    [Albion] Is FH really performing that badly?

    This in some ways shouldn't be a surprise, Wieffer is an excellent player who because of various injuries and one mistake against Wolves that still required a suicidal run by Perv, an excellent counterattack and a deflection to result in a goal against, has been underplayed by Hurzeler and...

    [Albion] To Avoid Hürzeler Bashing - The Staying Up and Europe Tracker - season 2024-25 Game 38 Update

    If Villa and Newcastle don't finish top 6 though, it's a lot more likely that we are

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

    Only seen 20 minutes here but hard to disagree that he is way off it. Gone backwards

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

    Perv has been very poor defensively, Igor keeps bailing him out

    [Albion] Just how good is Hürzeler?

    That's still well above average though, and him and Alisson are the only two keepers who are near the top of both shots saved above average and the sweeping category. Add in the distribution and he is an elite keeper in the PL at 22. Hopefully he continues to go under the radar

    [Albion] Just how good is Hürzeler?

    We're currently overperforming mainly in conceding four fewer goals than expected (our goals scored output is very close to expected). However, only half of this is down to luck (worse than average finishing from the opposition), the other half is down to above average goalkeeping by Verbruggen...

    [Albion] Team for Southampton

    Think Wieffer should definitely start this one with any one of Ayari, Hinshelwood or MOR and then Baleba and one of the other two who didn't start this one against Fulham (worth noting Fulham have a very quick turnaround, Sunday-Tuesday so unleashing fresh legs against them could be deadly...

    [Albion] Top 4 finish

    It expects 39 points from our remaining 26 games, or a 57 point rate over a full season. Given the pre season expectation of 49-51, the model now rates us 7 points better over a full season than it did at the start, which feels fair enough

    [Finance] The cryptocurrency (Bitcoin etc) thread

    My attitude is that it comes down to the golden rule of having a diversified portfolio. I've got about 2.5% of net worth in BTC because I think the value long term is either close to zero or massive. You wouldn't want to not have any if fiat currency became obsolete!

    Presume this is trolling but we played them off the park for 45 minutes!

    It's thought that this one of the reasons Musk is throwing his weight behind Trump - Vance is in bed with Peter Thiel and other Silicon Valley technocrats with questionable beliefs

    [Albion] Brighton & Hove Albion vs Tottenham Hotspur *** Official Match Thread ***

    And yet, by xG, we were only 0.3 behind Spurs at the break. Welbeck's chance was the best chance of the half (0.4xG), the 'glorious chance' in the first minute was worth 0.07xG, Johnson clean through was worth 0.14, Johnson's goal 0.37. I think a large part of the concern with our style of play...

    [Albion] We look such a poorly coached team

    Individual errors for most goals along with elite attacking play from Cole Palmer and facing two of the best attacking sides in world football?

    [Albion] Injuries 2024/25

    The one thing you can count on other than death and taxes is that Brighton injuries take longer than the original timeframe. Gruda came with a 'minor niggle' and hasn't been sighted on the pitch nearly two months later!

    [Albion] Julio Enciso - Paraguay’s new wonder kid (Signed 17/06/2022)

    Agree with the development thing. In the game against Wolves last season just before he got injured, there was a 20 minute period at the start of the second half where he was unplayable, it was like we had prime Phil Foden in our ranks. If he can rediscover that balance he is potentially our...

    XG doesn't work like this, it suggests either Chelsea finishing was very good or the goalkeeping was very poor

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

    I think the key step change in our season was the 0-4 to Luton. Before that, although we hadn't been getting results for a couple of months, we still looked the better team in a lot of matches despite all the injuries, but since the Luton match we've been abysmal most of the time. Good chances...
