5string

YAAAAASS! Davis 1-0 from a fantastic JWP free kick (off the bar).

I'd like Hojbjerg to be given a go in Lemina's absence, but as several mention he's not had enough 1st team experience. So, I'd be happy if JWP came in as a straight replacement. Slightly different set up, and hoping for plenty of corners & free kick opportunities near their box. I imagine Redmond will be in, though.

Just makes me dislike them even more. I have to think about the Cup QF in 1986 to calm myself down - Moran & Cockerill, oh yes...!

I've found sacks of potatoes move quite a lot when put on the ground... Hmm, maybe you've hit on something there!

Incidentally, this is the opponent I REALLY want us to beat this season. I don't like BHA. Had to endure 5 years of living near there with their interminably arrogant and pompous supporters - and I went to school with their chairman! Barsteward (nice guy, actually) kept getting picked ahead of me in the school 2nd XI. I had the last laugh, ending up top scorer that season! :lol: Anyway... Saints, please win this game (and the return fixture).

Decent line up. My ideas for alternatives to this would include: Davis instead of Romeu Rom's been a bit 'off colour' recently, compared to his high standards of last season) JWP or Hoj instead of Tadic (so Tadic & Boufal don't get in each other's way) JWP & Hoj have drive & creativity without the trickery/skill of Tadic - skill we don't really need at Brighton, and which Boufal & Lemina would fulfil amply. All my own opinions, without necessarily having evidence to back it up

Deserved to win. Still needed a touch of special magic to get it, though. Brilliant from Boufal.

My description doesn't do it full justice. Watch when you get the chance - it'll be worth it. 1-0 win! YYAAAASSSSS!! 3 points Clean sheet. Nice one

Picked it up 15 yards inside own half. Turned one, pushed forward, jinked inside to fool 2 WBA players who ran into each other, towards the box, closed down, placed it low right hand side, bit of curl on it. Bang!

Reminded me of LeTiss v Norwich.

What a gooooooaaaaaaal. And I've got Portuguese commentary! Sounds like the Fast Show

Cedric shoots... as expected. Glad there isn't an airport nearby! Our lack of goals is giving WBA confidence (as well as FF's dodgy handling). It's a more open game now. Maybe this will be to our advantage, rather than attacking a defensive unit constantly.

Dearie me that was close from JRod! He shot like he was playing for us, thankfully.

Krychowiak falls over more than a game of Jenga! Does he move by sail power or something? Keeps capsizing. Hmm, Cedric nearly fell over again like the last game - don't need him to gift more points away.

Ooh, did I miss a good Cedric cross? Fair play to him. We're still creating chances, I see. Just need that one spot of luck and we'll click, I reckon.

I'm going to disagree with you on this one. We've been a lot sharper and more attacking than previous games this season Plenty of shots, come close several times. We've looked likely to score this half.

Worst cross in the world. Ever. Cedric... just shouldn't. Pass it easy, mate.

WBA are 'falling over' a lot. Brian's fault?

Ooh close again! Good break away Gabbi. Just caught underneath Long, tried to dig it out, just wide.

Bit of a scramble, Romeu pokes just wide on the turn. WBA blocking their own keeper at corners. Hate to tempt fate, but we're looking dangerous - would even say 'likely to score'. Long range effort from VvD there - close.

Gaah! Shot straight at the keeper. Good attack. WBA sitting very deep atm.

Post!! Unlucky Bertrand.

Haha whoops, just close down all the pop-up ads. It's a little inconsistent, but it's free - Link 8 dropped out, eventually found Link 5 working.

Interesting, but came to nothing. The cross was floated, rather than whipped or driven.
