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

[willalbion]

Fair enough result, we dropped right off after our equaliser. Thought JPVH should have stayed on. Lewis looked rusty, bad day at the office that

January has arrived early . . . . Lets hope we snap into spring before Christmas

My concern is the predictability . . . .

 

[portslade seagull]

How many more points will we drop in this supposed easy run. We just don't have the right attitude to beat these teams

 

[HeaviestTed]

Ho hum, not great. Hopefully do better on Sunday.

Giving £200 mil to this guy is tragic! Imagine what RDZ would have done with that sort of money!

He probably would have sulked about not being able to spunk it on one or two luxury players on bonkers wages.

 

[Greenbag50]

Lacking intensity and players with hands up not seemingly knowing what to do….
Not pressed high enough
Not good enough

 

[Marxo]

The HORROR

Signed Mason Greenwood given half a chance

No thanks.

He was complaining about being fouled at the corner where they scored, which he was.

He wasn't fouled. Just flung himself in the air after being flat footed. Then, as Class Captain, mouths off and gets booked. Should never, ever had started.

The scapegoating of individual players is embarrassing.

At 1-1 the game was ours for the taking and with so many options on the bench we should have gone for it.

If I hear ‘trust the process’ after the game I will scream.

This.

 

[Badger]

Frustrating. We looked decent for long periods of the match.

JVH Not his fault Manager doesnt have the balls to leave out Dunk or Ignor so plays a 3. JVH outstanding CB but always looks out of place defending out wide. Same as Dunk defending out wide. Why did he take Pedro off and not put Minteh on at half time. 3/10 for manager tonight.

When was the last time we won a weekday game in the league!? Feels a very familiar feeling of frustration right now on a midweek evening

Based on this comment, absolutely nothing.

Agree entirely. Wieffer was top of the pick for us. Looks like he is number 1 target for a few.

The scapegoating of individual players is embarrassing.

Our NSC fanbase is pretty embarrassing to be honest.

I'm pretty sure these entitled folk think we should be smashing everyone every week, for some bizarre, deluded and completely unknown reason.

This is a great squad, great season... and contrary to the beliefs of many on here, this young squad ain't gonna win every game.

Decent performance today. Unlucky BHA. Onwards and upwards

No I’m not attacking them for tonight if you read my post - I’m saying they’re generally not good enough for us and we made a mistake not strengthening in the RB and CB positions and bringing on Ferguson for Joao Pedro is an absolute waste of time as he’s a bit shit TBH and a massive, massive downgrade on Joao Pedro.

But actually, Adingra has been total dog shit tonight to.

I read your post.

Let’s be blunt though, our best CB was played out of position and rinsed all night. Our captain kept up his poor form this season. Our marauding LB, playing out of position, seemed unable to find a Brighton player for most of the game. Our apparently magical LW had yet another game where he flattered to deceive, missing another good chance. Our two big money summer signings look all at sea, with one scoring Fulham’s second and the other continuing his awful form since the summer. And our young GK, who’s clearly excellent, gave them their first goal…

The only real positives were Baleba’s goal (not his performance - he spent the whole game trying to carry Weiffer and O’Reily), Igor at CB, and JP up front.

But most of our starters were really poor… yet you’ve gone after the players who’ve barely played, both of which had long term injury and health problems last year, but both of which have proven their ability when given regular game time…

Saying that, I do agree with you about our summer signings. I was told I was an idiot for saying we’d not really improved the weak areas of our first 11 despite spending £200m, and I stand by that. It blows my mind, to be honest.

Well, this place will be fun for the next few hours

 

[Sussax]

Bad all round.

Moment of naivety from Bart and Adingra was never going to work with 3 at the back. Lamptey coming on was the nail in the coffin.

Dunk and JPVH had poor games but can’t blame them, all on the manager for playing the back 3. Don’t care who the CB pairing is, need to be back to 4 at the back for Sunday.

Agree, the three at the back cost the game.
