    [Albion] Brighton & Hove Albion vs Newcastle United *** Official Match Thread ***

    Ayari’s action has cost us. He can’t be there and do that.

    Ayari has cost us twice there. First letting the ball through to Barnes then jumping like that. Really poor. Gomez is a better player.

    That said it was a very good pass to Minteh for the goal. Quickly to feet. Very good.

    Arsenal look absolutely hopeless. They've got nothing going forward. Odegard and Trossard offering nothing. Now they're bringing on Sterling and Zinchenko... Bloody hell.

    [Albion] Premier League 1/5/25

    Like others, would rather Brentford don't win as they could finish the season strongly. I'm just focusing on enjoying Forest toil. Not a fan of their play, Gibbs White or bloody mediocre shithouser Yates.

    [Albion] Premier League 19-23/4/25

    Oh lovely to see Good Ebening look crestfallen. Their diving and protesting has annoyed me these past 10 minutes (and three seasons). Obviously hope it doesn't deflate them for Saturday.

    Find them pretty rank. Falling over, time wasting, the lot. They push Villa close. Maybe it will come down to that in the race for the CL.

    [Albion] Danny Welbeck postgame comments.

    I did not state that the only way to succeed was to be like Fergie. Merely that it has worked for the most successful managers. Granted it's a different era now and him and Pep have a lot more clout than our Fab. I'm not sure that Fab has the gravitas to put people in their place. Welbeck felt...

    [Albion] Yankuba Minteh SINGS on 5 year contract

    Haven't seen that. Was he ruling himself out of starting next weekend as well? If he is able to start he absolutely has to V West Ham. Give them a half each if need be.

    [Albion] What is most responsible for our current poor form?

    If we can't cope with injuries to Webster, Ferdi and Joel Veltman then we're not a top half team at all. If we had all these players available, we'd probably be a few points better off in 8th. That said, we should be doing even better with our squad, challenging the top 6 this year. We're not...

    [Albion] Yankuba Minteh SINGS on 5 year contract

    Good outlet and great pace. Good signs this season. Dreadful attitude at the moment. I found him shaking his head after being subbed recently as absolutely rank. The sheer arrogance, individualism and lack of awareness. His complete lack of a right foot and the coaching team complete failure...

    Nope merely saying that calling out individuals worked for the most successful managers possibly ever. By your logic, I should only be comparing Hurzelar with other 32 year old managers who have managed roughly two seasons, one in the German 2nd division and one in the Premier League...

    [Albion] Warren Aspinall

    I think Warren was absolutely spot on for his criticsim of Minteh. He is behaving like a mardi little so and so and isn't working for the team. Same with Pedro and I really appreciate him noting when Baleba didn't cover him team mates. These three players have appalling attitudes at times. Not...

    Also the from the Sir Alex Ferguson school of man management. Even Pep Guardiola's to a large degree. Hurzelars platitudes are uninspiring at best.
