Brighton & Hove Albion - v - Leeds United *** Matchday Thread***

[asturianblanco]

Firpo is the worst player since Brolin, cant believe we let Alioski go, the boy had a winning attitude, and our winning stats when he was in the team were impressive. Firpo, as well as looking clueless, also looks like he cant be arsed, which is much more of a problem, that kind of shighte is contagious.

[BelfastAndy]

He is quite shocking.

[hopelesslyoptimistic]

He is quite shocking.

To be fair Gianni may have struggled with Lampety too - he is the best attacking wing back outside of the top 2 I have seen

[bathlad61]

Surely Gelhardt, young yes, but a more natural / aggressive striker than James, should play up front, with James reverting to his obvious position out wide.

For some reason Bielsa is putting square pegs in round holes at the moment when there is no need to.

Strange.

[UbiqueLUFC33]

Well, maybe because Firpo IS a full back??

Who knew?

[UbiqueLUFC33]

Another poor performance but that's become the new normal. We should consider ourselves very lucky to have scraped a point from that debacle.

We didn't seem capable of passing to anyone on our team - maybe it was the ridiculous lilac strips - as happened with the Scum Gray shirts at Southampton a few years ago. When even Raphinha and Phillips are off the boil we are always going to be in trouble. Shackleton consistently hoofed the ball aimlessly but he wasn't alone. Firpo is the new Roberts (by which I mean he is dog poo) although, somewhat ironically, Roberts did OK when he came on; at least he managed some shots on target.

After 14 games last season we were on 17 pts having won 5 drawn 2 and lost 6 and sat 13th in the table.

Thing is Rev, Below us this time last season where Sheff utd, West Brom and Fulham - who couldn't muster a point between em

Different proposition this season - even Norwich have started picking up points

And though we wheren't that much better points wise this time last season we where playing well - can't say the same now

[Tichi1]

Lampty ripped Firpo a new arse tonight and he was rightly pulled off before he got sent off!

Not offering Alioski a decent contract now looks like a huge mistake.

To be fair to Firpo, His booking was down to a really poor hospital ball to him from Harrison
Think Harrison is the liabilty at the moment

Yes I did notice Harrison was poor again last night and agree he gave Firpo a suicide ball but I think we have a few liability's at the moment.

Need our injured 1st teamers back quickly.
