[Albion] Brighton & Hove Albion vs Manchester United *** Official Match Thread ***
- Thread starter Dick Head
- Start date
Gyorkeres is not good enough, full stop imo
I’ve seen quite a bit of him but he doesn’t stand out. He is still young though.

I hoped VG would be an option but he looks miles off at the moment. Going to need to improve significantly to get anywhere near close to Prem quality.

Smart money is on the cricket score.
I have seen NOTHING to make me agree with you
No it was a question [emoji23][emoji23][emoji23]
Personally don’t think he’ll make it

What if Maupay gets injured? Those numbers above = relegation

Need a STRIKER. Simple.

This. Can't be bothered to read any more of his thread (yours is the third post I've read). I can imagine the bedwetting. Some people live 40, 50, 60 years acting like they are newly hatched
More good experience. Some decent play. The exact result I predicted in the prediction compo. Onwards and upwards
Except, Potter looked seriously p’d off with the goals conceded or events leading up to them. Not seen that before with him.
Not the usual philosophical, many positives to take from that. There weren’t really, other than Trossard and Jahanbakhsh were good. Several first teamers such as Dunk, Burn, White played poorly. Defensive work awful, sterile at attacking set pieces.
I’d love to be party to Ashworth/Potter discussions tomorrow.
(I got the 0-3 correct too)

I don’t disagree with you and I’m not complaining in any way but if I were Potter I’d be very frustrated and be open to going to a club who would be willing to back me.
He deserves better than we can offer, the guy is a mega manager in the making and big clubs will know that

You can feel the atmosphere around him, other teams and managers seems to love him. I reckon he is off in two seasons at most.
I didn't think the performance was so bad.
I thought most played reasonably well. The negative reactions on here are stemming from an increase I " Expectations " which seem to be going unmanaged.
That level of performance will yield points against lesser Clubs so nothing to be concerned about tonight.
It's great to have a feel good factor within the squad but if you start to overlook the quality that some other teams have then the team could end up going a goal down to teams who the shut up shop and make it difficult to get behind them.
But all in all I thought tonight was an OK performance. They just scored their first 2 goals at crucial stages in the match.

23 next Birthday, he's not going to make it at PL level, he'd need to be further down the road than he is......
Sure he'll have a decent enough career at a different level or lesser league, but let's be real, he looked completely out of his depth against the likes of Man U.
No Shame in that, but not a solution for us in the PL. We're 2 front line strikers only right now

This is a bit of worry for me, so is the one of the big 6.

If it wasn't bad enough risking injuries to Dunk and White, GP brought on Maupay and then Trossard. Madness. Shows what I think of this cup competition. Saying that, the 3 games have given insights in to strengths/weaknesses of the second streamers. The likes of Molumby and Sanders were impressive. Bernardo, my word.
He's a Brighton manager of the NOW
He's not the Messiah, he's a very good coach.
