Why are the Roy In brigade so abusive and angry with those who have a contrary view?
I was jumping out of my chair with the Benteke winner and it was a great feeling.
A real smash and grab.
But it shouldn’t mask the problems as highlighted in previous pages by those who would like a managerial change in the summer.
A lucky but very satisfying win does not invalidate the legitimacy of the concerns.

I wouldn't like Potter. His teams lack spine and steel. Plus we already have a hard time scoring, no point in playing slightly better and still not scoring. Genuinely think Potter needs a season or two lower down - which he might even get next season.

Red and Blue Army!

To all those who quote FFP as the reason for us not spending take note of this figure.

Bloom won’t sack him, he plays fast one touch football that gets the happy clappers creaming their pants.

Will be interesting to see though should the love fest still apply if they are in the Championship and dare I say it Division one....

Because we already had players of the highest level in the squad. They came from nothing, so they had to spend to be competitive in the PL. Imagine that we didn't have Zaha. With thay buy alone, we would have spent nore than Brighton.

We spent a lot too, but we had sales as well(AWB comes to mind).

But Brighton will have a great financial future too, people who analyse finances know they promoted players who will be sold for a lot more (Trossard, Maupay, Connolly, McAllister, Lamptey, March, Dan Burn). They also have some very exciting loanees at a very young age (Gyokeres etc.)

I disagree. They have many chances. And ot only in this match, in most matches. They need a little better finishers.

Is it better to live by accidents like Benteke's goal? We win 3 poknts ouy of nothjng, but keeping this up.will surely mean relegation in 2 years, cause you can't fool football forevwr.

Meanwhile, Brighton keeping this up and getting a few bettwr finishers will rise in the league in 2 years and will even fight for Europa League spots. It's how a manager build mechanical football and tactics and the guarantee of wins in the long term.
