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

[TottonSeagull]

Just imagine if we could defend!! We come away with at least a point!!

Bad day at the office..

 

[nicko31]

Just gifted it to Everton today with woeful defending, they really aren't that good.

Liverpool will murder these, blowing smoke up their arse but this score is totally down to us.

Nonsense. For 75 mins they have been class.

 

[BadFish]

Oh Maupay....

I read that to the tune of Oh Yoko by John Lennon.

 

[hart's shirt]

Great strike, but the only bright spot on a very gloomy afternoon for the Albion.

The good news is that it shouldn't paper over the obvious defensive cracks.

We've got to sort the set pieces out at both ends immediately.

 

[Hugo Rune]

no extra time for hooper

Wasn’t like there had been a break in play like a goal or anything?

 

[peterward]

Exactly.

As much as we all given plaudits to Potter he has to take criticism today for this. Set piece tactics and overall style wrong for this game.

Totally agree. Won't entertain any idiocy calling for him to go, but this is Potters team and system and the deficiencies in it outweigh any positives.

You can still get points if you're not scoring, you can't if you cannot defend or gift goals.

 

[sydney]

5 mins additional time for Bissouma's goal?

not today sausage ...

 

[dstanman]

At least we have the international break to enable us to refocus before the Palace game

 

[Deadly Danson]

No. I don't want it to get worse but there's no way we'll be lucky enough to stay up this time.

Oh get a grip.

 

[Hugo Rune]

Makes you wonder why we don't shoot more. Raffle, ticket etc.

With Pickford flapping and spilling left, right and centre, you’d have thought so.

yes ah , no , ah i don't know .....you gotta laugh haven't ya for FAAAAAARRRRK sake ....

 

[willalbion]

I’m still very much team Potter. But... sort out the set pieces please.

 

[Perfidious Albion]

Biss makes the score a little more respectable..... at least we have had this debacle early enough in the season to put things right.
This is a setback, not a disaster

 

[*Gullsworth*]

Bad day but we still had 10 shots good possession, we just have to get our defence sorted. Their side does include world class players, ours doesn't, that i am afraid is the difference.

 

[A1X]

Yes they're a good team. Doesn't excuse giving them a win gift wrapped like that. Man Utd are a good team, didn't do it to them.

 

[BadFish]

Palace and West Brom next?

These games might give us a better idea of where we are at.

We tried playing well against United and lost, then tried something different and played badly, still lost.

It's a funny old game.

 

[RandyWanger]

That was so frustrating today. Pickford is a dodgy keeper yet we rarely tested him. Free kicks and corners going back to Ryan. WTF Someone needs a rocket up them after the gameplay today.

 

[DJ NOBO]

Ryan is like a subbuteo keeper at crosses. Scrambling Back and forth along his line.
