Minteh puts that in and the trend continues. Then If Wissa put that one in at the end it would be 3 2 Edited May 2 by Drewboy74 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Aye, a victory at home by two clear goals against the league's most in form team (who started the day in 6th) has certainly lifted my mood. Miserable get.

(Won't deny that it was an improvement). Can’t tell if serious. We were very very good first half… could have easily have been 3 or 4 goals up with better finishing. Second half was tough, but Brighton are decent side, and our nerves really seemed to kick in. Yet we still missed a couple of glorious chances and scored 1. So, aye, I’m happy with that.

Milburn Posted May 2 Share Posted May 2 (edited) Good first half, credit where it’s due. Should’ve been at least three up at the break Second half though… same old. We sit back, lose control in large spells, and hope for the best. On another day Brighton score one or two more and we’re all having a very different conversation. Result is great but performance still full of the same cracks. But for now, enjoy the win! Edited May 2 by Milburn Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

AyeDubbleYoo Posted May 2 Share Posted May 2 It wasn’t the most aesthetically pleasing and obviously incredibly nervy, but happy for everyone they got it done. I didn’t like the lineup but I think this is Howe just relying on specific strengths of individual players that he feels are reliable until he gets to summer and can have a big think.

We were an out of form against a very in-form team, not exactly a gimme. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Wilson Posted May 2 Share Posted May 2 Usual signs were there straight after the second half but the points are what matter at the minute. Can only be looked at as an improvement as we didn't get pegged back. Was miffed by the lineup but at the same time I was telling anyone who'd listen... There's been plenty of times where the lineup looks lifting but the performance has been sound, which was the case for most of the first half today. Honestly expected us to get humped. Long live the king. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rich Posted May 2 Share Posted May 2 Can’t knock it, really, but the second half was almost a monumental arse drop. I haven’t bricked it that much for years. The selection ultimately paid off. Burn scores and Murphy/Osula combine for one, then two subs seal it after two subs should’ve already sealed it. The celebrations on the bench when the third went in were as big as I recall seeing, it was a massive release of pressure. Safety secured, Howay the lads!

Danh1 Posted May 2 Share Posted May 2 Good to see some of our shithousery return. I was mega critical of the starting lineup and I don’t regret that but fair play, the big calls paid off. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
alexf Posted May 2 Share Posted May 2 Will stand corrected on the starting line up. However few could have predicted Burn pulling out one of his rare headed goals and Willock remembering he's a footballer. But clearly Eddie saw evidence in training and picked what he thought was best. Felt we rode our luck first half however. Their keeper making a lairy error and getting punished where as we didn't for Pope's. Second half was same old familiar feeling and felt like we were sleep walking into throwing another game away. Probably should have done but for Minteh's miss. We wait too long to change things when the pattern of the game is going against us and wait til we concede every time. Felt the changes were wrong as well at the time. Just invited more pressure and we had out ball. Hall didn't brilliantly however and Wissa should have killed the game. Likewise Joelinton should have squared to Barnes. A win is a win and we can now forget about this season and any relegation nonsense and try to use the last few games to try things out and finish on a high. But the game didn't convince me we have turned a corner or anything it was a familiar pattern but thankfully the luck fell our well this time.
