Brighton v Blackpool Official Matchday FA Cup Thread 23.01.21

Mitchell is one, I think Ward and Dougell are 2 others Turton as well, not sure about the fifth, I heard there were actually 6 in total.
 
If Brighton are like this every week you can understand why they're down there.

Missing absolute sitters and can't punish a League One side giving them loads of space/chances
 
If we have to play Sarkic, we definitely need the next 2 games off!! We have a large squad and 14 or 15 are decent, the others are totally dispensable. God knows how they will get rid of them in the summer but we need 3 or 4 key signings in my opinion but for a first season it's been pretty good.
 
Of the starting 11, 10 did well. Virtue was the exception, pulling a trailer from the start. We got tired, to be expected, with so many not having game time.

Well done to Williams and Robson, not easy covering the middle.

Gabriel class.

Only one comment on the subs - Sarkic is rank bad.
 
Think we were fortunate in the end to get away with a 2-1 defeat but looking at the side we put out I think they’ve done us proud.
10/10 for Maxwell otherwise would have been 4 or 5. 👍
 
Wasn’t really a bridge too far for us, so quite disappointed we lucked out for their winner. Would have liked a bit of extra time to make them nervous. Not too downhearted though.
 
Gabriel our man of the match, but the injuries and Covid meant we were nowhere near good enough.

Disappointed to go out as I thought we had a really good chance just prior to the news about the Covid infected players, what a bastard!

MJ Williams was utter shite as he has been every time he has played

Not great for the ones stepping in really in midfield especially, Robson I've seen almost nothing from this season.

Very little quality on the ball, even for our level.

People like Sarcic coming on who's done nowt also.

No urgency at the end to equalise there even from those with legs who had just come on.
 
No shame in going out of the cup in the 4th round away to a Premier League team after having to make potentially up to 5 changes to the starting XI.
We gave a decent account of ourselves all things considered, but the better team won.

Let's hope we get some bodies back by the time the next game rolls around, whenever that may be.
