[Albion] Matt O Riley [26/08/24 - sings on a 5-year deal]

[Zeberdi]

“I can see where my role might be in the team so that when I come back into the team I will be prepared. Those are the positives.”

He was.

Have to say, I think our German led medical team are doing impressive stuff this season getting him back to goal scoring fitness after surgery so soon.

Well done Matt. So pleased to see you back and having such an impact. Well played that man!

And Pedro!

God we've had this start despite one of our best players (Pedro) being injured and O'Riley not playing until today.

What a team.

Hope the Crawley fans enjoyed it with their 20 million down the drain song!

Blimey O’Riley

 

[Cheeky Monkey]

O Riley and Baleba are the new Mac Allister and Caicedo. Brilliant today.

"Teenage wasteland, it's only teenage wasteland."

 

[Zeberdi]

Great assist by Pedro after Baleba sends the perfect vertical pass from MF

 

[billhems]

Has he got a chant? Running round Preston Park today Life of Riley came on my playlist and it seemed like a sign. Anybody more lyrical than me turn the chorus into something ending with Super Matt O'Riley?

 

[kevo]

Wonder how many more points we'd have this season if that Crawley thug hadn't done him.

 

[Dave the hatosaurus]

It's roy of the rovers stuff. Player assaulted and injured on his debut returns against the champions and scores the winning goal!
Just imagine how he must be feeling, wonder if he had that in his dreams last night? . I was so pleased for him, bet he will not get much sleep tonight after that huge high.

Admittedly, I had a few beers….
But that goal made me want to shout out:

‘Who needs Pascal Groß!’

And he has a couple of weeks thinking about it before we play again. Absolutely buzzing for him. With him and Pedro back and hopefully Baleba getting fit. We have the poetical to be genuinely brilliant.

Blimey…..having watched a couple of post match interviews I am completely blown away as to what a nice guy he is.A brilliant talent and a great guy,dare I say an archetypal Brighton signing

I think the whole stadium was pleased for him!

Steady on.

Whilst he was at Celtic he volunteered his time to visit sick children in hospital and play video games with them, sharing some joy with them.

A truly nice person and we're lucky to have him.

The main thing in all this is how quickly he recovered from a very nasty injury (shocking foul from a thug), surgery, rehab, Premier League debut and goal. All in the space of a few months.

Says to me a lot about his character. We might have another real winner here.

 

[Seagull27]

It's very silly to read too much into less than a half of football... But I'll do it anyway:

Apart from the goal, he looked more than comfortable at this level and already fit in well with the system and his team mates. Very impressive and I'm quite excited to see more of him
