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

[Hugo Rune]

That’s a magnificent cross from Groß

World Class.

Maupay is not elite level in the air but for an Ulloa or Murray, that’s a goal.

Wow, world class??

Job done so far - the tactics to keep it tight and counter attack are spot on from Potter. We have to carefully watch if Liverpool try and go up a few gears tho in the second half

 

[Frutos]

Good, solid first half overall.

Slightly frustrating that neither Burn nor March was able to test the keeper from their chances, but I'm cautiously optimistic that we can take something from this.

 

[Steve Foster]

Half the job done. Well played Albion.

Be a massive point if we can grab it

Some could argue that having hardly played in months and then playing one of the best teams in the league, it might be acceptable that he's not at the top of his game. But you're right, he's shite, get rid.

in a very very up tempo game as well

 

[Meade's Ball]

He has made less rank mistakes once the game has settled down. That’s all the reasonable fan wants

Ah yes, those supportive hollerers are often the most annoyingly vociferous.

Well I thoroughly enjoyed that. Nice to be completely relaxed watching a game for once too knowing it's a free hit and others around us have lost this week.

 

[mashman156]

Looking very solid at the back and disciplined in midfield. Created a few chances including one where Burn should have scored. Good Half, could go either way...

 

[The Fits]

Very good first half.
Team isn't quite right, but we're in this so I wouldn't know what to suggest.
We definitely miss March on the left (he has been decent on the right but is a proper player on the left), Alzate a bit of a passenger, sadly. Burn has settled.
We've missed Mac in the middle, that little bit of guile in the final third.
Overall very positive.
Maybe Lallana for Alzate?
Tau and/or Connolly to run at them if it's still tight after 60.

Kevin Friend is having a good game.

Yeah and I'm pretty sure he was the ref v Leeds. Let's hope it's an omen.

45 more minutes like that please

 

[vagabond]

How dare we don’t just turn up and roll over!

Good half whatever happens. Yet again a team who the commentators will say are playing below their normal game without crediting Albion for excellent defending from the front

I think some people hear what they want to hear. We got loads of praise after beating spurs, after the game, on motd etc. There was constant praise for our performance and current form all through the first half tonight.

Don't do Twitter myself, but if you can and want to reply to him you could ask him how many teams in the PL have list fewer games than us this season.


The answer is 9, by the way, just the top nine in the league, that's all.

World Class.

Or Welbeck

 

[Swansman]

So far so good if we ignore (and I think we can allow ourselves to do that) that the game is pretty fecking dull.

If Bissouma & Alzate get a bit more of a foothold in this game there's even a chance for 3p.

 

[Meade's Ball]

I like how, quite a few times, we coolly escape their press. That is a team that knows each other and what they are doing. Me likey likey longtime.

 

[London Irish]

Looked odd to start with but well played and all level at half time is no mean feat.

Cracking cross from Gross, if only we had a striker.

Can we go up a gear ?

Only by bringing on Tau and Connolly and I suspect Potter will stick with what he has for now. But if we start getting pushed back too deep, I hope he acts
