[Albion] Crystal Palace vs Brighton & Hove Albion *** Official Match Thread ***

[The Wizard]

It’s been poor from both sides.

 

[southstandandy]

61% posession though. Could we be this year's Bournemouth?

 

[Steve Foster]

Absolutely nothing doing once we get near their penalty box.

... too late to buy a centre forward ( not that I think we were going too

 

[Muzzy]

I hope March pays Biss’s yellow card fine after that crap free kick!

 

[larus]

God, I hate Alan Smith as a commentator.

 

[London Irish]

Some nice football in midfield without a huge amount of penetration undermined by a silly defensive mistake. Sums up the season so far and sums up much of Potter’s football. Hope we can turn it around in second half

 

[AmexRuislip]

Palace are streetwise, we are a bit green belt

Corrected for you!

 

[doogie004]

Pile of shite last seven attacks not even past final third

Poor half, for all the early domination no goal threat at all. Palace are a very average side!

 

[Motogull]

The ref is a proper bungle**** and no mistake.

Palace are shit but leading.

 

[zefarelly]

Did anyone notice the Palace keepr running out and catching the ball? Is that allowed?

 

[Washie]

Bissouma offering **** all, need a Stephens or Propper.

Sadly this has now settled into that football classic of a possession and passing team, up against a team leading who put huge numbers in defence and steal goals on the counter.

Not a criticism of Potter, but once we go a goal down against counter attackers, what tactics can he employ?

We rarely do clean sheets, which is a big hindrance. As much as I prefer GP to CH’a brand of football, I wish we were a nightmare to score against.

 

[portslade seagull]

We've lost this as we have no idea when we get near their box

 

[portlock seagull]

Oh yeah. Totally. But it’s one of those blame the game, not the player situations.
As soon as we didn’t score Early despite dominating, something like that was always going to happen.
Concede a goal, hard luck story.
Palace are streetwise, we are a bit green.
I fear for us now, as palace are good at stinking the place out once they’ve got a goal in the bank.

How are we always green though? Different teams down the years constantly get accused of this? Why don’t we ever have a manager who ****ing bollocks naivety like it should be? Because you lose matches with it. Again. And again. So they need to be much much much better at it or be dropped.

 

[Hugo Rune]

Palace have done nothing other than dive in the penalty area and go in 1-0 up.

I hate football sometimes.

 

[GoingUp]

Our final pass and cross as been terrible, we need to sort that out....... somehow.

 

[Paulie Gualtieri]

White or burn off for Alzate would be my call.

Missing Alzate badly, really not sure about White in midfield.

And Trossard has to get into the game, been anonymous.

March has been very good as per usual.

Agree with first two points

Massively disagree with the 3rd.... easy to defend against March, just show him onto his right foot and he has nothing.

 

[folkestonesgull]

Need to get Burn off, march back to wingback and Connolly upfront with maupay
