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

[Jeremiah]

Ali J - poor defending and attacking in the first half. Needs to up his game.

 

[Swansman]

Our best chance of scoring is probably a penalty. This is a problem.

Only took you 37 games to notice eh

Only a goal down against a team with 10 men.
We have no striker on the pitch.

Potter, stop playing against the name and start playing against the 10 men on the pitch.

They are playing against the 10 world class opponents on the pitch.

 

[Mancgull]

I’m glad we’ve been giving Ali J a chance in these last few games. It confirms that I don’t think he can succeed at this level.
Moder, on the other hand looks the real deal.

A team full of creative players and no-one who can score on the pitch

 

[SockMonster]

We only have two subs left.

Good point, well made.

With no recognised striker. Why tie one arm behind our own back this way?

 

[GT49er]

zeqiri for AJ
Caicedo for Mac
Karbo for Gross

We've made one sub already ...........

 

[jabba]

Maybe Tau time?

 

[Pavilionaire]

I'm in a minority here but I'm tired of the lack of end product from us.

The fans are back, we are safe, we have a man advantage and are one down, yet Ederson has had nothing to do. Potter must get more from his forwards; Welbeck looks like the only Prem class forward we have at the moment. We can do better than this.

What has Potter got to lose , staying up , first crowd for ages , 10 men, just chuck on connelly and zequiri FFS
Why Andone was needed on the bench and not 2 goalie

Only strikers can score ? Maybe too much netball during lockdown (we all had to do what we had to, in order to get through )

 

[R. Slicker]

I’m at the game and all I have read on here is posters slagging the team off.

Bissouma has been excellent
White has had Foden in his pocket
Webster has been rock solid.

City break at the speed of light.

How about a bit of positivity?

Well said, TBH I wouldn't take a lot of notice of match day threads. See comment above from Bluemoon32.

Interesting observation. Connolly would certainly make the attacking runs that are lacking at the moment....

When he first appeared you'd see a ten man, expansive team the absolutely game for him to make a difference.
Really has lost his way IMHO.

 

[Mackenzie]

Right.

Come on Brighton.

This season it feels like only our strikers have, to be fair...

 

[Happy Exile]

See Bissouma come out last for the 2nd half and look like he was marking the moment? I may be reading too much into it though.

 

[Swansman]

Much like they've done all season. Worked out quite nicely.

 

[Sarisbury Seagull]

Ali J’s first touch of the second half - gives the ball away. What a surprise.

 

[mashman156]

Let's do this. Make a good game of it and get something from it!!

 

[The Wizard]

Ali literally can’t find a blue and white shirt

Maybe potter is playing him to make a point to big tone that we need better
