Thought Ollie looked lively in the box* when the camera panned to him.

Yep, he was missed today.

You've stated this as absolute fact! >:(

He didn’t say absolutely. You did.

You know what it means, right?

We missed not having a second striker to bring on for half an hour to get an extra body in the box occupying their back 4, and Ollie runs about and pulls people around. I am a critic of him, but he is always useful. Wish he had been fit.

With a bit of luck he's back and on the bench at the weekend?

Hasn't looked as good this season, have we seen his best days?

He loves playing against Brighton so you have to think he’s starting in midweek.

We needed to get Tammy on before the 85th minute.

Well let’s hope Ollie has bagged his customary Brighton goal and we are up 3-0 in the 60th. Give him a nice rest and have Tammy lead the line getting a goal or two in the time remaining.

Hasn’t looked good but still in joint top 10 goal scorers. He’s not having his best season but he’s still very effective. Tammy is a good option and was unlucky with his disallowed goal last week, but other than that he didn’t do much to say he’s absolutely a better option .

I agree, but had things rolled his way, he could have had a hat-trick against the Bees.

His second and third league goals came in the same match (indeed the same half) as his first one did.

(the Liverpool 7-2)

And another one in the Hibs game a couple of years ago.
