Bart 7 -- one amazing late save from Salah, wasn't very good for their disallowed goal, gave the ball away a few times too many but Liverpool's intensity imposed that on us Veltman 5 -- made to look rather ordinary JPvH 8 -- some good stuff both defensively and on the ball Dunk 7 -- solid stuff...

Here's hoping 2024 works better than 2023 for the wonderful talent, commitment and hard work of our restauranters. Will get things going with two recent visits: Fourth & Church Went for lunch on Friday. It's outrageous value. 2 courses for £20, 3 courses for £24. They'll be doing this offer...

What an absolutely bonkers game of football. Utterly thrilling. Some stunning performances in there from a fair few players. Shame about the loss of control at the end. Ditto with Dunk's booking, meaning RDZ is going to have to weave some different magic against in-form West Ham, especially as...

---------------- Steele ----------------- Hinshelwood -- JPvH -- Dunk -- Igor ---------- Gross --- WBG ------------- Joao Pedro -- Buonanotte -- Adingra -------------- Welbeck ---------------- Subject to RDZ pre-match press conference, which will presumably take place tomorrow. Mitoma almost...

Obviously getting in early, and the pre-match press conference might throw a spanner into the following suggestion, but I'd like to see something like the following for Thursday: -------------------------- Bart ----------------------- Veltman ----- Dunk -------- Igor ----- Hinshelwood...

While RDZ likes to talk of three games in a week, we actually have such a scenario approaching. Anyway it's our next four fixtures that I'm flagging up because they're bunched together: Thu 30 Athens (a) Sun 3 Chelsea (a) Wed 6 Brentford (h) Sat 9 Burnley (h) We've got a load of injuries and...

Bart 7 -- very good, not much chance to shine with his feet Veltman 8 -- somewhat under the radar tonight. Very assured JPvH 9 MotM -- utterly brilliant. Showed Amsterdam who the best Dutch CB is Dunk 7 -- hope he's back after the break Dahoud 7 -- kept it ticking, excellent ball to break the...

Steele 8 -- brilliant on the ball Veltman 8 -- cunning Van Hecke 8.5 -- another great performance Dunk 8 Lamptey 8.5 -- two assists and, in one performance, might have persuaded a few doubters that we've got sufficient cover on each side of defence. His searing pace seems to be easing back too...

Steele 7 -- distribution top as ever Milner 7.5 -- what a pro; what a signing Van Hecke 7 -- composed Dunk 6 -- a few mistakes in there Estupinan 8 -- started slowly, but devastating thereafter. Caused mayhem. Another assist. Dahoud 7 -- silky Gross 8 MotM -- what a player March 5 -- goal aside...

This won't be the most popular thread, but PB kept going pretty much until the bitter end. If you'd seen him live, which I've had the pleasure of (I think) doing four times, you'd know about it. Ear-splitting genius.

All of a sudden, I'm feeling ever so BUBBLY. And you?

Went to see LKJ at the Theatre Royal, so watched on an hour's delay on the telly box. The day has been alright. Steele 9 MotM -- probably our best passer today, the odd good save too :lol: Caicedo 9 -- play him in goal and he might be better than Steele Dunk 9 -- bossed it Colwill 9 -- had a...

Steele 7.5 -- not much to do, but still pulled off a great save in the first half, and his distribution is up there with the very best of PL gks Veltman 7 -- doesn't look good for his hamstring Webster 8.5 -- imperious, the shirt is his for the moment Dunk 8.5 -- simply brilliant on the ball...

Two stunners from RdZ's Chelsea conferences, one pre-, one post-. Got to be worth a thread. Pre-: 'foxy people' Post-: 'and balls' (again) https://www.brightonandhovealbion.com/my-albion-tv/videos/3149747/de-zerbis-chelsea-press-conference/...

In an attempt to combine NSC's collective experience and insight, we've got a week booked in mid-Scotland (between Loch Lomond and Dunblane, nearest biggish town is Stirling to the south-east), and are looking to spend another week or so in Scotland. Ideally on west coast or an island (Skye...

Steele 5.5 -- extra point for the assist which was something else (as was the celebration). I'm convinced Sanchez or Raya would have saved at least one of the three. Their xG was about 1.5 Veltman 5.5 -- wise as ever, but not great today Dunk 5 -- poor for the second, should have got his header...

Steele 7.5 -- top saves, top camaraderie, top distribution save for one heart-inducing moment at the end, for which he lost half a point Veltman 8 -- played on the edge, and wisely tamed SEGW Dunk 7 Colwill 7 Estupinan 7 Caicedo 9.5 MotM -- utterly immense, best player we'll ever see at the club...

----------------- Sanchez ------------------ Veltman -- Webster -- Dunk -- Estupinan --------- Contracto -- Ali Mac ------------ March ---------- Gross ---------- Mitoma ---------------- Ferguson ----------------- Subs: Steele, Lamptey, Van Hecke, Gilmour, Sarmiento, Enciso, Buonanotte, Welbeck...

We did it. Steele 7.5 -- great distribution, very calm, one solid early save and made the rest look comfortable Gross 7 -- did his job Van Hecke 8 MotM -- some great tackles, interceptions, recoveries. Good on the ball too. Dunk 7.5 -- some great stuff but, unusually, a lot of sloppy passing...
