[Albion] Brighton & Hove Albion vs Leicester City *** Official Match Thread ***

[Freddo]

We’ve conceded 3 goals this season to this Leicester side they are atrocious

 

[portlock seagull]

Thought Adingra played well, one of our better players

That depends. He’s paid not just to create chances but finish them, and he’s messed up all of them so far. Not good enough, but at least he’s predictable.

 

[Weststander]

Exactly.
Powderpuff team when our couple of leaders are injured. Fine when it's going well but when it's not we might just be worst in the league

Should be the clearest Albion transfer window to fix, ever.

RB, LB, CB & DM.

Please no more wingers, no10’s or goalies.

 

[Coldeanseagull]

If Ayari doesn't break his duck against this lot, I'll eat my dinner!

 

[Washie]

He's done that a few times, which makes me think he's protecting an injury (ribs?) and not fully committing.

Then get that captaincy off of him, as his decision to play injured is actually harming the team.

 

[Mackenzie]

O’Riley’s best game for us ironically, everyone else either poor or average

Shame he missed that sitter and hit a post, could easily have had two today. Perhaps it's just rust where he's hardly played. Promising signs though.

 

[Seasider78]

Not enough urgency or intensity feels a bit like we are strolling around expecting an easy win rather than hunting down the win.

Let’s hope but if a rocket at half time to up the pace and press

 

[portlock seagull]

This season - of so much promise - is petering out to a frustrating anti climax. Poor finishing and schoolboy errors at the back are a depressing combination.

Like last season then?

 

[Paulie Gualtieri]

Missed their goal as was robbed for a £3.95 bag of sweets

How bad was it?

 

[Zeberdi]

It's like we are trying to run up the xG, instead of the scoreline.

Ridiculous isn’t it?

We had at least 5 clear chances squandered because of poor decision-making and lack of communication and inaccurate shooting.

We look really leaky in defence and rattled in midfield.

Under par from all over the pitch and held to a draw at HT against relegation side that hasn’t scored a League goal since JANUARY!

 

[oldboyroy]

Leicester are bad. Really bad. Look like a Championship side, which they surely will be.

As usual, we're not playing badly - we're dominating in the middle of the park and creating chances.

...but our finishing has been ABYSMAL... and that's the main reason we're not destroying these.

They were lucky with their goal. Mistake by Dunk, shit happens, and Verbruggen should have done better.

Failing to win this fixture would be unacceptable, given how bad this Leicester side are - even with our depleted squad.

Need to start finishing off these chances in the second half.

This with nails on

How bad was it?

Being robbed was not as bad.

How bad was it?

It could have been a £5.00 bag I suppose.

 

[pay no mind]

Guys, guys, in the first half we were not a team of togetherness. In the second half, guys, we must be a team of togetherness. This is the process and we must trust it. Guys.

 

[METALMICKY]

Estupinan isn't going to make 90 minutes he's been wound up for about 20 minutes shouting at our players

Ridiculous booking. Thank God if kept his hands low when kicking off

 

[nsclurker]

Except…twas all so predictable.

The only surprise was they didn't score first.

 

[aolstudios]

He's done that a few times, which makes me think he's protecting an injury (ribs?) and not fully committing.

This. He's obviously not fit

 

[Dick Head]

Time for Hürzeler to earn his salt.

 

[Luke93]

Have to say, that’s a shocking error by Dunk.

 

[Alex BH]

Leicester are like a League Two team. So open at the back. Worst result of the season if we can’t win this!
