Brighton will be expected to win, we are expecting them to win. But I am going for a 0-0 and finally reach the 30 point mark. The bottom two sides are gone, but Fulham have some fight in them and could get out of it. We will stay up, but I have a feeling it will be touch and go now unless we can get some of our injured players back. We are badly missing Jeff Schlupp, the team looks more threatening with him in the side. I don’t agree that Brighton are expected to win. It is Brighton not AC Milan. We have every chance of winning the game and I think we will win, which will drag them right into the relegation mix and hopefully be the catalyst that finally sends them down. They are sitting where they are in the league for a very good reason. Edited by EddieMac (21 Feb 2021 9.12am) Edited by EddieMac (21 Feb 2021 9.13am)

Edited by EddieMac (21 Feb 2021 9.12am) Edited by EddieMac (21 Feb 2021 9.13am) Not a chance, we are presently the worst team in the premiership and would lose to whoever we play - tomorrow we will get stuffed unless Hodgson goes back to 3 central defensive midfielders which might give us a chance? He won’t, so I expect a heavy defeat. But I will happily eat those words if I’ve got it wrong.

Poor you ... must admit I saw more than my fill of PL matches over Christmas and New Year and was appalled at the poor quality of football on show. It's not just Palace that delivers $hite. Agree with this 100%. Watching the highlights on motd makes the premier league look unbelievable quality. Watching so many games makes you realise that the average quality isn’t really that good.

Fulham are out of it, they're by far the better team amongst all of us all they needed was to fix two simple problems and they've done it with style, they deserve to stay up with the way they play the game. We are the worst and probably deserve to go at the moment. Edited by Tickled pink (21 Feb 2021 9.38am)

I've said before that almost every game is incredibly uninteresting, football is all about watching your team not others with pure willing and then utter dread.

Brighton and Fulham are going to to keep us under pressure for long periods with the way they and we play, we cannot defend.

Fulham were excellent yesterday and Loftus Cheek is sublime the way he strolls around the pitch always popping up in the right place. Why oh why didn’t we buy him or push harder for another loan instead of that useless striker.

Eze has to be given a free role behind Mateta/Benteke he is the best player on either side, play this as midfield and defense Ward Kelly Cahill Mitchell And Pray Cahill should be nowhere near the team. He's been present when we've been stuffed though. He seems to not like venturing too far from the penalty area, and as a consequence we defend far too deep. The problem is exacerbated when partnered by Dann.

I like your optimism, but all the pundits agree that Brighton should have won a lot more games than they have, and they seem to be on the up. The Monday statistic is meaningless. Brighton have only won 1 home PL game all season and they have never won a PL game on a Monday.

If I'm reading the table right Brighton are undefeated in 5, taking 9 points out of the 15 available. I really can't see us turning them over in our current form. I'm more interested to see if we turn up and make a game of it. And we have taken 6 from our last 15 available. It will be an even contest and whoever takes their chances will win.
