Match Thread | Brighton vs. Manchester City (31/08/25)

[Gumzy97]

Transitions we look different than last season. More a counter attack style

 

[Pingu the Penguin]

Effort erl

 

[TFC]

The players are not capable of doing what is required in this system.

Hill die on

I don't disagree. Radical suggestion....might be worth changing the system to suit the players we do have...

 

[I'm With Stupid]

He's getting in the right areas. If he keeps doing that, the goal is coming.

 

[TinFoilHat]

We cross and nearly scored.

Could do with doing more of that.

 

[Dr Jacoby]

Nice cross from Ait-Nouri.

 

[dhruvblue]

We're caught between strategies, systems, and squads at the moment. Everything looks and feels disjointed.

20D complex tactics no one seem to have grip upon including manager

 

[jollylescott]

Good play that was started by a Marmoush tackle to win the ball.

 

[theholysmurf]

Better but someone needs to just leather it from outside the box once in a while

 

[shadygiz]

He’s never a winger/wide player, in a million years. He can only play central! As he has for 99% of his career

old inside forward position?

 

[waspish]

Well we making the chances for Haaland

 

[malg]

You're just a shit Danny Welbeck.....very good.

 

[5 Hit Gibbon]

We haven't started that great. There's not been much flow to our play. It's been a bit scrappy but I think we will up it a few gears.

 

[HorlockofFiretopMountain]

I know not in this match but in general.

Ah right you had me confused, I thought this was the matchday thread for this match ;)

 

[Beanhead]

Shirt pulls are only for the rags it seems.

 

[Ajm1985]

Good play that was started by a Marmoush tackle to win the ball.

Couple of great bits of tracking back from him so far

 

[Kippax Street 1880]

Blatant foul on Bobb ignored

 

[ws01]

Bit worried about how deep Traff positions himself. A team that plays their backline so high needs their keeper high too.

 

[TinFoilHat]

I don't disagree. Radical suggestion....might be worth changing the system to suit the players we do have...

Big Sam it.

Lump it to the big lad.

:)

 

[EL APACHE TEVEZ]

Come on city Come on City
