[Albion] Leeds United vs Brighton & Hove Albion *** Official Match Thread ***

[DumLum]

After a year? You fickle fecker

Look forward to your reaction after Fulham

The fence will be thinner if somebody gets 3 points in that one.

 

[Worried Man Blues]

Those two sky commentators really didn't want us to win, even more special, see you next Tuesdays. Laugh I nearly bought a round of drinks, BF.

 

[WATFORD zero]

Not so sure. R5 pundit now giving us massive credit. I think many of them have been baffled that we have so few points, given the way we play. I'm expecting comments about Leeds more along the lines of 'other teams have found them out', 'naive', 'lacking real quality' which to my mind are closer to the truth.

Well I'm baffled, so it's no wonder they are

Now COME ON CHELSEA

 

[Thunder Bolt]

The TV people were better. At half time Beckford and Redknapp said we completely outplayed Leeds. Hang on....'Totally and thoroughly deserved win' said the R5 chap seconds ago. 'Well organised and disciplined'.

I was so nervous second half I'm still shaking now.

Strange how some people have actually turned into bullies in the way they make contemptuous comments about our manager and his team.

I was a wreck in the second half as I was just waiting for the ‘inevitable’ equaliser, which fortunately didn’t come.
Having said that, Elland Road is usually a happy hunting ground for the Albion.

I still don’t think Potter is right for us but happy to be proved wrong.

 

[Hastings gull]

Strangely unstressful? I spent the whole of the second half expecting an unlucky equaliser or a dodgy penalty.

Yes, given our tendency not to hold on to a lead, I too was expecting the same! But nonetheless, a superb performance, but let's build on it with a very vital home win against Fulham.

Fulham are on fire so we need Chelski to be well fired up.

Blue is the colour................................

 

[Guinness Boy]

Did a great job on them and that is credit to Potter for coming up with the plan and the players for carrying it out. Worth adding that we've had a far tougher week to prepare than them. Got to give credit where it's due. I hope this isn't a false dawn coz I'm currently heading back to the fence. Out coaching Bielsa is a big tick in the box.

I'd better tag [MENTION=19]Icy Gull[/MENTION] in case he doesn't see this

Indeed. We've had one team in blue win away against a team in white today......

 

[crookie]

Said pre match had doubts with that selection, but what do I know !!?? Superb team performance and well-deserved 3 points. Massive result

After playing 120 minutes on a terrible surface at Newport and then going toe to toe with Citeh on Wednesday, that - on a field that was barely fit for grazing cattle - has to rank alongside our best performances of recent seasons.

I have to agree also we fought for every ball today something that’s been lacking. Well done GP and the boys

Forget the fence GB, leap it and get the side where the sun shines brightly.

 

[London Irish]

I'm delighted.

Hopefully you lot will learn a lesson and keep the faith.

People who in the wake of a brilliant win spend their time obsessively cutting and pasting comments on the Internet are joyless nerds I’m afraid, sorry bout that

A bit early in the evening for watching porn, isn't it?

 

[Seasider78]

Players looked really focused and maintained the levels of concentration and performance for 90min which we have often be guilty of not achieving.

Let’s carry those levels into the Fulham game and rest of the season and we will find ourselves picking up a lot more points

 

[andy1980]

There it is, a win. We played well. I had a feeling they were going to nick a draw, but we showed some Steel. I think I am going to have a happy week now. Well done Graham Potter.

If the pundits bothered to watch us rather than the top 6 then they would have known that we play nice football but fail to take a lot of the chances we create and we have struggled to defend set pieces.
So much better today, hopefully we can get the others fit and go on to get more points now.
Our goal was nothing short of magnificent.
If that was Barcelona the commentator would have committed a lewd act live on air.

Pundits eh....Martin (poor eyesight) Keown

Match still in progress

Brighton have taken all three of their forward players off and are playing virtually inside their own penalty area.

It looks like it is going to work, but I'm not sure Graham Potter should have done it that early as it invited Leeds on.

This will be an outstanding result for Brighton, though.


At final whistle


When Brighton went ahead they never looked like conceding and the manager changed the tactics beautifully.

Leeds didn't have a shot worthy of the name until the 62nd minute.

An outstanding performance from Brighton.

What's the point in having a mind if you can't change it?
