[DFL JCL]

Bissouma looking good again. They aren't getting anywhere near him at the moment.

If Ezequiel Schelotto is El Galgo, then what is Tariq Lamptey?

That'll do very nicely - we've controlled the game and look the better side in every single department.

Lamptey is causing them all kinds of problems down the right, as is Bissouma through the middle (the way they're going, I can't see Shelvey and Lascelles both finishing the game). Another positive as well - through Bissouma, Lamptey and Alzate it's so refreshing to see us attacking and countering with genuine pace.

Trossard playing more towards the middle is what I’ve been wanting for bloody ages, getting him as involved in the game as we can is what we need.

Spot on, I said this after we signed him.

There was no way he is that effective on the wing, down the middle as a CAM just seems like a no brainer.

I think that I've worked out Bruce's tactics, kick Lamptey and pump long balls up front. I took a long time for me to see that, about 30 seconds.

I wish Solly would try to do more than just win corners at times.

OK Dwayne

 

[Palacefinder General]

Carroll, Shelvey, Wilson all complete toilet and Bruce is clueless. How much have they spent?

 

[oldboyroy]

That, has been as good a half as any I have ever seen our team play considering it's premier league. Just simply perfect

 

[Guinness Boy]

Outstanding first half. Totally in control

As half’s of football goes that’s as good as it gets brilliant half.

If we had Lampty Mark II on the left sides teams would not be able to deal with us

Roberto Carlos has retired.
Other than him I can think of anyone else in the class of Lamptey.

 

[dangull]

This Lamptey could be a superstar. My only worry is he could get seriously injured with his 100% commitment and opponents trying to kick him off the pitch.

 

[Icy Gull]

Anyone else still a bit worried? (too long an Albion fan)

 

[crookie]

As good as it gets, absolutely superb in every aspect.

Aside from a couple of hairy moments a flawless performance.

They simply have no way to handle Lamptey, and if they do again they’re getting a red next time. Some lovely passing from Ben White as well.

Same again in the second half please. Let’s not let them back in.

What a superb all round performance.

Ironically, I think we are now seeing the benefit of all that work Hughton did with Solly

 

[Bry Nylon]

Steve Bruce warming up to bring himself on for the second half.

 

[Garry Nelson's Left Foot]

Wonderful performance so far. A second half as comfortable as the first would be dreamy. In fact that first half was so comfortable I'm nervous about the second half...

It's one-way traffic. I think Steve Bruce can't wait for half-time so he can change a few things. Brighton have so much pace, it feels like every time they break they are going to score.
