A lot of very valid observations this morning. 10:33 - Jan 17 with 2412 views | homer_123 | Just my two penneth worth and it's really, really basic. For me, last night, was nothing more than us not taking our chances. Not saying the observations made others is wrong - just simply that, had we scored first, a different game. Yup, second half, notably after their goal, was flat but the simple fact is, we take our chances and maybe a different result, certainly a different pattern of the game. Oh well. We go again. |  |

Hmm, possibly. I'd say we have converted those 'type' of chances this season and last? |  |

A lot of very valid observations this morning. on 10:45 - Jan 17 with 2236 views | southnorfolkblue | Didn’t think we really created anything of note. A few long range efforts which you would expect the keeper to save. As has been mentioned somewhere else the most frustrating thing for me was our failure to read Wes’ cut backs. He’s been doing it for 3 years so someone really should have been on the same page |  |

I think Burns should have scored his chance, that was the best one that comes to mind. |  |

A lot of very valid observations this morning. on 10:53 - Jan 17 with 2148 views | billlm | For me we had two good efforts outside the box, Apart from that never really got in the box, Burns had two great pull back crosses which made him look poor as the last two seasons we would have the 10s latching on, Brighton were never going to be poor in this league for to long there a good established team built over several seasons with a good manager, Not to down beat First half I think we shaded it once we got going, Second half to get anything we needed to score first, |  | |  |
A lot of very valid observations this morning. on 10:56 - Jan 17 with 2124 views | ibbleobble | For me, it was the kind of game we’ve been used to seeing us kick-on in the second half with lots f character and fight but after the goal went in, we looked shaky, which we’d started to eradicate from our game. Not too despondent but after 4 great points it’s another springboard opportunity missed and Feb is fast approaching. |  | |  |
A lot of very valid observations this morning. on 10:59 - Jan 17 with 2086 views | DarkBrandon | Broadly agree. It was very noticeable how thin our bench was wrt attacking options. Three central midfielders Three full backs A keeper Hirst and Clarke Last season we often played 8 different attacking players each game. |  | |  |
A lot of very valid observations this morning. on 11:18 - Jan 17 with 1992 views | BloomBlue | Only think was, none of our chances were what I would term clear cut. Broady & Delap had excellent shots from outside the box, but shots a GK should save. The cut backs from Burns were the most annoying, Chaplin reads those all day long. Not saying he would have scored but someone should be coming onto those and having a shot. On the one occasion (I think it was a Burns cut back) Hutch took it off Cajuste's foot |  | |  | Login to get fewer ads

He didn’t have much time to think about it tbf. I wouldn’t call it more than a half chance |  |

If that falls to Chaplin or Omari then it's a goal. |  |

A lot of very valid observations this morning. on 11:21 - Jan 17 with 1940 views | _clive_baker_ | I think the bigger issue was not creating the chances to take. We had a few shots from distance but they were relatively comfortable saves. A few times Wes got down the right but the final ball wasn't quite right. Arguably it was right, but there was nobody to get on the end of them. I'm not a fan of the stat particularly but our XG being 0.27 tells a story. |  | |  |

in his defence, the ball came to him very quickly |  | |  |

We only attempted 7 crosses . . . that is a concern, although not sure who would have been on the end of it as we lack bodies in the box most times. |  | |  |

But then so did Rutter and Mitoma's. Difference is Brighton have the quality to take those opportunities which we probably lack a bit. All fine margins but could be the difference between staying up or not. |  | |  |

Mitomas wasn't really a moment of quality, it somehow found the gap between Davis legs and waltons hands, there was no quality in the actual shot itself other than being on target. |  |

It was on target.....he did enough and he scored. Burns' shot wasn't. |  | |  |

It was also slightly unlucky - from my position it looked like a couple of degrees to the left and there were two players there to tap it in, a couple of degrees to the right and it goes in the corner |  | |  |

With Burns's change, the ball came at him and it was a quick flick of his leg to get the shot off Mitoma had 5 yards of open space and time to get set. [Post edited 17 Jan 12:53]
