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

[saafend_seagull]

4-5 players away from having a team playing this way. We won’t get more than 15 points with these players in this system. Maybe not even 15 goals!

Couldn’t score in a brothel.

Speak for yourself

With Chelsea's reliance on kids we will never have a better chance of of winning at the bridge. There are shades of the Hyppia years today which is very concerning.

 

[TSB]

Alzate does look quietly impressive despite the massive step up for him. Bodes well for the future.

 

[Mackenzie]

Out of sorts today, we're missing players and with illness in the camp perhaps this was a predictable result, especially away at Chelsea who have a decent team. We're still work in progress and with a few more players back hopefully results will pick up.

Disappointing to lose as always but maybe next week will be better,

 

[Bodian]

It does look rather like we're heading for our first spell in the bottom three.

 

[Albion Dan]

Come January, MAYBE we will actually sign a goalscorer at top level.

If not, could be really hard to stay up.

We might well be in a position in the league were one doesnt want to join us. Our recruitment policy this season has been baffling.

15 shots on target?



Let's not be too harsh on the players for today's performance. Almost all of them are coming back from their midweek injuries.

i would have thought the vast majority of people expected to get outclassed today. it's chelsea

Its not the chelsea of old though ffs. They hadnt won at home or recorded a clean sheet before today. I'm not saying we should be beating them of course, but we've been piss-poor today, really piss poor.

 

[Raleigh Chopper]

You’ll be the easy target punchbag. As the fans so excited this morning about a famous result for the Albion today , simply can’t admit we’ve been outclassed again.

Yes I will, if it's deserved.
But I won't be gloating and laughing about it though.
You are sticking up for someone who delights in The Albion losing.

 

[Albion Dan]

The style is so much better and we were never going to break out of the relegation bottom 14. Anyone who thought that is really really stupid.

One goal in five. Yeah it's great.

 

[sjamesb3466]

It's not a surprise really. It's not dour and miserable like last year, but the end result is the same.

Of course, we're not expecting to get anything out of it today.

This 100%

Only top six teams would expect to get anything away at Chelsea, I think many on here need a reality check. I'm actually enjoying this season and change of style. Yes, it hasn't got us as many points as I would have liked or we have deserved but it's a shite site better to watch every week compared to last season.

Let us not forget we are also without March, Propper, Trossard, José, Duffy, Bernardo.

Only disappointment for me is that I think the recruitment team have really ****ed up over the summer in not investing in another striker, especially if loaning out Andone and Locadia was an option.

15 points........are you on the beer

 

[boik]

Definitely our most disappointing game so far. Squad looks a bit thin to cover for injuries etc. Plus side is Conolly and Alzate getting valuable game time which will be useful.

Probably going to lose to spurs too. I was expecting a slow start this season with everything changing. I think we'll be OK with people back and playing lesser teams judging by the way we played against NU etc.

 

[sagaman]

Sadly relegation form after the Watford opener

I want Potter to succeed by the squad looks thins, not helped by the two loan moves after the PL deadline Both Locadia and Andone did well at Watford

Mind you Hughton had arguably a worse hand transfer wise.

Not today we’re not.

NSC is going to be fun tonight.

Do I get popcorn or crisps? Both?

Decisions, decisions.

I'm going to hide in my safe space before someone mentions Big Sam.

Have a fun night.

What a load of old bollocks.

Not convinced loaning out you-know-who, thingummybob and wotsitsname was the smartest thing we've ever done.
