It's a really tough position for Fab.

The squad is exceptional.
Even with 7 or 8 injuries, it's tough keeping everyone happy.
Yep agree, but watching the frantic positioning at corners in those last 10mins was painful. I can’t remember seeing us so unsure of where everyone should be. We last solidity on both flanks, then Gruda went inside when Lamptey came on. Some of them played 2 or 3 positions and were only on 10 mins.

We have kept up the glorious Brighton tradition of getting some brilliant results, resulting in a real chance to make progress up the table with a hugely winnable home match only to f*** it up.
And we've done it more spectacularly than usual!
Yes our progress up the table has been poor. We have stagnated for years with no ambition shown by the club.

Some sort of protest is in order?

Plastic sheets and body guard bookings for footballers have spiked in the Brighton area.

Georginio is a force of nature. In the second half that Wolves guy had half a dozen desperate grabs at his shirt but he just kept ploughing on through with the ball. Fantastic will to win

Georginio and Baleba are a couple of much missed and much needed brick-poo-abodes in the middle of the park.

Nothing against Hinshelwood, WBG, Ayari, Ensico etc... But they don't have the pure muscle and mass to shove off their rivals and batter through to create opportunities. They both were excellent today, again.

We didn’t put them to the sword

Game management was abysmal

We didn’t lose

With all due respect, I can't see any positives from throwing away 2 points from a team at the foot of the table, with only a few minutes remaining.
Oh, I suppose we didn't lose in the end....so, Yay!
Did you only see the last 10 minutes?

Silly old bat
I went to buy beers at 40 minutes, and we left early at 85 minutes.

So as far as I'm, concerned, this was a tight-fought 0-0 tussle.
I saw both goals, and hobbled out to the P&R bus on 85 minutes, so in my mind, we won 2-0. 😉

For me:
Igor looked very good today.
JPHV is back.
Estupinian was back and played very well, particularly first half.
Ayari showed again that he’s a Prem level midfielder.
Baleba being brilliant as always, aside from his one minute of madness following “the note” from the manager that had to’ve read “give em a chance mate”.
Welbeck’s not injured.
Ferguson scored an excellent goal again and looked up to it when he came on.
Lamptey had a good cameo and did well for Ferguson’s goal.
Georgino had the best display I’ve seen from him live - a lot of moments of near quality, but he produced for Welbeck’s goal.

Cons
Weiffer. He was dreadful when he came on and made a catastrophic error to compound the issue.
The manager’s inability to read the second half and make changes to combat Wolves’ half time changes.
Mitoma - I missed the Spurs game where he was apparently brilliant, but for me yesterday was another underwhelming display from him to add to his previous displays this season.

Overall the performance was decent. First half we outplayed them, second half they outplayed us. A draw was a fair result.
