[Albion] Brighton & Hove Albion vs West Bromwich Albion *** Official Match Thread ***

[GT49er]

1-1. Very disappointing.

If there is any debate about 'one point gained' or 'two points lost' coming on, if anybody argues for 'one point gained' they are more twattish than the most deluded Leeds fan ever, or the biggest ever Palarse twunt.

That was two points lost; end of.

Absolutely shocking second half performance. There's always been a little bit of a question mark about Potter, this is why.

WTF did he say at half time? the formation was ****ing wierd toward the end of the game, It was like all the players had an eye patch on. 2 points thrown away. V poor management. we are definitely bottom 4 or 5 on this evenings performance.

 

[BBassic]

Get the sense that had there been fans in the ground a number of them may have booed at full time.

And I wouldn't necessarily think it an over-reaction.

 

[BLOCK F]

I think I shall scream if I hear the usual 'Potter platitudes' after that.
Bedwetter warning: for the first time, I am having doubts about Potter.

 

[Zebedee]

That was an appalling display. No character, no skill, no forward momentum and no heart. What the hell are we paying Potter for? He certainly doesn't seem to be capable of motivating the side. A truly awful night.

Our problem is that all the teams that were near us last season have all improved significantly. They have left us behind. Their strikers strike, ours, well, f**k only knows.

 

[DarrenFreemansPerm]

That second half we were out fought, out run, out played and Potter completely out coached. If he dares say we were unlucky then he’s a fool.

 

[doogie004]

I’m sure the lickers will be along shortly blah blah blah
Two poor teams down the bottom and that’s how it’s going to be all season . Gross so poor it’s embarrassing
And as for our striking options [emoji23]

To be fair the bedwetters after Everton were embarrassing but after that performance? It’s kind of understandable to be honest.

It is mate, absolute shite, Potter out.

 

[Dick Head]

Potter's got to stop holding his Swan Lake rehearsals at half time. It's distracting the players.

 

[TottonSeagull]

Ok... like last season?

Again. where do you think we SHOULD finish?

As I said, with this manager we will be bottom 3. Would have been last year without the COVID break.

 

[Seagull]

The bit I caught at the end we looked desperate with no leadership or fluidity. Missing Dunk? Big contrast to the Palace game. WBA looked the only likely winner.

So disapppinting. 4 points:

1) Game totally changed when Lallana went off. He’s crucial to the way we play now, need to keep him fit;

2) With Welbeck and Connolly on the bench, how on earth did Maupay play the full 90?! Will usually defend him but shocking today, obviously missed another good chance but the biggest problem was that he couldn’t hold the ball up at all;

3) Alazate needs to start and White drop back into defence. Back 3 of White, Webster and Veltman next for me - White and Veltman were our 2 best players other than Lallana when he was on;

4) Waste of time playing Gross these days, not good enough anymore. And Mac Allister should have been on the set pieces the moment he came on.

 

[Jim in the West]

Early days, but looking like 3 from 6 to go down - the current bottom 5, plus Newcastle. Everyone else looks OK so far.

 

[Questions]

Forget shape and tactics. Those players showed a soft underbelly imho.

There’s concern with that.

 

[Albion Dan]

Lallana going off seemed to coincide with a dreadful last 25 mins. Why can't he play a full 90? He's 32 not 42.

That change for Gross totally killed us. Barely kept any possession or built an attack through the middle from that point onward.

 

[Leegull]

That was a very poor performance, absolutely woeful in the second half.
That’ll be the one and only time that I shell out £15 to watch that shower.
Bloody depressing

 

[peterward]

We were bad enough to make me think we could be in real trouble this season, I haven't felt like this since the last few games of CH

Where were the leaders once Lallana went off? Second to everything second half

Pretty depressing fare

There was no shape or leadership, it was rudderless

 

[Zebedee]

I think I shall scream if I hear the usual 'Potter platitudes' after that.
Bedwetter warning: for the first time, I am having doubts about Potter.

And rightly so. He doesn't appear to have a clue.

 

[Washie]

And here’s one of them! I must come out a lot then!

Oh no, we were utter dogshit. I was wondering what happened to make your life so miserable that you feel the need to only visit the forum of the team you purport to support when things are going poorly. Is it an emotional conduit? Or are you that sad that it actually makes you happy
