[Albion] Tottenham Hotspur vs Brighton & Hove Albion *** Official Match Thread ***

[Weststander]

If João Pedro is sulking when we're missing Welbz and Rutter then he can disappear up his own erky.

Head not in the right place / looking forward to a new chapter in his life / career too short to miss out on CL football.

 

[Tom Hark Preston Park]

Dunk starting to be slowly eased out of the picture now?

 

[peterward]

I've given up worrying about the apparent strength of a lineup ever since that time I raised an eyebrow at our starting XI for Wolves... right before we rinsed them 6-0.

But to have no recognised first team experienced striker available, when you still have a slim chance of Europe, is poor.

 

[Greg Bobkin]

Good to see that the final fixture of the season has delivered the usual amount of doom and gloom around here before a ball has even been kicked!

At least the "regulars" are consistent

If it ain't broke

I suppose so but then we've had more squad members score than any other team in the division, so there's goals all over the park if we're at it.

Yep.

They're out to happy clap anything

I knew we should have signed Neville Davitt from Barnstoneworth Utd in January !

I’ve been critical of the manager this season but not sure what choice he’s got today, probably about as good a team as if can put out assuming Mitoma isn’t fit enough to start.

 

[Triggaaar]

He's been injured

 

[Gwylan]

Is there any contractual reason why we couldn't draft our EFL loaners into the 1st team squad? Doyle, who has PL experience and O'Mahoney, a striker, could have been useful options.

Don’t you know, the team never picks itself, it’s always Fabian experimenting.

 

[Seasider78]

Milner injury time winner from the bench.

Almost certain that players can’t play for two clubs without the switch being in a transfer window - regardless of it being a loan.

What would a match day thread be without them……no place on here for positivity!

Yes, their on-loan contract agreement is until 31st May - presumably to cover any play-offs

 

[SI 4 BHA]

Was worried when I saw that FH said we have already achieved what we set out to achieve. Obviously he doesn't give shit about the fans who pay good money to watch the Albion.

Will Chelsea get CL football?

 

[mile oak]

once again no Welbeck highlights the need for back-up up front, need to go into the transfer market for next season for another number nine as DW wont start every game
