Murphy has been such an important signing, not played well today but his goals have been so important.

Scores stay the way they are only Huddersfield can catch us, YESSSS

Goofran ffs, that'll change things, I guess he goes into number 10 with Diame dropping back. Hayden injured again

The ref is always going to give a free kick there, stupid challenge when you had someone else who would have stopped the player.

Yedlin has be awful, simply awful today.

Rafa has to be called out if this stays this way, it's all well and good keeping it fresh, but the changes are terrible. He's got this completely wrong, and appears unwilling at the moment to change it. It's not getting any better.

7 points behind Brighton now, if huddersfield win their game in hand we are 2 points ahead, it's twitchy arse time now.

The changes have been terrible to be honesty, the centre halfs still look shaky. Diame has looked awful and totally ineffective. Atsu has done nothing but replace Gouff so no change there and Murphy has not held the ball up well at all and done absolutely nothing to give them a game at the back.

No way we win the semis. I think we would win a Wembley final but you are right over two legs we aren't going to get past the semi final stage.

Good finish though, we are not going to throw this away surely ?

Fuck

Should have scored Ritchie, great ball by Dummy

It looks manky.

Brighton, so efficient , that's why they are champions. Think they will struggle though next year since they haven't played well against the better teams this year, all the teams in the PL will be better than what they faced this year.

Unlucky Shelvey, hit that well.

You are describing the game perfectly tbh, nothing happening.

We aren't even doing the winning part as of late though, most important stage of the season and we can barely create a chance. That's bollocks, we created a ton on Friday.

Yedlin lucky there.

I don't think Shelvey has completed a pass yet. Diame is looking leggy, very little sticking with Murphy. This is just a mess.

This is dreadful, a point may be the best we can hope for today.

Terrible start. Can't string two passes together atm.

Be interesting to see that breakdown for Huddersfield and Brighton, Huddersfield in particular seem to have a knack of knocking in late goals to turn results, or at least that's what I recall.

He put in a shift, got a crucial assist, didn't sit on his finger the bulk of the game waiting for a chance to come along like Gayle has been doing since January. He was excellent tonight in the role of a target man who harried the defenders and created space for others, it's not a coincidence that that was one of our best displays in a long while, despite the result.

It's fucking ridiculous to criticise him tonight, he put in a hell of a shift. That real shit from Shearer, he should know better.

I've gone from a 9 to an 8, still pretty certain we'll get there but we are making tough work of this and it could go down to the last game which would make for an extremely tense few weeks.
