Swindon, but used to be Manila
I was having a chat today with a doddery old Albion fan..... kept going on about Bobby Smith...not really sure what he was on about just humoured him until the nurse arrived to change his diaper and put him down for his afternoon nap.

Having watched the game against Everton, there was (with one exception) no-one who looked like they should be banging on the door for the first team. They had plenty of possession in the first half but just kept passing backwards. They had a bit more urgency in the second half but I don't recall a serious shot on goal and in the last 10 minutes, they pushed a centre back upfront, who kept fouling everyone. Although it was only 1-0, in truth, Everton several decent chances.

The one exception for Brighton was the left back, Cochrane, who showed some serious pace, plenty of skill and an excellent crossing ability. I'd like to see him again but no-one else really stood out for me

Thought Ahannach looked worse than the first team wingers, wouldn’t take full back on and at 23 should be near to full potential. Molumby didn’t really show much but Sanders looked bright in 2nd half. Cochrane was our best player by a mile and impressed the Everton commentators.

Thought Sanders and Molumbey both looked OK, especially Sanders. Only saw the second half though, and tbh I thought the team did pretty well. You're right, though, Cochrane was our outstanding player. Trouble is, he's a left back, and Bernardo isn't the first name on the list of first teamers we'd like to see dropped.

Did all of the team who played last look like they should be in the first team, NO. Bunch of over paid wankers with no passion.
