[Albion] West Ham United vs Brighton & Hove Albion *** Official Match Thread ***

[vagabond]

How does it feel to believe you are always right?

I’m just calling out nonsense hysteria as I see it. Sorry, I don’t agree with the public flogging of Dan Burn.

What specifically have I said you disagree with?

None of the players do....

[Mr H]

Did you watch the Leicester game?

I’m still supportive of Potter, but the way Burn has been torn apart at LB the last few times he’s played there, it’s not comprehensible to me that Potter can’t see that, you could see in the Leicester game after 20 minutes they were destroying us down that side and we ended up conceding all the goals down that side.

I watch all the Albion games.
I am aware that Leicester are 3rd and we are 17th.
I still maintain that Potter knows more about his players and about football than 99.99% of the posters on here.

Its pretty common to mainly express opinions that people believe to be the right ones.

So you're not wooed by the number of bullet headed goals in EPL matches from Dunk, Webster, White and Burn?

But they do go close.

I think the post above yours answers it succinctly. Other people have opinions.

 

[vagabond]

I have no idea why I am answering you but here goes.

I have seen every home game at the amex apart from 4
I saw every match at withdean apart from 12. 2 seasons whilst there, every away game apart from 8
I saw every game at gillingham
I saw every home game apart from 5 when we were in the first division, home and away over the time.
I only missed a few at the goldstone since I started watching us in 1975

I am entitled to my opinion and will give it. I care not one jot what you think about it.

Have a nice day

Am just genuinely confused why the players lining up are so baffling to you. They’re all first team players?

Not challenging your fan credentials. We’re all hard core here. Have a good day buddy.

Of course - they can’t help being selected [emoji6]

Maybe Burn is better option for defending set plays. I presume Lamptey is injured?

Yes Andy N said that lamptey has a hamstring problem and thinks they need to change his style of game to make him “ slow down” . Not sure if I have ever heard of that before.

Can’t remember a young player ever been told to slow down before

Of course and if you put it on a public forum people are going to respond to it. That’s what a discussion forum is. Strange post.

 

[The Wizard]

Are you saying West Ham’s playing style and personnel are the same as Leicester’s?

West Ham actually have a very good team, they have the kind of style I think could spell trouble for us based on what I’ve seen of both teams this season, their strengths are our weakness.

I would hope so......[emoji2]

It is not flogging just opinions. Who knows Burn may be an outstanding CB but facts are playing wide his positional play is poor and wide attackers find it easy to go past him

 

[CaptainDaveUK]

Precautionary according to GP.

He had to replace him with Velts or Burn and chose Burn. This has caused an outcry with some on NSC. Always something I guess.

Well yes, I wouldn’t expect anything less. Veltman has looked good going forward of late, but Burn is better defending set pieces. No doubt Burn will whip in a cross for Welbeck to nod in the winner!

In fairness he really doesn't need to go balls out all the time to beat most opposition players.

 

[The Fits]

Bobby is a great pundit!
Very, very honest assessment of us. And he called us 'us'.

 

[Icy Gull]

Zamora sounding more WHU than Albion

Although I see [MENTION=41448]The Fits[/MENTION] disagrees

 

[Arkwright]

What's happened to Hesgoal? Anyone got a link?

Wish we had a leader like Bobby out on the pitch today.

 

[moggy]

Just have to wonder what has gone wrong with Bernardo. I’d much prefer to see him in that position than burn
