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

[Bodian]

Because we’ve hardly any defenders left facing a team that are all about the counter attack. We’re judiciously keeping the ball to cut down their options. Just part of game management.

Exactly how I saw it. I would have happily taken 0-0 at the beginning of the game, and am happy to take it now.

 

[Albion my Albion]

Get the ball crossed in ffs!

The Albion cross about as much as a former Catholic turned Baptist.

 

[TottonSeagull]

Got to be honest, quite pleased the trains were cancelled and I watched this at home in the end! Dire game but take a point!

 

[Badger]

Clean sheet. Away point. Up a place.

Far from brilliant but definitely good.

Agreed. We did well not give West Ham a sniff of a counter-attack too.

 

[TWOCHOICEStom]

Loved when they tried to target Hinsh with a long ball over the top when Webster went off.

Out-muscled Mubama and cleared. Total class act.

 

[bluenitsuj]

Disappointed we failed to score after dominating the second half. First league clean sheet though and without Dunk.

 

[nwgull]

Let's celebrate the clean sheet, and 4 points from two games where we were could barely get a matchday squad together. Imagine how good we're going to be after a 3 week break and potential new signings and players returning from injury!

 

[GingerBeerMan]

What position are we on MOTD?

It'd be generous to show it at all.

 

[portslade seagull]

Ferguson MIA again. De Zerbi didn't look happy at the end. So many wasted chances

 

[nicko31]

17 attempts was it in the second? 2 pts dropped

 

[jabba]

Only 1 team tried to win it 2nd half. Still, above ManUre in 7th. Not so bad.

 

[dstanman]

Considering all the doom and gloom going into this game, come away with a point and clean sheet and was the far better side

 

[Hugo Rune]

Moder obviously needs a lot of game time to get back to his pre-injury form.

A loan might be the best option for the rest of the season.

 

[macbeth]

to be honest that game doesn’t come into the top 10 of similar games that i’ve seen over the years, particularly under potter. 0-0 vs leeds, norwich, burnley and west brom all spring to mind. will just take the clean sheet with a very depleted squad and move on

 

[Weststander]

Injury-ravaged Albion away from home outclassed confident top 6 contenders. We’re a finisher away from dispatching the rest of the league.

 

[Mackenzie]

Ambitious stuff from West Ham

 

[Si Gull]

Bloody frustrating, that. With all those chances we should have scored at least 2 and WHU didn't have a sniff, at home!

I would have taken 0-0 at half time but have to be disappointed now, after battering them in the second half.

 

[Farehamseagull]

Can’t believe they were playing for a point the last half hour, embarassing. We’ve got to feel good about finishing above them this season.

I hope we do make a couple of experienced, strong signings this window as it could be another special season.

 

[TottonSeagull]

Well done West Ham. A gritty, backs to the wall, defensive performance to grind out a home point.

Yeh, shown absolutely no intent to win at home …. Well done

 

[Fiskmås]

I'm absolutely delighted, thrilled, joyful, blissful, over the moon and ecstatic... not to be a West Ham fan.

Poor, poor things.
