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

[Brian Fantana]

Webster being fit is a bonus. At least something resembling a back four.

 

[dstanman]

All things considered not a bad line-up. Should still be able to get the 3 points

 

[Stat Brother]

A 'Chelsea come and get me now' team selection, if ever I've seen one.

We'll be lucky to get out of there Brighton 0.

 

[Coxovi]

Great timing for Webster to be back, defense looks solid enough and looking forward to watch JP and Welbs again.

Or ruin the evening of the people around you with your selfishness by being unable to look at a screen for 80 minutes. I work in theatre and visit regularly for fun, and theatre etiquette is at an all-time low post-COVID.

Edit: I mean “your” in a general sense, not you personally.

I absolutely won't be listening or watching, or even checking the phone, during the show. There's a story that The Times ran today about actor Andrew Scott halting a production of Hamlet as some bozo opened his laptop in the midst of the "To be or not to be" soliloquy to deal with his emails!! The mind boggles.

It was an attempt at humour

You're meant to say whoosh to those types of replies!

 

[Mackenzie]

Samuels on the bench, good he's a left back, perhaps he can get a few minutes when we're three up.

 

[Official Old Man]

Where is everybody. 50 mins till KO and the place is empty. Just a handful in what is normally a packed concourse.
Plenty of Amstel for everybody and no queuing. Ah, maybe that's the problem.

 

[jimhigham]

If Estipiñan and Milner pick up where they left off last time out, we’ll be in for some fun.

 

[The Wookiee]

Massive hoolie in London town atm but it's gonna calm down in the next few hours apparently.

I’m here at the Amex and it’s absolutely dead. Record low attendance? They haven’t even turned the lights on!

 

[albionfan37]

Better lineup than I was expecting, they look totally paceless other than Bowen
I think we have more firepower than them and think we’ll win

 

[7dialssouthpaw]

Belated Christmas tree formation!

Six, at the Theatre Royal. It's some sort of a musical thingie about Henry VIII's wives... not sure it's necessarily going to be my sort of thing but it's only 80 minutes with no intermission, so will be done at a reasonable time (around 9:20pm) so might even be home to catch the dying moments of the match (if it's not a nightmare, that is...)

Saw it in Bath and although not my sort of thing I did enjoy it a lot

 

[Mike Small]

Looking forward to seeing Welbeck and JP tonight!

 

[WATFORD zero]

I thought Webster and Goodnight were both out, so let's hope they both hold up.

Although we've still got Baleba, Mahoud, Lallana, Moder and Ferguson on the bench to mix things up

 

[Dick Head]

Say goodbye to Adam Webster and James Milner's hamstrings.
