Match Thread Brighton 0-1 Everton. Sat January 25th. 3pm

[Mikey_Fitzgerald]

The absolute audacity of the Brighton fans to boo the ref there

Nailed on pen and every 50/50 has gone their way

 

[ValBlue]

Did veltman get a card for the pen

He got a card for being a bellend (it was probably given for the handball, but the argy afterwards didn’t help)

 

[Runub]

Not pretty but I’m not complaining. Brighton will surely be better second half

 

[Blue83]

Did veltman get a card for the pen

No he did not, don't understand why not

 

[Wat Tyler]

Did I hear correctly, Ndiaye was booked for that celebration he does?

If so, that is absurd.

 

[Shibbywiggles]

Good half, team set up to defend well but actually commit men going forward when we have the ball. Also really like the switch to three cbs when we’re in possession as it pushes Mykolenko up and gives Ndiaye more space to come inside

 

[PhilM]

Long way to go but decent gap between us and the bottom 3 if we hang on

Especially when you consider we have a game in hand, too.

 

[HappyJack]

McAtee in for Doucoure and were off. Vault me!

yearh got to fight for this now everton

 

[jonnyg]

Nothing sticking to Beto atm, Garner or Armstrong for Doucoure would be good. Someone else to help carry the ball forward since Beto can't do it.

can you say it later then?

 

[witchdoc187]

can you say it later then?

I hope so mate

 

[MikeH72]

We need to be ready to respond when Brighton throw on their customary 4 subs in the 58th minute.

 

[Frenk]

Get Armstrong on for Doucoure

 

[Drumblue]

3 points is all that matters at this point in time
