Brighton (a) pre-match thread

[HarrytheBlue]

Really? He’s not won it for a while has he?

Do you really think he can take it or leave it ?

 

[SebastianBlue]

Can't wait for this now.

Four days from now we could be champions of England once again.

I was like that yesterday.

Today I never want it to come.

Tomorrow I will be absolutely bricking it.

Friday I’ll be in love.

Do you really think he can take it or leave it ?

I don’t know. It’s a bit silly to say that’s what he’s been employed for when by his own high standards he hasn’t done so well in the competition in recent years? It’s nearly 10 years since he last won it.

Those City fans who say they don't care about the Champions League, do they still feel that way ? I'll be brutally honest - I'm jealous as fuck of Spurs and Liverpool. The Champions League is why Pep is here - it's why we're where we are now. Hopefully Pep's motivated to stick around for a while yet - a few more tilts at the trophy.

Liverpool and Spurs would swap their situation for ours in a heartbeat

I lived and worked in Sussex for three years in the 90s - continued with my season ticket, but that's not what I'm saying. My sons played Sunday football down there. Brighton sponsored a hell of a lot of junior football - very close links with the community - the players got out and about in the county. Any decent young players would at least get looked at by the club - unlike in Manchester where you can be exceptional and not get noticed. After those warm words, I'm hoping we score 6 or 7.

37 down, 1 to go. Wonder if De Bruyne or Fernandinho could be available?

Kevin either starts and goes off after 60 or comes on for last 30.

It's not a case of swapping one for the other.

 

[HarrytheBlue]

Surely our energy levels are back to something like normal and we can play our normal quicker tempo for 90 minutes and start throwing the heavy punches from the kick off ?

My thoughts entirely.

Please no more of these nervy wins. Give us a simple 3 - 0 win with our first goal coming within the first 15 minutes.

 

[Palindromes]

I'm thinking we'll win, I think with the amount of time we have inbetween games I think it'll be a comfortable game. I'm really looking forward to wearing my shirts again. Whenever I wear them we lose, so I can't wear them on matchdays!
