[Albion] Brighton & Hove Albion vs Manchester City *** Official Match Thread ***

[jabba]

Please do a goal. I want to see the fans celebrate.

 

[Ethelwulf]

Fun. Let's go for it second half. Nobody will remember a 0-3 defeat against Citeh in a few weeks but we can get a result here.

I agree but sadly we wont

 

[maltaseagull]

We play great football until we get anywhere near their penalty area.
Then we pass to them or their goalie.

Very poor.

Jonny: 'Was that a shot or a cross, Warren?'
Warren: 'If it was a shot it was a bad one; if it was a cross it was a bad one .................. I hope it's better quality than that from Jahanbakhsh in the second half .'

 

[mashman156]

OK, ill rat my words! 2 shocking balls by Ali J

 

[A1X]

Do Hibs fancy Jahanbakhsh?

 

[vagabond]

We haven’t got a recognised striker on the pitch.

Joke.

 

[The Wizard]

Alzate looks like a youth player trying to get the ball off Rodri

 

[Ethelwulf]

Get Ali J off at half time please GP

 

[Lethargic]

Moder replacing Bissouma next season will be a downgrade but not as huge a one as it looked six months ago

I am going to commit herasy here but.... I am not so sure it will be a downgrade, a different style yes Moder is not as good on the defensive side but i think him playing in the middle will drive us forward better and may encourage the team to attack a bit quicker, probably at the expense of a few goals conceded.

 

[The Fits]

Is this a sign Potter doesn't fancy Connolly by the way? Surely exactly the kind of game you'd bring him on in?!

 

[Swansman]

Nothing annoys me more than when a team have 10 men and we don’t take the game to them, I’m aware it’s Man City but a man advantage should make a huge difference in attacking positions.

Lots of "attacking postiions", just very little quality.

 

[hoof hearted]

We haven’t got a recognised striker on the pitch.

Joke.

Tbf nor does City.

 

[maltaseagull]

Matchday threads are great. Almost every Albion player gets criticised at some point.

Is he beyond criticism then?

 

[A1X]

That cheer when Ederson slipped is what we truly lack without fans, no piped in crowd noise has ever had a sarcasm setting

We have no recognised striker on the field…

If we can't get points from a Man City team with 10 players for 70 minutes, nothing to play for and a Champions League final coming up then we will never get points from them.

except maybe some other time.

Also 45 minutes to go.

 

[vagabond]

Damn I really dislike our new kit.

Was digging this seasons classy all blue.

 

[Mackenzie]

What a great first half from the lads. Posing problems for Man City.

Just get that goal now.
