Didn’t know Welbeck went to Brighton

Brighton's attacking play is really good. They are one of the best teams to watch for me in the Premier league. I think they will climb up the table soon.

Brighton ramping up the pressure towards the end of that half, ended up dominating but still no goal to show for it. Story of their season unfortunately!

Welbeck has looked lively, should have scored really. Hopefully get a goal early in the second half to ease the nerves.

A lot of chances falling to Welbeck who just seems like he isn’t going to score

Bloody Brighton even helping Ole now. When the shit is really starting to hit the fan, results tend to go his way. Probably smash Everton tomorrow to give him more time...then lose to WBA.

Fecks sake. Brighton can't keep saying 'we played lovely football and should have won that'. Can't stick the ball in the back to save their lives. So frustrating!

You think Newcastle are bad now? They will sink like a stone once we nick the longstaves off them for our cultural reboot program.

Southampton is playing far more impressive than we did against Newcastle and this is our best performance in the league so far.

What’s impressive about Southampton is they always have an option on the ball and can all retain it.

There will be a very strange-looking top 4 this season, it's increasingly becoming a reality.

Look at how they beat the press ffs. I feel like those that think Ole is good enough don't even watch other matches to see the difference between us and a well drilled team

But Woodward didn’t get Sancho for 120M, how is Ole expected to get the team playing something resembling a cohesive football? He’s not been backed mate.

I asked the question what level do you see Ward-Prowes last year?

Everyone said Everton.

Where would you rate him now, still Everton?

I was going to post something similar, it’s like half the Caf don’t watch football..

Newcastle are prolly the most pluckiest side in the league when they look shit but let games drag with a goal down. Can see them getting a equaliser out of nothing if Southampton don't finish this off.

Clearly a penalty. Not sure quite what VAR is there for TBH

I'm convinced VAR officials just can't be arsed if it doesn't involve them drawing little lines on the screen or looking at mens arms.
