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

[Birdie Boy]

Not only was that a our best first half this season but our only one! Keep it up boys!

Great 1st half. Just what we needed after last Wednesday. Need to be strong and take our chances 2nd half.

 

[trueblue]

Probably the first time this season that we haven’t gifted the opposition an opportunity to score, very few mistakes or misplaced passes - just need to defend the inevitable onslaught and maybe nick a goal on the counter

Please don't say things like that

McAllister will get sent off second half

Would be interesting and a real benefit.

We've had other first halves this season, shirley?

Is this our first game of the season? If so I've completely lost it.

 

[Frutos]

Given that we're away to one of the top 3 sides, we've played brilliantly, but Liverpool have had a couple of good chances too. There's not been much in it IMO.

At the moment, Liverpool are at home to one of the top 3 sides.

I personally think we have been poor in pretty much every first half and upped our game in the second half. It's good to see us start well for a change.

 

[Southern Scouse]

I thought Brighton would score first… but may have been a little optimistic the Reds would win 3-1!
TAA needs to stop thinking about Madrid, I’d take him off and the midfield needs to get going otherwise I just see another Brighton goal. That would be a real happy/sad moment.

 

[jcdenton08]

I’d gladly take a point!

So wasteful, we needed to get two or three that half, Liverpool are very likely to come roaring back sadly

 

[Bodian]

McAllister will get sent off second half

He does look a little hot-headed today.

It does feel like we haven't put together a top quality 90 minutes so far. Superb in patches. Hopefully today is the day.

2 - 0 and I feel like it would be ours. However, play like we have been in the second half and a possible 3 points (and third...THIRD!) spot is ours.
Add to that, we're playing very, very well.....keep it up!

 

[Hometownglory]

Really proud of the team after that first half display. Liverpool will really push in the second half, so hopefully we can see some of that metal we showed at St James' Park! Keep going Albion.

 

[Si Gull]

Anyone else feeling rather nervous?

 

[deletebeepbeepbeep]

Was also thinking that I can see Mac Allister getting a second yellow.

 

[Triggaaar]

I thought Brighton would score first… but may have been a little optimistic the Reds would win 3-1!

When they do turn it around (probably with some help from the ref), can you celebrate away from NSC?

 

[Bodian]

TAA needs to stop thinking about Madrid, I’d take him off

He gives it away a lot doesn't he - does he normally do that?

 

[Birdie Boy]

It does feel like we haven't put together a top quality 90 minutes so far. Superb in patches. Hopefully today is the day.

And I just think that means when we finally get everyone back and FHs tactics have been used more than 10 games, we will just get even better!

 

[Frutos]

Anyone else feeling rather nervous?

Yep, as I have done for every Albion game I've watched over the last 31 and a bit years!
