Just liquid football. Got better and better and better. Could’ve easily been 3 or 4 given the chances for Alzate, Maupay, Connolly etc.

Loved it. Everyone was great but the midfield trio of Pröpper, Alzate and Trossard stepped up a notch. If the game had gone on another 5-10 we would’ve seen more goals.

We’re 8th, and it’s the MINIMUM we deserve right now. Drink it in.

As said already:-

Propper's second half performance was the stuff of legends.

Fantastic stuff. We oozed quality in that second half. As we have done so often thks season.
And it's so, so refreshing to see us keep attacking when we go a goal up.

I'm enjoying our football SOOOO much right now. The only frustration is that we should be scoring a lot more goals in pretty much every game. I think Maupay could and should have had a hat trick today with more composure. However, as the OP said, it cranked right up a notch in the second half, and particularly when Trossard came on. Despite them hitting the bar in the first half four or five nil wouldn't have been undeserved. But to get that the finishing simply HAS to get better,

Glad you saw the win. Hope it helped diminish the cold symptoms :clap:

Norwich is always good for target practice.
When Trossard came on, he exuded class, which as per above inspires others to step up.
Fantastic footy in Sussex :D

The change in formation to 433 when trossard came on made all the difference

Some of the one touch football was sublime. There was a move with 5 or 6 players involved that would have been goal of the season if we'd finished it.

I take it you mean the one played in front of the East stand, ending at Connolly's feet.

Norwich couldn't get within 5 yards of the ball.

On the way out, couldn't help but smile at the Norwich fans singing "5-0, We didn't lose 5-0, We didn't lose 5-0"

Yet on another day Norwich bury the free kick Stephens conceded on the edge of our area and it finishes 1-1.

You mean 'That added time at the end of the first half though' (AS WELL). Could have scored four goals.

I think supporters and pundits are no longer thinking of Brighton being a cannon fodder side, guaranteed 3 points if you need them.
After 2 seasons of just trying to stay above the bottom 3, the club is now well and truly established as a Premier league club.
