[Albion] Leicester City vs Brighton & Hove Albion *** Official Match Thread ***

[*Gullsworth*]

These are a good side were loose

In the game at the Amex they seemed turbo- charged and made us look flat footed. We need youth, Alzate, Maccy mac, Lamptey and Bernado please.

This round of matches could well see a couple of teams below us gain a bit of ground.

I can't see anything other than 3 points for Watford vs Burnley, for example.

So, when the table doesn't look quite so good going into the weekend we'll still need to 'hold the nerve'.

I'd love a point tonight.

Up against a team that want to win as opposed to teams that don't really care. Be happy with a draw but in reality just keep that GD down.

 

[Icy Gull]

A year ago, this would have been a free hit from which we got nothing, tonight we may just surprise the football world again...or maybe not.

Actually didn’t we play quite well at Leicester last season even though we lost?

 

[Uh_huh_him]

Expecting a point and no more from this one.

I thought Leicester did a really smart job on us in the home fixture. They absorbed pressure in a very organised fashion. Looked in control most the game and then hit us on the break after waiting for us to make a mistake. I expect them to put the pressure on from the goal tonight. I am not expecting anything from tonight, another Davy Propper goal would be nice.

I would take a point all day long, hope they have an off day, and that we are on form.

Yes we were okay and scored, but I came away from the ground thinking we needed to concentrate for the full 90 plus minutes.

 

[Insel affe]

I secretly fancy a win tonight, and regain our bogey team status.

 

[Marty___Mcfly]

Leicester are very bright and nippy up front. I expect Maty Ryan to be busy this evening. May be a case of 'can we score one more than them?'

I reckon wheel bee massively loose and end up with a 2-3 away win #UTA #Gullsonlockdown

I can feel something. Either I've got a massive fart building up, or we are going to win tonight.

 

[dingodan]

Never mind, I farted.

I reckon it's the fart



edit: too slow!

confirmed.

 

[Swansman]

Could go either way. The team looked really fit against Arsenal, excluding Mooy who looked exhausted after 30. If this was about the fitness of the starters, I could see a very similar starting eleven but with Mooy replaced by March. Either that or a very different one. Macallister will get at least 30 min.

Curious if Bernardo will be in the match squad, he will be needed at some point.

 

[lawros left foot]

Albion at 19/4 for the win tonight.

 

[JVacation]

Actually really fancy the win tonight - The big break I actually think has swung a big advantage over to the underdog teams. The top teams are not themselves and the wins are build off from grit and determination. Younger players are the way to go.

 

[WilburySeagull]

Judging by weather may use all the subs tonight so who starts may not matter so much.

Absolutely this! - all four in my team n the 'Team for Leicester' thread.


Expect Stephens, Mooy, Gross and Murray ................................

 

[Garry Nelson's Left Foot]

Like many, I'm in the point is a great result camp.

Unlike many I reckon that point will come from a 30 yard Stephens thunderbolt.*



















*I don't. It would be great if it did though

 

[bluenitsuj]

I would take 3 points
