AFC Bournemouth vs Brighton & Hove Albion *** Official Match Thread ***

[Soulman]

Could be worse i suppose....could have that Richie's hairdresser.

Crofts was poor, as was Conway. Forgot Lopez was on the pitch. For the love of god, do these guys know how to pass a ball?

 

[portslade seagull]

Orlandi on for Lopez who has been dreadful and Bridcutt on for Ince...

Lopez agree with but Ince is the best player on the park at the moment. I'd be more tempted to take JFC off

 

[Husty]

Orlandi on for Lopez, Lita on for Barnes.

 

[The Fifth Column]

One of the worst 45mins from the Albion this season, that was dreadful. Ince is the only player showing anything, Lopez may as well be running the line, they need a rocket up their arses at halftime.

That will help take off our best performer in the 1st half

 

[Lord Bracknell]

Why have we forgotten how to pass the ball since Gus left?

Simple. Bmuff have worked out that the way to play against the Albion is to close us down quickly.

 

[fat old seagull]

6/1 to win .... I've had a medium lump on £34.

Am I insane ? ..... probably.

 

[SULLY COULDNT SHOOT]

Not staying on NSC as my stream is probably about a min behind and dont want to hear it first on NSC

but first half thoughts: reminds too much of the play-off - in total command and exhuding an arrogance that we can finish them off anytime... until we got hit by the sucker punch... spent five mins rocking and then went back to controlling the game without looking like scoring.

A defence made in Brighton is frustrating us and we need a bit more threat and a bit more creativity.

Who are the team playing in yellow?

A bunch of randomly-selected members of the public, who were signed up to play at 4am this morning when staggering out of a Bournemouth night club.

Taking an attacking midfielder off for a more defensive one does not help our situation, we need a goal. Hopefully, a harsh word with the players will get their asses into gear.

 

[Seagull kimchi]

B'muff have done a really good job on us so far. I'm sure Cook and Elf helped Howe with his tactics. Credit where credit is due. But Garcia needs to show his salt now - I think he can.

Very much seems that way.

 

[Vankleek Hill Seagull]

Simple. Bmuff have worked out that the way to play against the Albion is to close us down quickly.

And this is how I see it as well. We're not shit, Eddie Howe has told his team how to play against the Albion and they're doing exactly that. Nothing more, nothing less.

Oh, and Ince is having a bloody good game.

 

[Man of Harveys]

When Howard Jones scores against you no-one is to blame.

 

[Beach Hut]

Utter gash so far we need some serious words of wisdom from Oscar at HT

 

[brightonmark1234]

come on brighton wake up its been crap

 

[Acker79]

If we don't get something out of this game, I can see Palace winning this afternoon and a bunch of binfests dominating the board...

 

[Bakero]

I love Rohan Ince- watching him burst forward with the ball is an impressive sight. Perhaps not today, but I sense a wonder goal will come from this season.
