Brighton (A) | Post-Match Thread

I was at the game. You guys watching the tv may have seen stuff I didnt but, frankly, brighton deserved their win. But for sure 8000 home fans and no away gives home team a huge advantage. No way brighton win that in an empty stadium.



How did you get in when you're clearly off your tits?
 
Where to start. Great start, in control then I thought I saw the worst decision of the season although that came later. Not even sure it was a foul by Cancelo as it was Wellshit who liked arms and then just fell over. Then had a series of fouls against us not given like on Bernardo on the edge of their box. Gundogan is then the victim of a straight red card offence that becomes a yellow with only a cursory glance by VAR. Score an outstanding second then Dave gives them a route back. Crowd (does anyone know how many were there) gets them going and we continue to not have fouls given to us, concede two more shit goals then have another stonewall penalty denied. If anyone can show me where Lallana is in the same postcode as the ball before he wipes out Gabby then it would be appreciated. Awful ref and VAR, BT, their small time fans and result. But we are champions. Just hope Gundogan is ok.
 
Maybe Pep is planning on the biggest last minute tinkering for CL and is about to start Garcia in the final and for that he needs his fitness to be built up a bit.

a lot of Barca fans actually think he is gonna be a big help for their defence but they are in for a shock. He would maybe solid with 3 other good defenders helping him out but Barca's current defence is a mess and Garcia aint gonna make that solid probably quite the opposite. Big mistake not getting a revenue for him last summer.
 
Atwell is either bent or just incompetent, he was all over the shop, fucking useless cnut
VAR is worse

Atwell was influenced by a crowd, the first time he’s reffed in front of a crowd in a year

VAR has no excuse. It’s a cold decision made with time to think. How it could get so many key decisions so clearly wrong is very very suspicious
 
Such poor refereeing and BT coverage was insufferable. That is never a red card. They bring Walton in who quotes the law and they ignore their own eyes. Welbeck wrapped himself round Cancelo and fell over. That's the end of it.

Anyway. Good to see the lads up for the fight. Foden's goal was class and Ferny when he kept chucking the ball 15 yards forwards for the free kick late on was just beautiful shithousery.

Should have won the game and hope Gundogan is okay, but not a hugely bad thing to have such poor refereeing and to play with 10 men for 80mins. Lessons for Porto and a good fitness exercise. Plenty of time to rest up for Sunday and then another 6 days off before the big one where City bring the big eared trophy home!
That from Fernandinho needs to be played on a loop. I'm sure one on the wizes on here could do something. He gets better with age, the guy is class!
