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

[Swansman]

going to be a strange affair. not in our favour as Chelsea have pulled out of the ESL as their players will probably feel more relaxed.

Not in our favour because their players are better. Relaxation got little to do with it.

 

[Jovis]

Huh? What’s different to our last unchanged lineups?

Are you missing the breakneck pace of Lallana and Maupay?

If you think we’re a better team without Lallana I’m not sure what you’ve been watching?

 

[*Gullsworth*]

Wow its unravelling very fast.....good. Now lets get on with the footie.

 

[Sheebo]

Kick off delayed by 15.

Is this purely down to the Fans outside the stadium? Ridiculous really. Nobody seems to have given a reason on the beeb.

Yes ypur club pulled out but the bitter taste will live long - not praising Chelsea or City for this one bit - the fact they had the nerve to do it is all that matters to a lot of us.

 

[Eeyore]

Yes.... I hope this news doesn't cause a 'bounce' in Chelsea's favour.....

Yes, the little toads could have waited till tomorrow.

SkySports News reported it as our bus getting delayed by the protests.

Tuchel is getting his excuses in early

Strange comment. I don’t believe I said that at all. Feel free to quote where I did.

I was responding to a poster bemoaning the changes making us a slow team with no pace, and I merely pointed out the players left out (Lallana and Maupay) are hardly pacey.

We're still wearing the T-shirts.

 

[Mancgull]

I wonder how quickly the others will pull out? the sequence of this will show who the ringleaders are, and probably confirm that it was Man United and Liverpool.

 

[Sarisbury Seagull]

From a selfish Brighton point of view, got to say I’m really glad there are no fans in the ground tonight. If there was that place would be bouncing and I’d be quite fearful of a hammering!

Can’t help but feel Chelsea pulling out is bad for our prospects in this game. Have a feeling that good news will fire them up.

That poster also made the point about creativity - but you ignored that bit. If you think Lallana doesn’t make us more creative, I respectfully disagree.

Alan Smith again [emoji38] is he contracted to commentate all our games

 

[rogersix]

Hopefully the team selection alone will be enough to bore the Chelsea players into submission. It's been a while since I've seen a team selection so devoid of pace and creativity.

cheer up!

Yes, Groß has just said so in the interview posted......

Man U, the club that destroyed the FA Cup now attempting to do the same to the PL/Football League pyramid.

What is this. I don’t think that. I didn’t say that. Quote where I did?

Respectfully please stop inventing things I haven’t said.

Clubs needing to draw up legal paperwork suggests they were/are fully committed to the new league.
