Brighton vs Aston Villa Post-Match Thread

[Smithy]

Deserved nothing got nothing. It’s going to be squeaky pants to the end of the season as I can’t see how we are going to find energy to overcome Liverpool and Palace.

I thought it would be done before the final day, but now I don't think so.  I still think Spurs will lose against Man City, but there is still 3 points we either have to win, or they have to drop, for us to be ahead of them.  Right now, I'm hopeful they drop 3 today, as we don't look like getting a result against anyone at the minute.

That's not a criticism of Unai or any of the players. They just look feckin shagged.

[Allan C]

A poor display by tired players. Given the stick he’s received, Olsen was superb today and with a bit of luck from the penalty, he’d have kept a clean sheet. All the rest are clearly knackered and need the end of the season. I think we’ll still clinch 4th place though and the manager needs to look closely at the squad if we’re to progress in the CL

Fuck sake

[Rudy Can't Fail]

Haven't won for a good few games? Not beaten the Villa at home since 1980?

No worries!

We went out of our way to help them get a bit of confidence back first half, so it was no surprise they stepped up second half and were taking the piss by the final minute. Team selection didn't help, Konsa had one of his worst games of the season today, can't think why. Playing two midfielders against their four was again not the best idea and our attackers had such little service, when they did see the ball it bounced off them.

Brighton were there for the taking but we set ourselves out to self inflict. We only have ourselves to blame.

Some people love it. I'll never understand that way of thinking.

[Clark W Griswold]

We won’t win another game this season. Dreadful all over the place.

It doesn't look like it but we have pulled good performances out of no where so never say never.

The Liverpool Spurs match is absolutely crucial to us, i reckon they'll lose at Man City but win their other 2 so it really does come down to this one, if your prediction comes true.

[The Edge]

As poor as our game was I thought the 30 second post match analysis Sky gave us was very poor. They couldn't wait to get to Anfield. Come on Liverpool. I feel dirty saying that.

[RamboandBruno]

If spurs win today, i think it might be done for us, given they’ll have Burnley and Sheffield as two of their last 3.  If they lose i don’t see them laying a glove on man city in their current form, so i think we’ll literally limp over the line, which will be more than fine. 

So essentially in my view, we’ll more or less know in about 2 hours time.

We're running on fumes, with little or no options from the bench & it shows. We got nothing & deserved nothing. But we can't be overly critical.

Apart from that arrogant twat of a ref. If he hadn't given or rather guessed it VAR would never have given it.

We're running on fumes. I know what I would do on Thursday night but it wouldn't be popular.

If Spurs don't lose today we have to play the kids, we can't go into the Liverpool game with the same energy as today.

I agree.  We simply cannot lose 4th.

[N'ZMAV]

that was as useful as a floppy cock, piss only.

[Dick Edwards]

An alternative viewpoint on the upcoming game would be Spurs getting a point which would leave Liverpool with nothing to play for next week.

[PaulWinch again]

Cash on for Rogers was a mistake. It just accentuated the disparity in midfield.

[Skerra]

Doubt we will get anything at Palace. Our best chance of points is the home match v Liverpool.
Big mistake today to play Konsa at RB. Their winger had all the time in the world with the space he was given.
