Brighton & Hove Albion 1-1 Newcastle United - 04/05/2025

[Aiston]

Just really poor so far, need to wake up in the 2nd half.

 

Complete lack of creativity to the point we don't even look close to creating anything.

 

CL is in our hands, we cannot be putting in performances like this.

[JigsawGoesToPieces]

Tbf its not as though Bruno hasn't got previous for being a diver

 

Ref's will probably be aware of this

[Lush Vlad]

Weird performance. Some really crisp passing at times and worked some nice openings. 
 

Whilst simultaneously looking toothless and half asleep. 
 

Isak is nowhere near fit. 

[SiLvOR]

Infuriating half. They're such an average side, always pluck a jammy goal against us. Fucking needs sorting out at half time, we're sleepwalking to a defeat here when a draw at least is easily attainable.

[TBG]

There's no two ways about it. Two defeats in three is relegation form. Good job there's still a second half to play and after that only 3 games to go, not 30.

[AngelofTheFourth]

Slow.

[The College Dropout]

Thought we lacked an edge but otherwise ok. 
 

Spineless defending cost us.  Too weak. 

[Astroblack]

Can someone set up some Tom and Jerry type traps around Pawson’s house please? 

[SUPERTOON]

Quite a common away display so far tbf. Hard to see where we get goals from to turn this around.

[GEFAFWISP]

Very much winnable still, they've offered nothing outside their goal really, final third is where we're losing this, making line splitting passes and not taking advantage of them. Need to cut some of the complacency in possession as well, Tonali/Bruno in particular.

[Pilko]

We were crap there, absolutely no end product and incredibly poor on the goal. 

 

Sick to death of losing the this same bastard fixture with a whimper every season, especially when it's against nowt special like these.

 

Second half needs to be much better. I'd remove Willock who's a complete non-event as usual and probably Isak too who may as well not be there.

[Scoot]

Brighton away. A similar record to our Liverpool away record.

This will be the 8th time in a row we haven't beat them away, that's not good enough.

[looneytoon]

At least only 1-0 at HT. Still not over

[The Bonk]

We’ll, that was not ideal. 

 

Need a shakeup here, Eddie. Murphy has been ineffective as has Willock, other than his decent run and chance. 

[southernmag]

We've got some kind of demented mental block playing at the AmEx.

[pubteam]

We have had several instances where we have multiple players marking the same man and they all just stand off the Brighton player, including the goal. Terrible goal to

concede, need some actual fight in the second half.

[Smal]

contrary to popular forum belief I think we’ve been ok, probably the better team and gotten into the better positions. Jus irritating that Brighton seem to have twice as many players as us in their box when we get into good positions.

[aussiemag]

Gordon and Miley need to come on.

Brighton are a good teamm. Where’s this “they’re shit” coming from? 

They look fucking gash.

We haven’t got going, but are the better team.

It took them 2 stoppage time goals to beat West Ham last week, their only win in 6 games.

If they get a European place, they’ll be shown up.

They are on the beach and we are just sitting staring at them on the sun loungers.

Joelintons presence a massive miss in midfield. 

 

But yet I keep seeing people say he needs to be replaced in our midfield.

 

Willock has been wasteful going forward and has not had anywhere near the kind of contribution we need off the ball.

[Keggy_Keagal]

We've been ok but it's not clicking. Weird that Brighton have Dunk on Isak and we haven't played a single ball through or for Isak to take the run in behind him . 

[samptime29]

Always gash away to Brighton. Please get a draw. Need to improve.

Wilson would be even more invisible.

Wilson would make Hollowman visible

Approach play hasn't been too bad but the final ball has been embarrassing 

Willock outside of the foot nothing cross when a standard ball across with Isak waiting 😂
