Match Thread Brighton v Everton - Preview, Match Report and MotM Poll

[DanB90]

No James?

 

[Saint Domingo]

Thought Godfrey would be back for this.

 

[Gilbert..]

Best option today is attack. Not a hope in hell i dont think of keeping a clean sheet.

 

[dublinbluenose]

There must be a load out the door in the next 4 days.

Looks like there'll be a fire sale.

Where the hell is Godfrey?

 

[Joey66]

Dont remember Davies getting injured how longs he out for?

With Gbamin you never know if he's injured or not as even if goosed you would imagine he would be on the bench as an emergency.

RB congratulated him on playing on with injury v Huddlesfield......

 

[Blues Harp]

I assume this is a none too subtle message from Benitez to the Board & DoF…..

Can't he just tell them straight then? Absolute bollo....
Thought he wasn't shy about venting his feelings.

 

[Verbal Kint]

Apart from the centre back pairing that's not far off our strongest side currently?

It's the bench I'm concerned about.

Iwobi and Gomes are getting on. Don't be concerned

 

[Zatara]

Why is Benitez not outlining the squad's injury absentees or covid related status in press conferences? I accept that they may be waiting for one or two players to come back or someone has a slight knock between Thursday and Saturday but this set up is absolutely ridiculous.

So the opposition dont know?

 

[davek]

Where the hell is Godfrey?

Carrying a knock.

 

[Rooney_Tunes]

Team news in 5 minutes

Will be fun to see everyone have a breakdown when they see Keane and Holgate starting lol

So how are you enjoying the meltdown, NostraRoman?

 

[Blues Harp]

Bench might be crap but CB aside this is our best team and we should be competitive with it. Iwobi is going to play most of the games and he's an option on the bench so we've got plenty here tbh.

Iwobi?????
Ha De fecking Ha

 

[billyblue80]

Michael Keane costs us at least one or two goals a match.

 

[BlueToff]

No James?

he's been included in the talks with Porto so no chance he was playing today as soon as that news broke

 

[TheBigIguana]

Apart from the centre back pairing that's not far off our strongest side currently?

It's the bench I'm concerned about.

And Iwobi is borderline best XI or coming on as a sub so we're not that light

 

[the golden visionary]

He can't play when theres grass on the ground

I really hope you are not going to be disappointed today...

But I fear you are.

Fixed that for yer there lid
