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

[heatmeiser]

Lamptey joined Brighton in January and has been consistently impressive. You just don't want to rate him because he's 5ft 5

He only made his debut in June so that's a bit of a stretch. He's barely played 10 games.

Anyway, we'll smash these after conceding first. 4 - 1

I'll be delighted with literally any kind of win here. I think if we're 4 out of 4 going into the derby and into the quarters of the league cup, we could treat that game as a virtual free hit.

Some terrible football under Big Sam. But you must remember some of the rubbish also under Moyes. I remember us going four matches without a single shot on goal. We have had some awful.teams and tactics in recent seasons.
So long may this run last. Let's hope that DC L can take his chances when they come ,as clinically as he did last night. Let's not rue wasted.chances.

Ah the days of the 4 - 6 - 0 formation. Great times.

On the contrary, it’ll be a top of the table derby with genuine stakes involved for both sides. That’s been the ambition.

No free hit.

1 man up top running the channels they were the days

Good luck explaining free hits to Carlo Fantastico Magnifico.

I can't stand seagulls.
Brighton are good though.

Is this match in any danger due to the new Lockdown in the city?

 

[JohnTheBlue]

Still think we could have beat the Hammers tonight without those players which is frustrating.

I think Carlo has to have a bit more faith in the overall squad - players like Bernard, Iwobi, Gordon and dare I say Davies could still do a job against a WHU 2nd string imo.

Spot on mate, He should have faith with the players that let him down time and time again last season

Just as well, as there is no such thing. Lots of species of Gull, but none called a SEAgull. Apologies - never expected to be sharing one of my major birdwatching annoyances in this forum

That's all right. I am familiar with the phenomenon.

The gulls around here spend most of their time hanging around Macdonalds fighting over scraps of food. I doubt they've been near the sea in their lives.

good so far these, will be tricky

 

[treer]

Lets not do ourselves down, at last we have team.
They have nothing for us to worry about, except the young fullback.
If it is not a stroll in the park we are fckd, falter against these and then we can worry, for real, about the next one.

we win 2/0 or 3/1, and the jackpot is 3/0

I’ve watched them a couple times so far. They have looked very threatening going forward. Haven’t had the best of luck in regards to some of their shooting. Hopefully that stays the same against us. We need 3 goals here I think for all the points.
