"You kick on by accepting you are Brighton, playing a second season in the Premier league. There will be ups and downs. We were playing a team who will push for the top six. You always have to look as a whole. We have had three really good results and then a bad result. We have to accept that and be better next time. Come out fighting in the next game."

Sensible and balanced perspective from Hughton.

Exactly. Didn’t embarrass ourselves and attacked a bit. Not bothered here

Similar performance as against Wolves and Newcastle, but Everton had more quality up front. Simple really. Not going to look for a scapegoat, several (most if not all) players had below-par games and tactically we were lacking in any ideas to get forward. Playing well below our best at the moment, wonder for how much longer...............

Until Propper returns, perhaps. I love Beram Kayal but it may be that Propper’s importance is shown by his absence. Keeping the ball is definitely not one of our strengths when he doesn’t play. If only he could learn to mark his men at corners.

On a wing, jogging, the other side of the line with a track suit top on!

Maybe harsh, but what happened to the crosses, and shots? More the point, do we really not have anything better? That's more of a concern!

I don't think he has looked bad on the wing, just not great behind Murray.

Propper isn’t the answer - constantly loses possession- keep Kayal in

Completely agree with this! Since he has been injured he as become the messiah! People forget how bad he was before he was injured. Flatters to deceive and adds no attacking threat at all!

No more than Kayal and doesnt give away as many free kicks in dangerous positions just outside of the box. Kayal is perhaps an adequate stand in but no more than that.

I am finding it harder to accept the possible shortcomings of March, Ali J and Izzy.

Positive impact, especially regarding the latter duo, will hopefully come in time.

One of the above appears to find 'trapping a bag of cement in a phone box' difficult.

I think that everybody does but then post in desperation for wanting us to do better.

@BG jumping on slightly below par Kayal performance to justify previous ‘championship at best’ opinion shocker

Maybe looked at the £££££s spent on say, Locadia, Izzy and Ali G then asking whether £50mill has so far been wisely spent.

It was only a matter of time for me to wait as I guessed he would return to norm at some point.

Agreed. Trying to find a MOTM would be difficult.

Oh do **** off. One game below par out of 4 starts, when the whole team was basically crap.

Much better than Newcastle imo and Everton were very good.

We were playing a team who have consistently come top 10 in the league and cost a shit load AWAY. This is what the prem lg is like unfortunately.
