Oh, is that what it is?! I thought you had something wrong with you pal. My apologies.

Laughing at people after you put forward shit opinions with no factual or statistical basis doesn’t paint you in a very good light. It just makes you look like an arsehole. Have a bit more humility and you might get taken more seriously.

Have no idea what's going on here. Have a nice night!

No coincidence we've looked moved solid since he moved to CB. Of course it helps he already has an understanding with Schar after the half season in the trenches together.

I realise now why this guy is a wrong-un. He wears the captain's armband on his right sleeve.

Aye but he wears his Geordie heart on the other one.

Is it not like the watch thing where it's that you wear it on your weaker arm?

[Beth]

Fair play to him, he was shit at CB the times he'd played there early this season but seems much improved at the moment.

Left side of a back 3 is clearly his best position.

[r0cafella]

He was exceptional in what should have been an extremely difficult game for him, massive performance.

Like a new signing

[Guest]

So much better at centre-back. Hopefully never see him at left-back again and he can keep this up for the next 6-9 months. 

[Dokko]

Not too concerned with Botman's injury. DB to play there, make it his own and Botman having to oust him. He should never play at LB ever again, there's no need or excuses for it. He's a CB, and a really good one at that. We need a long term partner for Botman to replace Schar. That should be the focus, and if Howe still isn't keen on Hall at LB, then a new LB is priority. 

[Lush Vlad]

Third game on the spin he’s been great at CB. He has been brilliant in place of Botman.

 

Suddenly seems a menace at corners from CB. I know nothing has changed on that score, really. But I constantly notice him being more physical and aggressive. 
 

If Targett ever gets back fit. Next season we have Hall and him as genuine LB’s. With Burn, Tino and Trippier as cover. I’d say CB is more of a priority now. 
 

Even before the injuries, it felt like a CB was needed. One that is good on the ball and preferably with a bit of pace.

What a thoroughly decent bloke Dan Burn is. I think if you ask any Brighton fan to list their top 3 favourite current PL ex-players it's a close contest between him and Mac Allister, and for different reasons. Mac Allister's attitude plays a big part in why he's still so popular but also his performances on the pitch. No disrespect intended but aside from a comedy goal against Man City and Chelsea at home when he had Lukaku in his pocket, Burn's other games all merge into one - he was solid, reliable. He's always going to get a warm welcome at the Amex because he's such a lovable humble bloke who quite clearly knows he's living the dream and would never take it or us fans for granted. 

 

His sign language celebration was class. Dunno how he was able to control his emotions at that moment. When I celebrate a goal, it's all I can think about. The joy on those kids' faces was just lovely. To misquote Kipling you're a better man than I am, BDB. Must admit, I was worried that Newcastle's new owners would forget that your club is rooted in the community and you'd become just another soulless corporate club like Man U and Chelsea. Never been happier to be proved wrong.

I felt at the time Burn was directly responsible for their goal. Schar was already there and Burn rushed forward leaving the space behind him for a simple pass. Think he was way too over eager. 
Haven’t watched it back since. 
 

[Aiston]

Yeah, looked like he just stepped up for no reason when Schar already had done.

[Away Toon]

Is a decent CB but a pretty horrible LB. However as we keep getting told, Eddie knows better.
