Wow, tomorrow really is a must win.

Wow, tomorrow really is a must win.

Why?

 

[Milano]

Because we’ve got City and Chelsea next - I predict 0 points from those 2 - after those games our form chart is going to look very bad if we don’t add a little green square tomorrow evening, and we’ll be in the bottom half.

 

[jcdenton08]

We should win and I’d naturally love a win, but I take must win to refer to either maintaining a title/Europe charge, avoiding a relegation battle or avoiding the manager getting the sack.

I can’t see any of those as possibilities, so for me it’s not a “must win” but a “should win”.

 

[Paxton Dazo]

9 home wins.

 

[Swansman]

A win would be great. Not the end of the world if it doesnt happen, but would be very helpful to get that first win for De Zerbi. A loss and the most likely outcome is that Brighton will have lost five in a row quite soon, which is definitely not horrendous given the opposition, but creates sort of a bad feeling that will only go away through winning.

 

[Beanstalk]

Wow, tomorrow really is a must win.

Would be very nice to win, and on paper we SHOULD be winning but I don't think I've seen a worse use of "must-win" in a while.

Tomorrow is not a "must-win" by any stretch of the imagination.

 

[Billy in Bristol]

On the back of watching the Albion live on TV only three times this year: Fulham : Tottenham and Brentford : I have vowed to give this a swerve and lock myself away without any access to the TV just in case it is all my fault.

5th to 11th…

 

[Jeremiah]

Wow, tomorrow really is a must win.

Agree. Otherwise, I will really have the hump.

 

[Bodian]

Palace could be just a point behind us. Or seven.

 

[Weststander]

17 points would be immense and a huge boost to RDZ for his efforts so far.

Imho we’ll know with 5 or 10 minutes how it’s likely to go. Comatose starting Albion teams seem to fail to deliver a win, whoever the manager is. Hoping it’s the opposite.

 

[Motogull]

Its your classic 'banana skin' game.

If the team feels nervous it could be a grim night. Let's get behind them and show the love.

 

[Swansman]

The 18 last times Brighton took the lead in a game under GP, I think Brighton won 16 and drew 2. Surely the players still feel confident when they get in a position like that..? First goal could be very important.

Forest are going to park the bus at 0-0 and they’ll still keep it parked if they’re losing 1-0, god forbid we go 1-0 down tomorrow, they’ll park buses/coaches/lorries/aircraft carriers. We have to score first tomorrow.
It’s under the lights, we need an atmosphere, the team need to come out firing, I hope RDZ goes for pace. I’d be tempted to start Lamptey, gutted Mitoma is out.

 

[Greenbag50]

30 shots on goal, 20 on target. Keeper MOM, 80-20 possession, 600 passes to 40. 40 touches on oppo box. 1-0 pen to Forrest pen.

It certainly would! I'd happily settle for three!

 

[Weststander]

It certainly would! I'd happily settle for three!

It's two points for a win, isn't it ?

 

[Bodian]

Palace now just a couple of points behind us, and could soon be above us again.
