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

[DJ NOBO]

Tony bloom is a ruthless winner and recruited FH to win.
He won’t be saying to him “considering you’re young , Fab, you’re doing really well. And in a couple of years you’ll be even better”.
He will just sack him if FH shows he isn’t up to it

 

[BNthree]

Barely a squad left tbf

Injuries aside the players we had on the pitch should be able to beat that Leicester side.

 

[Mr deez]

Bossed the first half and should have been home and dry.

Under pressure for what, 10 mins?

Yes it's annoying but we weren't that poor.

 

[Herr Tubthumper]

That game should have been sewn up by half time. Disgraceful finishing.

It was the defence which let us down imho. Whatever we think of the attack, they got two goals. They shouldn’t have to score three to compensate for our defense. The forwards, in one sense, did their job.

 

[Hometownglory]

Did anything kick off at full time?
Someone on the bus said it got a bit heated

If you mean boos, then yes, plenty.

Kin ell, did you not see he chances they fluffed in first half.

 

[J2 DOG]

Corners, free kicks, crossing, shooting all Sunday league level.Is any of this addressed in training? Been shit for a while now?? 2 good penalties though.

 

[jcdenton08]

Where are all the LICKERS tonight?

We’re here. Where are all the BEDWETTERS when we win?

 

[Jam The Man]

Yeah I heard that. But of handbags apparently - I was on the concourse so didn’t see

Usually think you’re a sane poster but the fact we couldn’t score from open play against that dire Leicester squad is not the defence’s fault.

 

[Herr Tubthumper]

Kin ell, did you not see he chances they fluffed in first half.

Obviously I did. But at the end of the day/game they’d still scored two. It was woeful and frustrating upfront but they still got two goals, my issue is at the other end.

 

[Herr Tubthumper]

Equally conceding two goals from a team which had not scored since god knows when is very much the defense’s fault.

I know we were shite up front, but we did score two goals. That should have been enough.

PS I’ll take the back handed compliment

Also true

 

[Uh_huh_him]

Verbruggen was at his hilarious best in the last 10 minutes.

Every decision he made was bad.

I've calmed down now, but I apologise to everyone around me for those last 15minutes.
That kind of language is unacceptable

We really were

 

[Uh_huh_him]

We were handed 2 penalties.
Both of which relied on subjective decisions.

So then

Mini breaks all round before we take on Brentford?

 

[BBassic]

We looked like work experience for an inexperienced manager.

Like the Leicester scorers …

Every decision is subjective to some extent. Competence is what matters. Seen them both back now, both clear penalties.
