Right, now I can be worried that we never win at birghton.

We've not beaten them in two years, we haven't won IN brighton since we were in the championship in 2017.

With that said, 3-1 to us.

Time to right wrongs in this match and get the away win against them.

 

Hoping for an improved performance from Willock. He tends to improve with a run of games. And he'll be better in a match where we'll be looking for chances to counter-attack. He's one of our best when he's confident. Fingers crossed.

 

I also think we'll see a big performance from Isak too. He's been scoring but hasn't been dominant like we know he can be. 

 

3-0, Willock, Isak and a late goal from Big Willy Osula.

We hadn't beaten Liverpool in forever, and hadn't scored or won at Wembley in forever ever. Tis the season to rewrite the record book. 

 

Never convinced by losing streak stats. Meaningless in the scheme of things. Each year and each match is different. West Ham nearly turned them over yesterday, and they're fucking shite. That said, in this case I think a draw will serve us and I can see 2-2 in my palantir. 

Anybody knows any good child friendly pubs in the west end of Glasgow I can watch this it would be appreciated. 👍

a few rousing choruses of 'we are the mods, we are the mods, we are we are we are the mods' should put the fear of living god in to them.

 

We had this convo before and I was horrified to find out how many greasy smelly rockers we have amongst us. I thought you were one of them actually... :whistle:

If we press high and man for man we’ll get beat. Just sit in and hit the fuckers in the break. 


we should set up like that in our remaining away games. Arguably should have done so against Villa too. Control and win our home games. Take fewer risks away and see if we can nick a couple of points or six

Completely agree. Hindsight makes it easy, of course, but a draw against Villa away would've been almost worth a win against anyone else in these last few games 

 

Can't fault Tindall though. He went for the win. Fair enough. There was merit to his "if it ain't broken" approach.

 

But now that Howe's back you'd expect to see the usual defensive tweaks for our away games.

Yeah. I was thinking that as well. I didn’t watch Man City (a) game but I assume something similar happened?

 

he went full press v Brighton at Amex last season and they just bypassed us with a long ball up to Evan Ferguson every time. Think they did the same against us at home this season (used Welbeck and Ferguson is memory serves).

We mullered them at home this season but were in our couldn't hit a cows arse with a banjo phase and we got sucker punched.

Just had a peek at the fixture list and I think we have a reasonably good round of games coming up too in terms of who our rivals are playing.

 

City v Wolves

City are much improved but Wolves are the form team in the league. That's a very tough game for City. I'd still pick City but it wouldn't be surprising to see Wolves get a result. City are still not the team they once were. Big chance for Wolves to prove a point about their recent form.

 

Chelsea v Liverpool

There's every chance Liverpool down tools now. It's undoubtedly the best time to play them all year. But Liverpool are streets ahead of the competition for a reason. They're class. And Chelsea are fuckin shit, especially so with Palmer's recent dip in form. Has one goal in 16 games or something I think. You'd think even a severely hungover Liverpool has a good chance against Chelsea.

 

Crystal Palace v Forest

Palace into a first FA Cup final since Pardew's dancing nonsense. Conversely Forest just knocked out. Could go either way. But hopefully Palace can carry their form into this match & catch Forest feeling a bit sorry for themselves. I'd lean towards that being the most likely scenario: Palace carrying their cup heroics into the next match home game.

 

Villa v Fulham

This is the outlier. Outside of playing a relegated team this is likely the easiest fixture in the PL at the moment. At home to a team on the beach for months now. Shit club derby. Battle of the terminally boring. Villa likely win, obviously, but the fact they lost at the weekend means they are on the verge of being out of the running for the CL anyway. One more bad result for them probably ends their chances.
