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

[Standeasy]

Fu*k, feel for Solly. Terrible to blast a pen over. He's had such a great season though. Shame we didn't have Welbeck or Ferg to take one.

Why let Solly take a penalty?

Hahahahahaha!!!!!!!!!!!!

Unlucky tappy-tenders! C'mon you Gooners!

if you are here to win a popularity contest you have just fecked it for the ar5e

 

[The Wookiee]

Gutted - IMO should not have taken Ensico off

 

[The Fits]

Didn't play well. Not a surprise. Feel for Solly but he will be fine. Great pens before that. Let's nail down fifth place now.

 

[Eeyore]

The prize was only to be Manchester City's next meal anyway. Let's smash them in the league.

 

[Eric the meek]

Chin up everyone. We matched Man Utd in every department except the odd penalty miss. We are competing in and amongst the top 6 and holding our own.

There's much to be positive about.

 

[BBassic]

Poor Solly.

Hope this doesn't affect him too much. He's had a wonderful season and one moment shouldn't detract from that.

 

[Garry Nelson's Left Foot]

Oh, poor poor Solly. I hope that doesn't ruin his season.

 

[chickens]

Well done lads, great effort and I’m proud to support this team. Solly, you’re a legend.

They couldn’t beat us in 90 minutes, or extra time.

Who else was there at that point? He's had a great season.

 

[GoingUp]

Hate left footed penalties in general.

 

[Mike Small]

Gutted and felt we were the better team.

For the penalties, wish Sanchez got a stronger arm to Sabitzers and (to me) it was blindingly obvious that Weghorst was going to side foot as he's shit. Bad to go the wrong way. Good to see him playing well though.

 

[birthofanorange]

I'm looking forward to smashing them in the league - Solly to do the business.

Are you lost?

Why let Solly take a penalty?

I suppose after 12 pens it was getting to the stage where someone had to take the 13th one. By that stage whoever it was going to fall to was likely to be reluctant. Six of his teammates had had they go before it got to him.

 

[Affy]

It’s just unlucky. Two good teams and Brighton were better over the 120 minutes. Penalties are always unfair imo. Gutted to lose and harsh on Solly But we could and maybe should have put it to bed earlier.

 

[BLOCK F]

Oh well, the world is still spinning and we are going to win all our remaining fixtures.
Whatever happens, it is a great season and not over yet.

 

[oldboyroy]

At time I said please not Solly, but hey ho, someone had to step up. Feel for him and let's hope we can recover quickly by beating Forest on Wednesday.

 

[vegster]

Gutted, we did not deserve to lose to that shower.
