Brighton 3-2 Tottenham - the fans' verdictpublished at 08:38 7 October 2024


We asked for your thoughts after Sunday's Premier League game between Brighton and Tottenham.
Here are some of your comments:
Brighton fans
Biggles: We normally go two down and it’s game over. What a fighting spirit we saw! That's two from two against Spurs at the Amex. Superb.
Jezz: What I’d really like to know is what Hurzeler put in the oranges at half-time! We looked so naive in the first half, with our high line getting bypassed so easily. They came out for the second half like a team possessed! What a game! It certainly saved MOTD2, which was looking a bit short on excitement before the Brighton game!
Brightoncynic: Fabulous comeback that showed the players can perform as a team. It could have been 4-4 at half-time and 6-6 at the end. Both teams looked like they could concede at any point, but Georgino Rutter's battling, never-quit physicality was what won it. Brilliant.
Keith: Absolutely amazing. What a comeback. Game of two halves. So deflated at half-time. Must have been a great team talk, they were a different side after the break.
Spurs fans
Mob: Game of two halves. First half we were absolutely brilliant and should have scored more than three. Second half we lost the plot. Ange got his wish to keep the game wide open. Brighton exploited our non-existent midfield and Porro and Udogie couldn't live with Mitoma and Minteh. Game management was lacking. Loss is down to both Ange and the players. Shocking!
John: The second half was pathetic - we played like school kids in a park. I have been a fan for 40 years and that was as bad a second-half performance as I have seen.
Herman: Some fans are blaming the manager and the style of play, but that’s got nothing to do with how we played in the second half. No aggression, no belief and not playing forward. Most players weren't there any more in the second half. That's unacceptable and unbelievable. I really hope Mikey Moore will be in the starting XI more often.
Matty: A perfect illustration of Spurs' split personality.
