Brighton v Villa - Match Thread

[CJ]

Poor defending - could have driven a bus between our centre backs

[Tuscans]

Good move, would like to see us play with 2 up top seeing we have 5 million forwards.

[Rudy Can't Fail]

Not much you can do against that. Great move and goal.

[Jimbo]

You knew it was going to happen. Now get that fat fuck off and put Ayew on. Bacuna for Ashley I-kicked-it-forward-once-so-I'm-ok Westwood.

[jwarry]

Not much we could have done about that!

[Matt Collins]

Good goal you have to say

[Hampshire Villa]

half time can't come quick enough now!

[supertom]

How is it Glenn Murray has 150 career goals? He's bobbins. Mind you he looks about 50, maybe it's taken him 30 years...like Heskey.

[Hampshire Villa]

keep your chins up lads, long way yet!

[pauliewalnuts]

We were playing so well, too

Under our last few managers what would now happen in the second half would be total collapse.

Let's see.

[Rudy65]

I read recently that scoring just before half time importance is rubbish. No stats to back up you go on and win the game. Here's hoping

[Brend'Watkins]

Gabby's contribution is effort and not much else.

[malckennedy]

We were the better team by a distance. Unfortunately we have Hutton and Agbonlahor who are playing poorly as usual. Westwood's been OK though.

[Matt Collins]

Good first half performance that. Unlucky with the goal

Bruce needs to give them the belief to go again. We can get another here

Would definitely bring ayew in for gabby and put kodjia up top

Would be nice to see us pass the ball better. It's a bit 'MoN' so far under Bruce

[supertom]

Gabby's contribution is effort and not much else.

That's already better than what he's given in the previous couple of years.
