We asked for your opinions on Brighton‘s 5-1 pre-season victory against J-League side Kashima Antlers.
Here are some of your responses:
Martin: Excellent performances by everyone, Barco really stood out, as did Minteh and Cozier-Duberry but a great all-round display only spoiled by the offside and handball goal they scored near the end. There’s so much competition for places this season, it’s looking good!
Norm: Watched the game on live streaming and we looked fluid going forward, particularly in the second half. Cozier-Duberry and Sarmiento were very sharp and took their goals well. I can see why Arsenal were gutted that Cozier-Duberry turned down a new contract to join us.
Ryoka: I watched the game in Tokyo. Mitoma‘s dribbling was sharp after his injury, and also other players played well resulting in five goals. Looking forward to coming 24-25 season!
David: Opposition poor defensively but very promising signs for Brighton with a host of talent on display. Lots of speed and an eye for goal – there will be competition for places this season and that is always a good thing.
Jason: Solid first half, Mitoma started to look good as the half went on. Interesting choice having Baleba as centre-back, but he did OK. Minteh looked promising. Second half was a far more attacking formation and some really good movement for the goals. Cozier-Duberry… why did Arsenal let him go? Sarmiento has to stay with us this term to try and break through.
Tim: Very exciting times, our attacking options look fabulous for this season and I’ve got a great feeling about Hurzeler, he seems calm and composed with the whole team looking sharp and ready for action. Can’t wait for the season to start!
