[Albion] Nottingham Forest vs Brighton & Hove Albion *** Official Match Thread ***

[Driver8]

Gomez must be wondering why on earth he joined Brighton.

 

[zefarelly]

Jao pedro is just strolling about in midfield. Waste of a shirt

We are so static when attacking, same as last week

 

[BBassic]

A question … is it trickier being a head coach at a club where the January transfer window is abound with player exit moves, offers, talk?

Yeah probs is, almost certainly at a club like ours where players are coveted

 

[Brian Munich]

I'm Genuinely going into every weekend expecting us to get outfought, outplayed and destroyed.

It's sad man.

Did you go into last weekend expecting that after having won our previous 3 and drawn against Villa and arsenal before that?

 

[BadFish]

Still at least we are keeping our heads on here

 

[South Stand Bonfire]

Did Wood celebrate? I forgot to look

Yes. He left long ago and is entitled to celebrate.

 

[Steviewonder]

I think the score really flatters Forest. If we could get one back before ht, game on

 

[Uncle Spielberg]

1 in midfield against 4 great plan fab

 

[banjo]

I don’t think we have the personnel to set up like that effectively, certainly not with our current injuries.

You’re probably right.

 

[mothy]

Nobody could have predicted this when they saw our midfield line up

 

[trueblue]

But who do we play there, our recruitment team only care about attackers. Bloom only cares about attacking play.

We're unlucky with injuries at left-back. We have Estupinan, Kadioglu and cover from Hinshelwood and Lamptey. There's not too much wrong with the squad. There's a lot wrong with the lack of a workable plan or organisation. In my view, it's mainly because we have so many good individual talents that we've picked up some decent results - we've rarely put a good move together.

How do central midfielders like O'Riley and Gomez feel when they can't get a game in this sickness crisis with a forward playing instead? How have we managed to ostracise a talent like Enciso so quickly with Ferguson potentially going the same way? What happened to the same players that were so confident and calm playing out from the back under Potter and De Zerbi but now play kick and rush?

 

[Quebec Seagull]

I want to see whether Fab can get anything from our lads at half time, and they can respond.

All he needs to do is tell them he's resigning.

.

 

[AlbionBro]

I think...I think I might be Fab out.

I think.

Be decisive please.

 

[Terry Butcher Tribute Act]

Not completely sold on the manager, but the defence have shafted him today. Absolutely pathetic from the lot of them.

 

[Hendrax]

our attacking tempo must be the slowest in world football. Every bloody team has 11 behind the ball before we've even made it near the final 3rd. what the f*** is going on.

 

[willalbion]

We move the ball too slowly, our attacking patterns are predictable, we don’t protect our defence. Apart from that…

 

[BBassic]

Be decisive please.

I will.

Maybe.

 

[Uncle Spielberg]

I hope you are still trusting the process US.

Er no, lol. Fact is we lost a world class manager for a boy

 

[South Stand Bonfire]

Albion are the most pathetic team in all of football.

If you don’t mind me saying, I think that is a tad overreaction.

 

[US Seagull]

I wasn't too optimistic about back-to-back games against Chelsea before this. Now I'm dreading it.

And then Southampton, where you know we'll gift them at least a point.
