[Albion] Frank Lampard’s Chelsea vs Brighton & Hove Albion *** Official Match Thread ***

[Acker79]

Do you make a change at half time? We've used two subs, so if we don't we only have scope to stop the game to make changes once...

What happened to Ferguson? Soccer Saturday said he signalled to the bench, was it a challenge? Does it look bad?

Turned his ankle. Walked off though.

 

[Stat Brother]

Lads it's a bit loud - can we turn it down from 11, please?

Summed up on Chelsea match day thread

Brighton squad valued at £50m??!

 

[Hove Lagoonery]

I bet he'd be a match for Tony with that poker face!

 

[US Seagull]

I thought it was a foul on Fergusson when he got injured. VAR didn't even look at it. How surprising

I don't think there was a foul, but he did catch a boot across the midriff. But the injury seemed to come from how he fell.

presumably, what we paid

Possibly fell unnaturally because of being kicked?

The midriff kicking knocked him sideways on his standing foot which was caught in the grass, hence the ankle injury. Not a foul for me, but sh*t bad luck.

Silly me. I thought that kicking a player in the midriff was a foul.

Ankle turn when landing! Ouch!!

This Football is Fantastic
How can it be that it draws the miserabelist s out of the shadows to moan

No idea - maybe ask @pure_white ?

Summed up on Chelsea match day thread

We turned down £75m for Caicedo so I presume the other 10 players are valued at -£25m?

 

[US Seagull]

It's probably a Faustian bargain, but I might trade a little bit of "good" for a little bit of "luck" here.

 

[KZNSeagull]

Chris Sutton does like us doesn’t he?

He does now. Don't think he ever used to

 

[Gabbafella]

Possibly fell unnaturally because of being kicked?

Looked like his studs caught and he rolled his ankle.

Should call out Sanchez distribution - outstanding to Mitoma deep in their half multiple times. Brilliant

And Mitoma’s control to take some of those balls down has been beautiful to watch.

"Brighton have been absolutely brilliant": Chris Sutton

He then went onto suggest Chelsea should go after RDZ he said “the last one they got from Brighton wasn’t any good but this one’s the real deal trust me” I do wish he would just shut up
