    'Watford sunk by Dunk'.
    Wretched.
    I hope we're better than under '2 Game Billy'.

    Huddersfield play in their black and red kit, we play a team at home in blue and white verticle stripes?!

    Can only see this going one way...

    1-1. Runners up.

    I think Elvis would be a third declension noun and therefore the plural would be Elves

    Watford to win 4-0, Richarlison chips in with two goals, couldn't care who scores the rest.

    Richie Rich is gonna take us to the Champions League!

    Shame Gibbs won't be sorted in time for the game - worried about their new boy shredding up Mason/whichever Centre Half fills in.

    0-1. Albion's first PL points. Sliva's honeymoon over. Relegation Certs set to boo Gray for rest of season.

    Elvis is a Scandinavian name (surpise!).
    Elvis is a Scandinavian name (surprise?). You're on your own with Swedish plurals.

    Think we will lose today

    Brighton desperate for their first PL win after two very tough first fixtures, they will see this as winnable and be well up for it

    My Heart is troubled. Do I want man city to win so Bournemouth are plundged into deeper waters, or do i want them to nick a goal so that fraudiola and his marching band of mercenarys get exposed
    Could take the draw, that way when we win this afternoon we go ahead of man city again, were we rightfully should be.

    Today's game is a good indication to see if Silva is the real deal. This game has got all the hallmarks of a Brighton smash and grab. However, if silva gets ALL the players switched on for this, we should have too much for them.

    I have that troubling feeling too. It stems from a lifetime of being a Watford supporter.

    As I understand it Brighton's deadly foes are Palace. I'm a bit surprised nobody has made much of this, on the grounds of 'my enemy's enemy is my friend'.
    I'm not sure it was incompetence that lost them their original stadium - wasn't it wily and under-handed property-developing?

    Disappointed that Britos has been chosen ahead of Mason at LB. Shame that there's no Okaka too.

    Good bench though

    Watch Amrabat score a hat trick, set up 3 goals, save a penalty and end world poverty today.

    Mason nowhere near ready yet - season loan to the championship

    Britos at LB? Kabasele with Pr*dl because that worked so brilliantly Tuesday? Good luck to the boys, then. Nice to see Carrillo on the bench at least.

    Good luck to @EBHornet today, it's a big day for both of us it seems! I'll be missing the game as I am moving to Massachusetts for university today.

    I am surprised there is no Hughes or Okaka on the bench. Just don't see the point in having both Watson and Capoue on the bench. Watson was shocking Tuesday night. Seems strange having Success on the bench as well considering he is so close to joining Hull apparently.

    Would also like to see Hughes on the bench but appreciate there's a lot of competition - up to him to force his way there. If Okaka is kicking up a fuss about moving on I'm, not surprised Deeney has made it ahead of him

    Britos as left back was probably the best possible solution, although Knockaert in his first start of the season will be well up for this so he will need to be at his best

    Glad to see Glen Murray not in the squad, don't particularly rate him but he is a horrible ******* who would no doubt have scored

    We should have enough to win this but I have an awful feeling about it which I can't shake...

    No Okaka is a big disappointment. Unless Slimani is on his way it's a very strange decision to push him by the wayside

    Expect Okaka was pissed that he didn't get a sniff after his Liverpool performance.
