Match Thread Brighton 0-1 Everton. Sat January 25th. 3pm

[Gwladys St. Glory]

Wins? What is this new devilry?

Shame to have yet two more injuries, but an exceedingly valuable 3 points

I wouldn't deem this an Expected Defeat under Moyes. Yes Brighton are better, but Moyes won't talk the players down all week publicly and send them out to simply go and defend with no plan B should we go behind. We may very well lose, but they won't hammer us. We can also take points from this fixture, but may need some luck - something that's been in very short supply this season. The players should approach the game high on confidence following the last game.

I kin knew it.

Looks like Brighton players absolutely losing their heads right now. Young manager might not be able to get it back together. Possible tumble down table incoming.

Playing defensively like this when we are 1-0 up is fine, but Dyche didn't get that. He'd play this defensively when we were drawing or even when we were losing.

We were generally lousy defensively under Dyche and awful against free kicks.

Embarrassing that from Brighton. Got an attitude like they are a Poundland Barca

7 clear, game in hand on Wolves and Ipswich and Leicester to come next week. Win and the others won't be catching us.

UTFT, good start for Davie and the squad.

What was going on with all the off there

 

[siddharth]

Our xG still better than them but possession down from first half, tells the story of the second half

 

[Esgehtvoran]

Begovic with the windmills.

 

[Verbal Kint]

Brighton are a bit frustrated.....

We must be the most annoying team to play against.... I get annoyed watching us

 

[EGWToffee]

Gana was quality

What a win! 3 things!
Back to back wins for the first time in ages
Wolves, Ipswich and Southampton all lost
That Beleba for them is immense
