Brighton & Hove Albion (A) | PL | Post Match Thread

We were fortunate to beat Brentford, Fulham & Soton and scraped a win v Wolves

Unless we sign two worldies in Jan we ain't winning anything this season. Even then it might be too late. I'll gladly eat my words if wrong
Don’t worry I’ll bookmark and remind you ;)
 
Incredible isn't it

One league defeat in the calendar year and people are losing their minds

You have to lose at some point.

People have short memories. Pretty much season has games we just scraped through and losses against teams we should beat. That's football

Knowing how we finish seasons, I'm more than OK with where are right now.

Rodri is a huge miss but he hasn't played a full game for us in the league this season and we're in a very good position still and lost once. People should calm down a bit. We'll be OK, especially once we get some players back.

And if we don't happen to win the league for the first time in 5 years then it'll just make the next one more enjoyable.

I'm done with this team

Absolutely disgraceful stuff. Can't even do the basics right. Developed a weak mentality and can't hang onto a lead. Only a few players are doing their job but we've become bottle jobs!!!

Pep is a spent force. In reality, most managers get a good 10-15 year run if they're a top manager and that's their lot. Pep is probably there now.


Without Haalands goals we would be bottom half. And nobody can say we would play differently and players would make up the goals if he didn't play because they wouldn't, they're all performing shite. Haaland should be looking for his move away.

Every dog has its day and we have. We'll be pretty much on the same downward spiral the rags have been for 10 years.

But that's football. You can dominate forever. English football history tells us that.

I've had a great 3 years supporting city, since 2021 because I wanted to support Grealish but I've lost hope.


Well done Brighton. Great spirit. Definitely a team I might align myself with.

You sure you're not bipolar? Or something? Or had one jar over the ten?

Or are we to take it that the third post is supposed to be a parody post?
 
We're here during this point every season.

People on here lose their heads and declare our season over.

Then we kick on after Christmas and win the league.

Those people are then quiet until the following year.
Yeah true but feels different this time - this squad peaked in the treble season and we have key senior players past their best and injury prone and a manager who I think is unsure if he wants to extend his stay for a rebuild - this isn’t a blip - Ipswich Brentford Southampton Wolves we scraped a result - at our best a few years ago we beat teams like that 4 or 5 nil - young energetic midfielder was required and Gundogan should be replacing him with 20 minutes left not starting - any real surprise we lost 4 straight ? Add to that the charges and we have testing times ahead - but still not as bad as when we used to lose to Stockport etc
 
4 titles in a row is unprecedented and will probably never be done again but that is the reaso. You bring in new young players to experience winning titles and trophy’s but instead of refreshing the team and evolving we stood since our treble winning season we have brought gvadiol who looks the real kovacic who is a good player but not world class of elite , doku atm a decent player with potential, nunes a good player that’s about it , savio who looks quality and gundo who is to old and best days are behind him . These signings to probably The best team in the world are not good enough and will along with players who are now to old and njury prone stagnate us and in the end we are following fergies path in his last season at Utd when that had no right to win the title but used up everything to do it . If Pep doesn’t take a two year extension then he needs to go in the summer and let the new manager start to rebuild this team because even though it’s only two league games lost we look finished .

100% it is different this time..
Many things have come to a head..

Players breaking a fingernail and claiming unfit to play. ( Excluding rodders)..

Player recruitment in many departments ( fuck the charges) many top players would still come here but feels like penny pinching from the club..

Pep needs to say what he's doing so all the above can move on ( or not which is what we all want pep to stay) ..

Not least opposing teams have caught up with recruitment and tactically against us..

Agree with all that .
 
It's the ones saying "Either support the lads or fuck off" who get my goat. What difference is some gormless Twitter user with their fingers on their ears shouting 'Lalala' going to fucking make?

You can support the club, as you and I have done for many years, through all the ups and downs, but still criticise things you think are wrong. And, as you rightly say, it's only the players and the staff who can put things right.
We're also old enough to remember the team getting great support in several relegation seasons.
We were certainly well supported all the way to the third division.
