[Albion] Brighton & Hove Albion vs Arsenal *** Official Match Thread ***

[Hendrax]

Much better than the Brentford game so far. both teams have had their chances. we got this.

 

[Swegulls]

We almost always look better when we’re not having a 70-30 possession. Looking good so far.

 

[Hendrax]

Ref has been pretty poor so far.

 

[WhingForPresident]

This ref is a f***ing idiot. Quelle surprise.

 

[BBassic]

Ref has been pretty poor so far.

Quite how he decided both players colliding is an Arsenal free kick is beyond me

 

[KZNSeagull]

Ref's an awayer

 

[Hendrax]

every set piece they have, we get nowhere near the ball. that is a bit worrying. someone bloody attack it, hate zonal marking.

Ref's an awayer

Thats a funny way to spell cu*t.

 

[fruitnveg]

our counterattacking has been a lot better so far, today. Just the final ball, but at least we're getting final balls.

 

[papachris]

Arsenal players seem to have lots of space and time in possession but Arsenal defenders a lot closer on our players when we have possession

 

[Sarisbury Seagull]

What a pass by Van Hecke for that almost Lamptey chance!

 

[Zeberdi]

Adingra yet again making a poor decision and squandering a great break - he needs to find Danny in the 18 yard area and not keep shooting these Hail Marys. Pleased with Baleba so far - he’s beginning to give our MF some gravitas.

 

[Seagull58]

Brooks is clearly an Arsenal fan boy. We'll get nothing from the ref all day.

 

[AlexBH]

Ref is so bad it’s unreal

 

[WhingForPresident]

f*** me, any little thing is an Arsenal free kick. **** of a ref.

 

[Bridcutt]

Ref is giving every 50/50 to them again

 

[Hendrax]

how on earth is that a free kick. saka got his pocket picked. awful refereeing.

 

[fruitnveg]

If Tariq is off, thats a huge shame. I'll admit I haven't been very impressed with him since his return, but he has been involved in everything good going forward that we've done today

 

[Bodian]

Ref is giving every 50/50 to them again

And the 75/25 (BHA/Arse)

 

[WhingForPresident]

Is it that the ref is bent or just that he doesn't want that whining twat Arteta shouting at him? It's obviously one of the two.
