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

[sydney]

i just said to my lovely wife ....theyre gonna score here i said ....no they won't she said ......lewis dunk will never play for england ....our defending from corners and free kicks is ****ing woeful , you can't blame potter for it , these boys have been defending corners since they were 8 yrs old at the other end our options on set pieces are pathetic .....we showed what we can do when we attack ffs , i know its everton and i know its pissing down but **** me dead why go all the way to merseyside to play like a bunch of goons ffs...

Ryan is the problem IMO. Every team knows he won't come to claim anything, as do our defence. We need someone commanding in goal more than we need a keeper who can play short passes.

Is he f**k

Far more to do with Potter wilfully breaking up the Dunk-Duffy Barrier and installing something far weaker

 

[Ethelwulf]

We need a proper number 2 keeper that can challenge or replace Ryan
It’s so frustrating and the biggest worry is Potter will not change his beliefs going to keep conceding Goals like the 2 we have today and he come out and say the same 2 things we need to learn from this and he believes in the players

Burn for Webster
Lallana for Alzate (Hoops will send him off)

At half-time

I thinks we’ve switched to zonal marking and we’re struggling to adapt to it at the moment.

 

[GT49er]

Lallana on for Alzate soon please. No criticism of Alzate - he should still start alongside Bissouma next game, but right now we need an older, more experienced head in there - plus Hoops is salivating at the thought of giving him a red.

 

[RandyWanger]

Bring off either Dunk or White, and bring on Lallana. Both have been poor.

Edit, thought the commentary said no Lallana today. But BBC showing he's on the bench. Doesn't need someone to come in and take charge.

Why take off Webster, Both Dunk and White have been awful, at least it looks as though he's trying.

4-5-1, Biss to man-mark Rodriguez - job done

 

[Albion Dan]

When we give away a corner or free kick around the area we might just as well let the other team take a pen.

 

[peterward]

Total rubbish, we were equally as inept at defending set pieces in this division with Dunk and Duffy at the back under Hughton.

We've got Roberts as keeping coach, has the time come for a specialist defensive coach?

 

[DarrenFreemansPerm]

We've got Webster playing his 4th Prem game on the left of a 3, We've got White playing his 4th Prem game on the right of a 3, We've got Dunk playing his 4th Prem game in the middle of that 3? Sometimes things take time?

Whilst that is very true, there’s no need to be so weak in the air, playing LCB, RCB or middle of the 3 doesn’t excuse not jumping for headers.

Very disappointing that both headers were inside the 6 yard box, could Ryan have come for either?

 

[Mackenzie]

Right, we’re not out of this. Come on lads, let’s do ‘em.

 

[London Irish]

The second goal looked more like a weak jump from Webster, if you can’t get the ball you at least deny the attacker a free header by getting into him

 

[Washie]

No Lallana today

He's on the bench.

 

[TWOCHOICEStom]

Frustrating that we stopped the better team scoring from open play and managed to nick a goal. Yet we insist on shooting ourselves in the foot. Terrible defending from set pieces AGAIN.

[Jeremiah]

Why are we so adverse to having a pot.

It's a treacherous surface with a weak goalie low on confidence but still we don't shoot !!!

 

[The Fits]

Have to say, this is a worrying spell of form from Dunky.
