[Albion] Brighton & Hove Albion vs Olympique de Marseille *** Official Match Thread ***

[Affy]

Come on boys.

 

[BevBHA]

Strange team imo not what I would have gone for but what do I know! Come on boys

 

[chrisg]

Apart from Steele, looks fine to me

 

[dstanman]

That team will get the win

 

[Littlemo]

Yeah, it looks a fairly understandable team, we can have a rough guess at who is playing where and everything.

 

[Marty McFly]

3 at the back, or Igor in the Baleba Liberio role?

 

[Bakero]

Hinshelwood RB. Billy and Groß in the middle, presumably.

 

[Bodian]

Hinchy on the bench, Hinsh starting - going to get confusing!

Igor LB was my guess but you may be right

I"m gutted to be missing this one. I don't often post, and not looking for sympathy, but I had urgent soft palate surgery this morning which has meant I can't attend...

My anaesthetist was keen on my ticket, however, as he hadn't managed to get one! I popped it on the exchange this afternoon and hope someone was able to use it.

Fortunately my youngest son and my dad have still gone and I will be watching on the TV this evening - with the added challenge of not being able to scream and shout!

Have a fantastic time everyone lucky enough to go - the line up looks great and so I am feeling that if we can actually take the chances we create, we will win it and march on to the last 16!

UTA!

 

[Swegulls]

I hope Buonanotte is up for it, it will be physical tonight. C'mon Brighton!

 

[Bridcutt]

I hope Buonanotte is up for it, it will be physical tonight. C'mon Brighton!

He's looked better recently

 

[Coldeanseagull]

A very young bench, but getting them used to the big time can only benefit them

 

[Auckland seagull]

I'll be watching from a sports bar in South Carolina. They have just been educated about who Brighton are and what the Europa League is. I feel like a missionary.

it’s started already, Bart hasn’t been good at all in my opinion conceded a few goals that steele would have been slated for

 

[WhingForPresident]

Interesting that the two games each thing for goalkeepers has been broken-is that the first time?

Only down side for me is Veltman not starting. As far as I can recall, we tend to win when he plays and don't when he doesn't.

Two ginormous flagpoles in the way end now

This ^
Obviously don't know how ready Joel is to start

 

[Swegulls]

Yeah, Veltman would be one of the first I would choose if I were RDZ for tonight. I guess we don't know exactly what kind of "personal reasons" he's had to deal with the last week or so.

This. Yes I know it deflected off Milner on Saturday but had that been Steele the knives would have been out big time!
