[Albion] Olympique de Marseille vs Brighton & Hove Albion *** Official Match Thread ***

[chrisg]

Fati totally on his own on penalty spot and Welbeck doesn’t pass , sums it up

 

[Mike Small]

WHY is Welbeck not passing that. Get your head up you donkey.

 

[Seagull58]

We should have scored two so far.

 

[Krafty]

Half-time...

Now who was the commenter that said Marseille haven't won since August?

 

[Bridcutt]

So now steele isn’t a premier league quality goalkeeper? Look at Onana one of the best in the world apparently and he’s let a few in he could probably save, does that mean he’s not premier league quality? Give your heads a wobble, the players infront of him have been diabolical taking the easy option and blaming the keeper is ridiculous.

He has, is and always will be a below PL standard shot stopper. The stats show it, watching him shows it and multiple goals he concedes show it.

 

[KZNSeagull]

Created a few chances at the end there. We need to get at them second half and we can get back in this.

 

[RandyWanger]

Poor at the back, no middle, poor up front. Shit set pieces as per usual.

 

[Zeberdi]

Who's the Mitoma body double? Clearly never played football before.

He’s played more football than most this season so far and maybe that’s the issue - he was looking off the pace against Villa

 

[El Turi]

Last 10 minutes of the half were much better but we keep starting so slowly.

 

[The Colonel]

Imagine picking Danny Welbeck over Evan Ferguson and Joao Pedro. Insanity.

 

[Simster]

Gross has been dreadful. Dahoud not great but better. Gross has been rushed back - doesn’t look fit.

Dahoud was f***ing terrible for 30 minutes but has grown into the game as he's dropping much deeper.

I fancy us to score a couple tonight though. Not sure if that's enough for a result here.

 

[doogie004]

Painful being here watching that

 

[Auckland seagull]

Decent finish to the half. Should have had one back. Maybe, just maybe, starting to settle.

 

[Mackenzie]

Better end to the half, Green shoots.

 

[Sheebo]

Terrible performance again - looking like a shadow of ourselves. Ref a joke for not giving that pen, Welbeck should’ve got his head up, 2 clueless commentators on the box again - it’s a hard half to view.

 

[Sussax]

Passed and we’re going in at HT 2-1, massive in the scheme of things. But last 5 mins looked a lot more positive

 

[indy3050]

Pedro Pedro Pedro. I can see it and I’m blind.

 

[Si Gull]

Shit as we've been, on another day we could be level. Frustrating.

 

[hoveboyslim]

Poor decision making all round. Confidence looks shot

 

[BN41Albion]

We really are in a rut at the moment. Can't take our chances all of a sudden after being so clinical; conceding way more and looking so easy to cut through

So so frustrating
