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

[Southern Scouse]

Liverpool reserves ahead at half time

That’s unfair, that’s a decent team we have out there your doing Brighton a disservice

 

[jcdenton08]

It was a clear free-kick. I think that was a cross, his face said it all afterwards. But regardless, our defending was dismal there, I was screaming at the screen to have two men out there. Awful set up and you’ll be punished against good players (lucky or otherwise) defending that badly

 

[Sussexscots]

One minute to go and they switch off and start dreaming about their dinner. Pish

 

[peterward]

FFS. What a daft goal to concede.

Bart should be stopping that imho. It wasn't a worldie or so top bins he couldn't get it.

It caught him by surprise.

Wouldn’t matter if our keeper was even half competent

 

[Weststander]

Tsimikas & Estupinan’s wings are the weak spots for both teams. On the other wing Wieffer’s been excellent for the last 35 minutes.

What happened with that goal? No replay in the ground. Just looked like a floated cross and Bart flapping?

Also, someone needs to intervene with Pervis and get him off the crack pipe.

 

[peterward]

Bart Verbruggen is the reason we’re not top 6. Piss poor keeper. If it’s true anyone actually wants him just get rid

That's a bit OTT and he's very young, that said if we could get top money for him, he's one of the players I wouldn't get so upset at losing.

 

[Berty23]

Can’t see us keeping hold of Baleba in the summer. He’s far too good. On another level to the rest of our players.

He just looked ridiculously good. If he plays for Liverpool, Arsenal or city he looks like a premier league great. He is going to be incredible.

he shanked a cross.

 

[Ethelwulf]

Agreed. Missed everyone.

Shit keeping yet again this season

 

[A1X]

Just watching the replay, Bart definitely should have done better there

 

[BevBHA]

There is literally nothing he’s good at. Shot stopping, distribution, commanding his box. All below average.

 

[Steve in Japan]

Boring blaming the ref free kick all day long

Not for me. Very soft.

 

[Seasider78]

Poor game management has killed us this season the players simply have to see that out at 1-1 and now gone in losing with risk another goal kills us off. Lack of leaders on the pitch in these situations

Directly behind it. Looked like a mishit cross.

It was struck a lot harder than that, but it was an intended cross. Just took Bart by surprise.

 

[Zeus]

I just can’t believe Carl Rushworth isn’t better than Bart. The only thing he’s good at is saving shots with his legs, disappointing.

Price you pay with young players. Game management improves with age.

If it was a miss hit cross, then of course it caught him by surprise

WTF was "clear" about that free kick? He just ran into Pervis and fell over. Very typical of this ref.
