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

[Hendrax]

As roberto said after united.
if we lose on monday this win means nothing. onto the next.

 

[Icy Gull]

No moans from me, Everton have mugged us, we were so ineffective in the first half

Steele has had an absolute ‘Mare whilst Pickford has had a blinder

 

[Farehamseagull]

Gross in sand there! Stunning finish from McNeil.

Fully deserved for Everton and Dyche. I can’t stand Dyche.

 

[Zeberdi]

You don’t have him in the side if he is liable for injury. The injury proves he should have started and played for a long as he can and then get subbed. we now have a sub replacing a sub. Poor management on this occasion!

Please don’t be obtuse - all players are at risk of injury - and Solly only coming on late into the game was because he was really needed and was a case of attempting to MINIMISE the risk by having him on the bench rather than definitely using him by starting him.

- unfortunately for Solly he went on not in top condition and paid the price.

Everton have been the better Premier League side today - same way we trounced Leicester and Wolves we ourselves have been trounced.

A day to forget.

Definitely. 1-5. Bloody hell. We move on.

Is it a coincidence that we seem to concede more goals with Steele? He’s conceded 2 against a poor Leeds, 3 against Brentford and Forest and now 4 against bottom-3 Everton.

Look at the saves Pickford’s made.

No

and it's 5

 

[WhingForPresident]

We're still well placed to finish above Spurs and Villa but can't afford any more 'bad day at the office' shite.

In before we turn over Arsenal then lose to Saints.

 

[rool]

I think Sanchez may be back for Sunday.

 

[Mustafa II]

Horrible game and horrible end to the season.

Fair play to Everton for that first half performance.

No, he may be better with his feet but a poor shot stopper. Big Bob a far superior goal keeper in every way accept distribution (still not bad). Get Bob back!

 

[KZNSeagull]

Crikey

 

[DJ NOBO]

I don't think any of those goals are Steele's fault

Did you pop to the loo for the own goal then ?
His positioning was terrible.

 

[doogie004]

Absolute embarrassment let’s be realistic europe was just a dream

 

[Garry Nelson's Left Foot]

If we'd played the first half like we have the second and we'd lost even by this big a scoreline we could have no complaints but that first half was absolutely shambolic.

There's plenty of credit in the bank but it's an incredibly wasted opportunity to all but secure a place in Europe for next season.

We'll batter Arsenal.

 

[Bridcutt]

Yeah you have to drop Steele for this. Fantastic with his feat but he can't save shots that premier league keepers should be able to

 

[WhingForPresident]

What an embarrassment.

All this 'RDZ to Juve/Inter' media chat, this game and Forest have shown he is far from being the finished article.

 

[birthofanorange]

Horrible game and horrible end to the season.

Fair play to Everton for that first half performance.

Oh, I didn't realise the season was over. FFS...

 

[RandyWanger]

Embarrassing.

 

[Lethargic]

That was the perfect exhibition in how not to defend. Not going panic but as a single game that was shite.

 

[Whoislloydy]

Steele is f***ing awful. Whole team should be fined two weeks wages.
