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

[GT49er]

Couldn't be more proud and also more convinced that we are capable of a top 10 finish. Every player bled blue and white and we are staying up on that performance.

Pity we didn't play in blue and white then.

So proud to see Paul Pogba of Manchester United taking the ball into the corner in the last minute to hold on for a win against Brighton. How far we've come.

Quite clearly a team thats good enough for this league

0-0 would have been fair imo. played well but when we had an opportunity to fill the box from crosses we were lacking in any numbers......onwards, play like that Tuesday please

 

[kelownaseagull]

Brighton support sounded magnificent on the radio

Definately this!

 

[jcdenton08]

I thought we were absolutely terrific today

 

[Bodian]

The more I watch us, the more comfortable I am about us staying up. We seem to fit, and United in no way ran us off the park today. Hope we haven't tired ourselves out before the real football starts on Tuesday.

 

[maltaseagull]

No surprise we lost but a bit galling at the way it happened. Roll on Tuesday

I said yesterday 0-2 defeat would be acceptable but now disappointed with the defeat but still ,having played so well against such a strong side must make the team confident going into Tuesday.

Disgraceful home town decision fr the corner that they fluked the goal from. Poor performance generally from the ref and the lino n that side. Robbed of a well-deserved point. Not only did the twats refuse to put the ball out when Knocky was down but they refused to give it back also.after Stevens put it out.

I don't mind them not putting it out, but not giving it back was absolutely out of order

Proud to be an Albion fan. Superb performance and deserved a point.

Dunk is the first player to have own goals against United and City in the same season.. trying to show his worth to the big clubs. [emoji16]

Mourinho - On BBC just said we were the best side they had played this season

Best performance from an away team a team Old Trafford I think?

Good warm up for the big game on Tuesday, the result flattered Manchester United.

From the BBC website..

Ashley Young's first Premier League goal for 18 months, courtesy of a big deflection, saw Manchester United edge battling Brighton and Hove Albion at Old Trafford.

Brighton had been the better team up until Young's attempt from the edge of the area hit Lewis Dunk before looping over keeper Mat Ryan and into the net.

Played well, gave a brilliant account of ourselves and a couple of poor decisions have gone against us for the goal which had its own Hugh slice of luck.

I'll Grant you that there was one poor decision but apparently it was a corner.

This makes me worried for Tuesday. Tired players after putting in a shift could lead to a disrupted line up as Hughton 'rings the changes'. To us fans, palace is the bigger game, but to Chris and the players probably not, so there's the come down factor. Palace coming to us on the back of a win after several strong performances. Perhaps getting carried away with a decent performance against a post-europe-mid-week man utd... Obviously, I hope I'm wrong, but not feeling hopeful for the palace game.

Well thats pushing it, but we'd more decent chances overall. Some damn good players in our ranks.
