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

[Uh_huh_him]

A few people around me seemed to think there were 2 balls on the pitch briefly for their 2nd.

Anything in it?
Or just wishful thinking?

Something seemed off with their second, I thought there was a bouncing ball or something.

However, I'm sure VAR will have spotted anything incorrect.

I assumed that it was nothing as I couldn't see a thread about it on here

 

[tigertim68]

Certainly didn’t seem at fault for either goal?

Not sure about the second goal , seem to be loads of room at The far post

 

[tigertim68]

Sanchez in goal against Palace, please. I feel Steele lost his place with that performance

I thought their first goal was a bit fortunate

Clutching at straws, the ball had been delivered before the second ball came on to the pitch near where the corner had been taken from, the corner taker just pushed it back off the pitch

Please Explain? Couldn’t do anything about either goal, made a very good save down to his right. Distribution very good again? Crazy some people on here clearly no fans or all knowledge just see they concede 2 and blame the keeper.

Unlikely as it may be, if could still go up to 4th ahead of spurs if we win our games in hand
I think Chelsea and their (inevitable) resurgence worries me more than anything - it'd be a shame to finish below them now

 

[Gabbafella]

On the way home, a little deflated by the result but an entertaining game. We definitely should have won but also could have lost, and with Brentford and Liverpool losing and hopefully Fulham losing tomorrow the weekend isn't exactly a write off.
I thought we were wasteful today, Mac should've had a couple, Wellbz too, and Webster was shit.
Estupinan was man of the match for me.

Bring on Wednesday, make the most of our games in hand.

Yeah, it was nothing really. What bothered me was as the corner was being taken one of our defenders (not sure which one it was) had his back to the corner taker and was lost in his own world.

Spot on. Had a superb game and is Brightons number 1

The stream I found had Andy Walker as commentator, and I believe he’s half the reason I’m feeling so annoyed tonight. It was like watching the game with a mate who’s supporting the other team, and only he was allowed to talk.

Feeble attempt to save the second goal. I think Sanchez would have stopped it. Sanchez may have reached the first one too.

YES ! What a moaning knob he was. Couldn’t find anything positive to say all game. It got really annoying.

 

[Seagull58]

Yes, it was a deflection that rook it over his head and in off the underside of the bar but I think Sanchez might well have tipped it over.

 

[Seagull58]

He made a great save in the first haf though - accrding to Johnny and Warren anyway.

He made one very good save to get down and push a daisy cutter round the post.

Absolutely crazy have you even watched the second goal back? speculation to say you think Sanchez saves them, he doesn’t save either of them. We didn’t win this game simply down to not taking our chance and nothing else.

“Sanchez might well have tipped it over” . Gotta love the internet

Aspinall and Cantor were surprisingly downcast too, even when we were winning. Repeatedly critical of our play in the final third, powder puff shots, allowing a weak Leeds team to counter us at will. A horrible listen.

 

[Simster]

I actually agree with both.

However, he might also have dropped a routine catch from a cross, right at Bamford's feet.

On balance, Sanchez has got what he deserved and we didn't win primarily because Welbeck and Mac Allister both missed very presentable chances, both unmarked inside the penalty box with just the keeper to beat.
