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

[Return of the Rev]

46% Brighton first half. Thought we had more possession than that ��

Yes, he has made numerous unforced errors in the Chelsea third. Lesser players wouldn't have been in those positions of course, but he is an excellent player having a poor game.

It’ll be so us to dominate over 2 legs and come away with…a point! And that’s why Chelsea win trophies and we don’t. Small margins etc

If you call £500m a small margin (rough difference in squad costs), then fair enough, you have a point.

Well the BT guys concentrated almost only on our play and that tells you something.

They've had 2 shots on target and more possession. I'm not moaning though. Was always gonna be tough with 5/6 players out.

Cucarella. You don't have to be big. You don't have to be physical. You just have to be a good football player. And Cucurella IS THAT MAN.

I hope we can get back into this and at least draw, we deserve it on that half.
But I am not too fussed because I am getting so much pleasure from the way we play, we are so close to being a really good top 8 team that will challenge the top 6.
I wanted mid table this season, we are doing better than that and playing great football.
It's more than good enough for me.

This, next step is to be a bit more incisive in attacking areas. Exciting times though. I still say 1-1. Our favourite score.

The small margins of having a spent £100 million on some players? Maybe if we had that we would be winning.

It would be nice to have David Silva and Sergio Aguerro on the end of our approach play.

Yep. And if we had that calibre, we would be in the top 4.

While it is still 1 goal in it we have a chance. Just need to have shots on target.

Ooof not been Welbeck’s evening so far

 

[Mancgull]

Welbeck should have done better there

That's why we need Trossard on.

 

[Machi]

Moder is really good today

How does Maupay need one more goal to equal Murray's Premier League record......... is that stat correct?

 

[Grizz]

One thing I will say is that Thiago Silva is frigging awesome. So composed at the back there.

It's Premier League goals for Brighton. Glenn got 26, Maupay has 25

 

[London Irish]

This is almost as frustrating as watching Withdean U15s on Sunday morning

 

[Frutos]

Cucurella is such a classy player.

 

[Psychobilly freakout]

Are there any Chelsea fans at the ground

One and a half season’s work (entire team checked out in second half of 18/19) versus two and a half seasons
