[Albion] Manchester City vs Brighton & Hove Albion *** Official Match Thread ***

[Dick Head]

Trossard's great.

 

[neilbard]

Going to be a long season defending like we do. This has 4-0 written all over

Get a feckin grip!!!

That early season optimism has evaporated

Really?! Why?

 

[boik]

Short on target by Trossard, so whoever was moaning about no shot can shut up now.

Has for me. We are going to concede a bucket load

Christ there are some deluded folk on here. Almost expecting us to hold City to 0-0 until 85 minutes and nick a winner. They're in a different class entirely - it could happen for us one day, on a really off day for them, but not early in the season before their fixture congestion.

I can only think that trossard doesn’t want to put his value up to high to soon

Maybe but the fact we’re getting into the final third in an away game is an improvement on last year.

We were always going to lose this, we’re playing against an absolute juggernaut, but like every game this season so far, it’s been fun and encouraging for the future.

Yes, like the way we’re breaking with 4 men and with pace.

Trouble is defensively we look very open....

Every bloody game. Why do you bother?

 

[Dolph Ins]

Still happy with my 3-3 prediction.

 

[neilbard]

It's HT now we are safe for 15 mins

Because he'd rather have attention than a reputation for meaningful contributions. And the former is very much easier than the latter for the hard of thinking.

Yep - going to avoid this thread for the rest of the game as it is full of self flagellating no marks.Equal possession and 3 shots in the first half is a massive improvement on previous encounters against the City Globetrotters.

If I could be @rsed to multi ignore currently there would be several going on it now absolutely pathetic lot.

 

[Weststander]

As ever, kudos to those who travelled all that way to see the 1/30 favourites and petro$ billionaires outclass the Albion.

If you're not there for the piss-up with mates, even more kudos.

 

[SweatyMexican]

That’s how you play against Man City. We made a few mistakes at the back, but without them and a lot of luck a team can get something out of a game.

I'll take 2-2. Just watch.

 

[This is me]

Hand on heart without BHA blinkers on.

Are there 3 sides worse than us?

After Burnley next up - I hope so, but currently - we are what we are? An also ran in the Prem with no decent strikers. Same old

Some people on here with very strange ideas and outlooks, we've played well for the most part but the difference in quality in the final third is huge and shows is the score. Generally some positive football being played and against lesser opposition we will be fine,
