sure why Mac Allister made way. I'd have hooked Stephens (and, I'm a Stephens fan

 

[AlbionBro]

Almost as many as Zaha?

Apologies, that was all shots and not just the ones on target.

I don't know how many Zaha has had they didn't say.

Bravo

I thought we matched them apart from two unfortunate mistakes and a moment of magic from Salah. I’m proud of our performance tonight regardless of the result. So much positivity to build on.

Don’t mind losing if we put in that effort just got to get rid of the shite

Me too, but then Stephens played THAT pass to Trossard

 

[Albion100]

Does that mean that Webster and Propper should now be dropped for quite a while?

Hopefully

Potters notes

1 don't give them 2 gift goals in the first 10 minutes
2 err.......

Definitely a key area that we need to upgrade in. Ryan has been ok over the past 3 seasons - not too many clangers, but there's too many goals this season where you feel a better keeper would have saved them. Walton would be an improvement on the two current back up keepers though not sure he's ready to push for a starting position yet.

Remember Ryan was a reserve at Valencia when he was signed - he is 28 years old and has reached his ceiling. He is what he is - a decent goalkeeper who turned out somewhat better than I expected, but could just as easily be playing for a Championship team. Upgrade at goalkeeper would move the team forward - but good goalies are difficult to find and can cost a lot.

We tired at the end there again but we scored again and I am sure Klopp would agree we gave them a game for a while there.

Really enjoyed that from 10 mins onwards. Some really lovely football and plenty of positives. Trossard and Lamptey standouts for me, but Burn too bar his miss. Some brilliant interplay and moved the ball about with pace and intent. If only we could take more chances, and start a game well (bar Leicester of late)

I think that the goalie Ryan needs to have somebody pushing him for his place as he has lost all consistency this year.

 

[Milano]

That was a terrible miss from Burn at 1-2, has to score. The mistakes weren’t all at the back.

 

[Muzzy]

A bit more belief, a few silly mistakes cut out early doors and we could have got something out of the game.
No disgrace to lose to the champions, so being disappointed is a bit surreal.
I guess we got what we deserved but at least we weren’t totally outclassed.
A decent effort after the 9th minute, I thought.

 

[Not Andy Naylor]

I wonder if Ajax still want Propper? Can we do a package deal with him and Ali J?
