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

[Flounce]

Clear penalty so that's two we should have had

Nope, neither were pens imo

 

[nwgull]

Except you give more shots when you surrender possession - I do think it’s hard on Steele his games were Roma away and Man City but he’ll take it - shame about the scapegoaters - those fans don’t deserve the 6th place Steele gave them last season

Steele got us to 6th on his own? No credit to Sanchez for the 23 league games he played in goal then?

2 pens not given. VAR is just a joke. TV commentary said both were.
Without doubt if that was City or Utd it would be given.

Both were clear penalties.

That’s a pen!

He’s pushed him in the back! That happens to Foden and it’s a foul.

That doesn't happen to Foden and its a foul.

 

[Flounce]

They are comprehensively better than us in every position. They have dominated possession. They have game changing world class players all over the pitch. We have 10 or so players out injured. But it is all down to Jason Steele...

Well the opening goal definitely was.

 

[portlock seagull]

Reckon mentally it was massive him for AFCON, just like certain players had WC hangovers. Then coming into a team out of form, he's spent.

Or he could have just hit a career purple patch and now it’s gone gone gone

 

[London Irish]

Steele would struggle to get into any championship team why the f*** does RDZ keep picking him !!!! With Bart in goal yes we would still be losing but not 4-0

We’d be losing 4 nil - two of the goals gifted by refs

 

[aolstudios]

How bent is this ref.

100%

 

[Albion my Albion]

Ref AND VARcan kiss my lily white German American arse.

 

[maltaseagull]

VAR not in operation tonight apparently

Business as usual. Big clubs get the decisions.

 

[Flounce]

Both were clear penalties.

I have blue tinted specs but not a chance either were

 

[Weststander]

The lickers have their nsc distraction for the days ahead …. officiating robbed (a gawd awful Albion team).

 

[Wrong-Direction]

The club are preparing a statement..

 

[The Fits]

Or he could have just hit a career purple patch and now it’s gone gone gone

Not at 22.

Not to go all Roy Keane on you but the goalkeepers job is to stop the ball going in the net. He’s not very good at his job.

 

[A1X]

Johnny and Warren both reckon not a penalty

They’re wrong, but there we go

 

[maltaseagull]

Nope, neither were pens imo

Alan Smith ex Pro disagrees.

 

[Driver8]

Assume a few Dirhams will be landing in the ref and VARs bank account tonight.

 

[AlexBH]

That trip was probably the only foul against City all game
