[Albion] Brighton & Hove Albion vs Blackpool *** Official Match Thread ***

[elwheelio]

the **** is a dutch international , he should be bossing games like this.

He is a Dutch international but that doesn't mean much these days. Dominic Solanke is an England International.

 

[Icy Gull]

My observations from the first half.

Burn just isn’t good enough
Alzate looks like he hasn’t played, which he hasn’t
Veltman and Biss have looked quality
Tau looks promising
Zequiri is a bit of a headless chicken
Propper needs to show more urgency
We could lose this game

 

[vagabond]

You just have a way with being as negative as possible... Like there are no setbacks allowed and everything should always be plain sailing - not sure what you expect every single game, but your posts are pure negativity against the team and manager every time I unfortunately see them.

[emoji106] well said Sheebo.

 

[RandyWanger]

See the stats for what side of the pitch both us and Blackpool are favouriting? No wonder with the players over there.

 

[Mackenzie]

We could comfortably put this to bed but are we taking this seriously its all just a bit eh?
Lacking real intensity.

A bit lethargic?

 

[Sheebo]

Thought Tau looked useful and had made some good runs with decent distribution.

I thought tau has done well. But doing the simple things and want to see him run at them like he did at City...

 

[Pevenseagull]

Positives

Overall Veltman's had a good half.
Super finish

Negatives

Can't be added

 

[TottonSeagull]

Why can't you just call him Potter instead of always spraying insults around. Makes you sound childish.

The apologist are out in force today! I’ll call him Mr Potter if you like. Doesn’t change the fact this happens almost every week!

 

[BBassic]

the **** is a dutch international , he should be bossing games like this.

He's played 19 games. Hardly the Dutch Beckham.

 

[Neville's Breakfast]

Are we blagging it hanging on in the EPL. Are we just a bang average team, or is it the managers system making us look average? We should be beating teams like Blackpool.

I really hope that last sentence was said in jest

 

[Bry Nylon]

He is a Dutch international but that doesn't mean much these days. Dominic Solanke is an England International.

If you picked for the national team do you get a Dutch Cap?

 

[Steve Foster]

That was simply not good enough. Potter selected a good team but the players have looked disinterested and actually anti arrogant. Like they can they just knock it around and win comfortably.

Propper has been shocking and Tau not much better. His lack of effort to stop the cross for the goal was a disgrace.

And what the hell has happened to Alzate. A shadow of this former self.

Potter will always be divisive amongst the fans when the team can’t finish sides off. Happens week in week out we go 1 up, and get pegged back. Pretty passing footie only gets you so far. And we’ve only had 1 shot on target ahpgainst a side two leagues below us. Bet Fulham aren’t shaking their boots

 

[elwheelio]

We’ve had 1 shot on target.

That’s the problem. Not good enough.

It's not like we've created a hatful of chances either. This point gets missed in the "our strikers aren't up to it" discussion. We don't create loads of really great chances.

 

[HantsSeagull]

just awful. apart from Bissouma's goal, that has been 45 minutes of utter rubbish. capped off by the equaliser.

some players really underperforming and the rest ....well god knows.

 

[vagabond]

I think he is a pillock (in my opinion). Nothing changes! The same problems (especially at home) week after week!

We won last week. Forgotten already?

Saying “Potter is a pillock” just makes you sound like a dumbass kid to be honest.

Alzate, Tau and Zequiri have been disappointing.

Think you’re being harsh on Zeqiri, I thought he did ok. He is clearly raw though so the more time on the pitch the better. He ran all half and got into some good positions, just needs to calm down a bit.

Tau and Propper need to step it up though. I’d be tempted to bring on Moder and Khedra for them early on unless they dramatically improve.

 

[oldboyroy]

Very early days with Tau but, doesn't quite live up to the hype when he arrived so far. Certainly no better than what we've got.....as I say early days!!

 

[Charity Shield 1910]

On the bright side, palace are altready out of the cup and pompey are losing 1-0 at home to Hull in the third division.

 

[Mackenzie]

I’d like to see Khadra get a bit of a run out.

 

[Wardy's twin]

Piss poor defending.
We need to come out with a bit more fight in the second half. Other than Bissouma's goal, that was a bang average performance.

not sure it was that good
