Newcastle United Vs Brighton & Hove Albion ***Official Match Thread***

[maltaseagull]

CH needs to have a word with Duffy to tell him stop lumping it forward everytime he gets it. He's not a Blackburn now.

TBF he only signed yesterday and has no idea who does what in the squad.

How skalak gets away with this falling over rubbish is ridiculous just like last week lol

He is embarrasing! Also I hate Newcastle but this is a tough/strong league and I think Brighton probably need 1 or 2 stronger players or Barton type players which would complete the team, I really think thats what was missing last season and the edge Burnley had

Poor service again

Limited effort though. It's no good making a back for the defender, he needs to stand up for the team.

Totally agree. Can't beat a man, slows down an attack and doesn't score many. Murphy is a much better option.

We'll if Hughton doesn't address this at half time then we're going to be bent over and cained.

Baldock sidwell off Stephens hemed on please
Shit half

 

[One Teddy Maybank]

Stalk is having a poor game today, but that criticism is way over the top.

This. Completely disproportionate

1-0 HT could of been worse.

 

[Icy Gull]

Outplayed for 10 mins after their goal and now working our way back into the game. CH needs to tell Duffy to stop hoofing the ball though.

 

[sir albion]

Need some changes as we're really struggling to create good opportunities...Stephens and Murphy must start the second half

 

[whitelion]

Give them an absolute blocking at HT and get Stephens on for Sidwell.

This isn't American Football.

Cracking scoreline considering the play! Off out now your on your kids!

I've never "got" Skalak since he got here. Looks below standard on ability to beat a player or even retain possession. We've got Knocky for the set pieces

 

[Seasider78]

I would take off Baldock and sidwell and replace with Stephens and Lua Lua, move Skalak centrally as the 10 in a five man midfield

 

[Mackenzie]

Difficult half for the lads, they looked a pace behind Newcastle in speed and thought. I'm sure Hughton will sort them out at half time, he usually does. Plenty on the bench if we need a change.

 

[Hyperion]

Murphy needs to replace Skalak and Norwood for Sidwell. We need more creativity. Why we always seem to float crosses and corners in at what seems like 5mph kills me. We need to whip them in with a lot more pace.

 

[goldstone]

Very poor first half apart from the first 5 mins and the last 10. Could well have been two or three down. Need Stephens on for Sidwell. Bong nowhere near last season's standards. Shame.

 

[Ernest]

We're getting outmuscled and out fought, Hughton needs to have a go as too many of ours haven't turned up yet

 

[giveusfalmerplease]

Well regardless of the result how hopefully CH and the board will realise WE MUST NOT SELL STEPHENS

I think he does posses some quality but its the falling over that I dont really get, he is lucky not to get so many more yellows. He could and possibly should be changed with a strong player as he easily falls over then does not fight to win the ball back
