Diallo is a player we should try and get in on loan in future seasons.

No chance, will surely be in the squad at Utd

Should have just booted it into the stands. Diallo far too good a player for this league

Diallo best player i have seen at this level.

 

[clint van damme]

Shame about the goal conceded but otherwise a great performance from back to front. Thought Eccles gave a solid mature performance.

He's getting better every game. Will be a real asset as he gets more experience.

@Greggs sign up mate and ask them what that makes them if they just lost to a shit club?

I found that comment really amusing, just down to the three brain cells behind it.

Top 3 is all sorted out, anyone up to Blackburn in 4th is catchable.

We’ve got the best player in the league. We’ve gotta stand a chance.
I just hope Palmer ain’t out for a long time.

 

[covhead1]

Great 3 points!
Our defense was shambolic for parts in 2nd half and their goal was a gift from Hamer but WTF We won!

Certainly up there.

 

[Brighton Sky Blue]

Gyo handles interviews just like Haaland

 

[Tommo1993]

Yeah, tricky bastard that Diallo is.

 

[Deleted member 5849]

Superb interview on Sky with Gyokeres and Allen. Camera has to keep panning down whenever they talk to Allen

 

[Sky Blue Pete]

Hope so but didn't look that way

Yep hamstring pull or tear

 

[David O'Day]

Certainly up there.

I'd hope so given how much United paid

Looks justified on this season's evidence

 

[stupot07]

Great to get the 3 points, but not the greatest performance in the second half. Robins made the wrong sub, Godden should have come on for Palmer, Wilson-Esbrand offered absolutely nothing on or off the ball in his stint in midfield.

Criminal by Hamer at the end, making it much harder than it needed to be.

Great result. Shane about Hamer's moment of complacency, but never mind. The win's all that matters.

 

[Grendel]

I feel a bit sorry for JWE but he’s just not up to it - if palmer isn’t out we need to play godden

Looks out of his depth so far. BNC is maturing though.

Got to give these young players time to settle in. You would think people learn from RNC but nope same thing will happen to JWE it seems lol

 

[shmmeee]

Thought Gus had a poor game, ridiculous pass for the second aside. Wilson, Allen, BNC all had good games. Worried about Palmer always seems to be something bad when a player just pulls up.

Games up to the break all seem winnable ignoring Preston being our bogey team.

Not the best we’ve played but deserved the win.

hes still pretty erratic. He looks like an accident waiting to happen too much for me

BNC was very poor for large parts today. Still don't think he is any better than Dabo or Kane or Eccles there. He defended better second half though.

After the assist for Vic last season against I think Fulham, it should be renamed to Bend it Like Godden.

We don’t have time for them to settle in we’ve only 3 months and the seasons ended

Cuffey is trying his best but no one knows what he’s going to do. He’s like John Williams with no pace.

 

[Travs]

The points are all that matters, but thought (up until our superb 2nd) we could have no complaints if they had equalised.

First half we absolutely bullied them.

Gus was very good out of possesion, not so great in possesion. Great shift defensively, their goal aside.

First half he gave me the heeby-jeebies, kept getting beaten at will and looked a penalty waiting to happen.

He just needs some game time, he has the talent, but was asked to come into a high tempo game and play out of position and found it hard to settle.

Jwe spent a lot of time playing out of position though

Hence why I added 'so far'.

 

[stevefloyd]

Hopefully it was a dead leg rather than a muscle strain/pull.

He was holding his hamstring no way was it a dead leg

Have to disagree with that.

3 months is a long time in football. He won the ball and started the move for 2nd goal

 

[PUSB-We_are_going_up]

BNC just looks very awkward going forward, its nothing flashy like Palmer but it works more often than not, JWE got more into the game when he got pushed back to LWB, I think a bit of time and he will prove to be a good rotation off the bench for Bidwell to offer something different. Palmer was very good before he came off, hope injury isnt too long Im guessing it’ll be 6-8 weeks but hoping its not that long. Godden looked good coming on, dont think he should start against Preston as they’re a physical side and he’s just come back from injury, think we should start with Allen and Gus in behind Vik with Eccles and Dabo in CM

 

[Tommo1993]

Understand he’s raw but BNC did get on my nerves a little bit. Countless time's they pinged the ball over to our right and he’s (again) so far out of position, right next to McNally. Jamie Allen eventually was playing as a second wing back.

Callum Doyle had his slow-mo pills this morning. Eccles looked out of his depth in first half but grew into it. JWE was too far off it.
