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

[Hendrax]

Akanji sent off. 2nd yellow

Let us hope it's not as bad as it looks, and the strapping and stretchering is precautionary. Poor lad.

Went down with nobody around him there's only one way that goes - ACL.

 

[Joey Jo Jo Jr. Shabadoo]

Akanji sent off for the same foul Konate made in the Liverpool game.

Injuries piling up, not good

 

[Steviewonder]

Maybe Enciso (if that's right spelling) will be back soon!

 

[BBassic]

97th minute, chasing the game and we fart around with a weird corner routine

 

[Hendrax]

great corner, again.

 

[Bodian]

97th minute, chasing the game and we fart around with a weird corner routine

Bizarre. Wasted opportunity. Sometimes I really do wish we'd just shoot.

 

[SweatyMexican]

I don’t think Adingra made a single cross that game. Just put the ball in!!!

 

[Ethelwulf]

All over

 

[Mike Small]

Well played lads but that last cross from Gross was SO SHIT. Take a run up and stop lofting them in Pascal - those free kicks are shit.

 

[chickens]

I’d rather have lost by four and still had Solly available. Hope it’s not as serious as it seemed.

 

[US Seagull]

Second half better, but Solly injury is a bitter pill.

 

[Blue3]

Right knee outside edge appears to have given away as he was putting the breaks on while moving sideways, I do hope it’s not serious but from his reaction it did not look good

 

[Marxo]

After 19 mins I expected worse but now I'm wondering what could have been.

 

[Dick Head]

Ah well, at least we're not Palace.

 

[stss30]

Those officials were crooked - how was there only 4 minutes added time in that half with the new rules this season? It's a joke

 

[trueblue]

Ah well. Very good second half. Reports of Brighton & Hove Albion’s demise appear to have been exaggerated.

 

[Hendrax]

our eternal build up and recycling is our downfall. Take a chance with a whipped ball 15% of the times we get to the by-line, instead of going back, and we would have more chances.

 

[TottonSeagull]

Much better 2nd half but can't keep giving teams leads.
Not a game we expected anything but made so much worse with the bad injury to Solly and the hamstring to Wellbeck.
