[Albion] MOTD Tonight.

[Bodian]

First time I’ve watched this in a while

First time we've been on early enough to watch for a while...

 

[Stat Brother]

First time I’ve watched this in a while

Me too.

It's a shame the analysis was ruined by those 5 (five) words about Arsenal.

 

[Farehamseagull]

Timo Werner, what a game! [emoji23]

I’m a bit pissed with Chelsea, the 10 was definitely there for the taking today!

 

[Swansman]

It's a highlights programme. First aired in around 1964. A class above. We all watch it. After Emmerdale and before Corry.

Yeah I know. Its a nice tradition. We tried something similar over here but it never really caught on.

 

[GT49er]

Mwepu is the new Bissouma.

Well, we bloody needed one of these after recent performances!

 

[GT49er]

Fair enough in this case IMO. Most of the points Brighton take from the top 6 comes from great performances, often outplaying the opposition and creating a lot more chances. Then they should obviously talk about that. Todays win was a different style, you could say. It really wasnt a great performance in most ways, rather it was a hard-fought desperate warrior-style win... which feels equally good but probably not something the average neutral would have a **** over.

Well, you could say that - and you probably are - but the nature of the goals we scored would suggest that that view is pants.

 

[DavidinSouthampton]

Ian Wright very fair….

I thought he was biased. How many times did he use the word fantastic….,,.. about us!

 

[Swansman]

My view is based on the full game, not just the goals.

 

[LamieRobertson]

My view is based on the full game, not just the goals.

….and yet all the ‘experts’ (not on NSC) I’ve listened to say it was a well deserved win

 

[Swansman]

….and yet all the ‘experts’ (not on NSC) I’ve listened to say it was a well deserved win

Yes and I agree completely with that.

 

[LamieRobertson]

Yes and I agree completely with that.

….good ….so perhaps not desperate?
Adjectives used were for example cohesive…….perhaps ‘warrior like’ related to the last five mins or so?

 

[Swansman]

….good ….so perhaps not desperate?

It was but it doesnt make it any less deserved.

I dont think the performance was great - quite nervy, gave the ball away a lot, poor passing accuracy, didnt create many chances - but it was still better than what Arsenal produced.

Also sticking with the "desperate warrior win" thing, a "I'd rather tackle this ****er from behind than giving him the opportunity to even think about doing something creative" sort of attitude.

By now we should all be able to agree that numbers of chances created is an irrelevant metric in football. Point proven by BHA.

 

[Harry Wilson's tackle]

95% of the talk will be about what has gone wrong at Arsenal

Well, well well. 95% was about Mwepu. The other 5% was about Brighton.

 

[aolstudios]

Mwepu is the new Bissouma.

& way better than Biss was at this stage.
With an eye for goal, which Yves looks unlikely to ever achieve

They’re very different players.

 

[GT49er]

They’re very different players.

As in, one knows where the goal is, and the other ...........................?
