[Albion] Chelsea vs Brighton & Hove Albion *** Official Match Thread ***

[Washie]

What do we do in training?

Come on Albion, wake up and start paying attention FFS.

 

[portlander]

Too easy. How can he get that space?

 

[Mayonaise]

Matt Ryan great save from the free kick and the corner. Not sure how long we can keep this 1-0 for.

Not long it seems..

 

[midnight_rendezvous]

Another good example of our terrible defending from corners. All that good work in the first half undone.

 

[Hendrax]

Stoke equalise

 

[bhawoddy]

Completely unmarked header. Shocking errors in this half

 

[gripper stebson]

I know we need the points from elsewhere but this tactic of 'defend until we concede and then lose' is a bit depressing.

Not really sport!

Really don't like this tactic against the 'better' teams- we're making ourselves look mugs in these games.

 

[Marxo]

Win the next match and we'll be happy (again).

 

[sir albion]

Shame we set up to not even bother attacking and why does Stephens always foul on the edge of the box?
No threat in a game we're expecting to lose and in these types of games I'd rather we had a go rather than sit back for 90 mins.

 

[GT49er]

If we had 14 players on the pitch we'd still be getting hammered

I don't know - with the chance to get thirteen behind the ball, we might just leave one up...........


......on the other hand, probably not.

 

[Geestar]

Still don't understand not trying to win a game....

Just starting to get frustrated with the way that we are so respectful of the big clubs. It's only really the Manchester United match where we created any problems for our opponents.

Still, nobody would have banked on getting a point today so onwards we go...

 

[bhawoddy]

I'm going for 5-0

 

[sir albion]

Both wingers have spent more time in and around our box than the wings and Chelsea won't get an easier game with those tactics.

 

[Sussex Nomad]

It is what it is, Prem League champions. We never seriously thought we'd come away with something did we? Yes the goals are irritatingly bad. Newcastle matters, Chelsea is a glamour game.

 

[Saltydog]

Need stoke to get the ball in Huddersfield’s net..

We must create our own fortune and not rely on others to do our bidding.

 

[Jesus Gul]

I’m going for 2-3
