Brighton & Hove Albion vs Arsenal ***** Official Match Day Thread ****

[Dick Head]

We're still 7th in the Championship.

Against a team in the last 16 of the champions league that was one helluva performance, very proud of that. Great that Ulloa played well and scored, maybe he isn't match fit enough for a whole match.

Great see the Albion live downunder, superb effort. Ulloa definately worth the wait, lets make a strong push for the play-offs.

Luton turned Norwich over I see. Looks like they really need N this transfer window, for all values of N, where N is a BHA star.

To beef up the side for cup matches.

Hate using the old cliche but "we can concentrate on the league now"!

vote for man of the match; try and get Ulloa up there!

Thought that was excellent. Bridcutt looked class as always, Ulloa looks like a great buy, Spanish Dave did well again, Barnes as well. Good stuff. Am feeling very confident for the rest of the season.

 

[Cadiz Seagull]

Great performance, amazing how far we've come. We're right on track, well done Gus and everybody

Can't argue with that.

Thing is, keepers that aren't flappers at this level are generally regarded as very good and in demand. Keepers rarely get subbed or injured so there's no point in paying over the odds for someone who's going to warm the bench for 90% of the season.

That's my thoughts. Any money spent on a better reserve keeper would not be available for the outfield 11.

Anyway, we played great football, and we were without Kuszczak, Bruno as well as Buckley and Greer for most of it.

Good game overall but we give the opposition too much time and space on the ball and Lua Lua was the only player to put in real tackles, soft 3rd goal for Arsenal it should have been a Brighton free kick anyway not a corner.
Well done for a good effort and maybe Vicente would have been a better option than CMS today as there wasn't much time left.

 

[Saltydog]

Oh well back to the league. Should continue the season with justified confidence and heads held high - well done The Albion!

PS see Crippled Alice dropped a place....

Proud of the team and proud of Gus.

Arsenal never looked out of reach.

 

[Farehamseagull]

Excellent entertaining game and really good performance from the albion. Ulloa looks like an excellent signing, great hold up play and knows where the goal is. Really impressed with his close control and I thought it was noticable how we looked a lot less likely to score when he went off.

In a nutshell.

Arsenal never looked out of reach.

What, even when there were 5 minutes to go, and they were thrashing us 2-2?

 

[SULLY COULDNT SHOOT]

Just get the feeling we really need another CB..... no Dunk at the mo so we have no cover... the rest of the jigsaw looks in place

 

[Triggaaar]

Just get the feeling we really need another CB

Obviously, as some of us have been saying for a while. And we don't want one as cover, we need one for the first 11. El Abd and Greer have been great for us, but they're not among the top group of defenders in the division. There rest of our team are better.

Hopefully a big Shexy Dutchman.
