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

[Hendrax]

come JP. its getting a bit much now

 

[RandyWanger]

7 seconds before the pen we had ball left wing on attack at pace. Then slow it, stop it and send ball back into own half.
Just why

f*** knows why we do this. Shitty tactic

 

[The Fits]

Entertaining. Very sloppy at times but lots to build on. Baleba doing the work of three men. Minteh very encouraging

 

[birthofanorange]

Looks like we've given up

No it doesn't.

 

[Coldeanseagull]

Absolute joke, why the f*** do we make so many stupid mistakes constantly.

Because he keeps putting the dopey dutchman in goal!
He can stop shots, but he's a bit slow of thought

 

[bluenitsuj]

Apart from the goal we have been poor. Creating little and giving the ball away easily.

Rutter on for Pedro

 

[aolstudios]

According to the PL stats site Ryan has saved two, Sanchez and Jason Steele one each.

Jason made a few on the cups too, didn't he?

Peter Banks is like a child Man Utd fan who’s won a comp to ref a game.

Good call . . .

quite scrappy overall . . .hopefyully thats our bad half or wier Lewes

 

[Krafty]

If it wasn’t for our calamity at the back, we would be winning this match. The amount of times I’ve said this throughout the season is ridiculous.

 

[El Turi]

Who is the summariser? He is ridiculously biased.

 

[Dave the OAP]

Just be thankful we are not spurs fans!

 

[US Seagull]

I sometimes wonder if Fab doesn't overthink things. We hit United early with that ball over the top. Fab thinks "no way they'll fall for that again". So we... don't do it again.

Sometimes teams really are that stupid. They will fall in the same trap multiple times.

 

[el_ciddy]

Come on Brighton! Some promising signs, one or two players need to fix a couple of mistakes and focus a bit more but we got this!

 

[Mustafa II]

Decent enough first half. Both sides making a lot of silly errors that could lead to goals.

We started off really brightly and overall have looked the better team.

Was a great first goal and a definite penalty for them, following a defensive error.

Very open game. Could go either way. We probably need Georginio on as he could be the difference again.

 

[giveusfalmerplease]

Steele needs a chance in the PL. He hasn't put a foot wrong in the matches he's played and his distribution is way better than Barts.

 

[Han Solo]

They're spreading their cheeks for us. Want to be f***ed to oblivion. Hope and think we will go out in the second half and dominate this lot because it can certainly be done.

 

[Auckland seagull]

I think I say it every time we play Utd, but Fernandes is the most unlikeable player ive ever seen.

Agreed. He also has ridiculously huge ears.

 

[Mike Small]

Pleasantly surprised by Minteh’s defensive work so far.

If FH has coached this he needs to coach Baleba to stop doing showboating kick ups in the centre circle and more importantly, stop giving away penalties.

 

[Hugo Rune]

If it wasn’t for our calamity at the back, we would be winning this match. The amount of times I’ve said this throughout the season is ridiculous.

The commentators spoke about 9 goals given away by mistakes this season and that we are 10 points below where we should be because of these issues.

It so ****ing frustrating!!! Half of the teams we play get a gifted goal in a league where scoring is so hard.

This has got to stop or else Palace will finish above us.
