We might not have won that game last season. Jesus's header in the first half and that chance that Aguero made a complete dog's breakfast of before he scored seemed to be deja vu but we got there in the end. I didn't think we were using the width particularly effectively. Last season (and previously) our killer move was KDB or Silva playing a slide rule vertical pass through to Zab running in the the flanks behind the defenders but we still haven't got that move worked out with the the new full-backs yet.
Brighton actually annoyed me. They're pretty poor but were well organised defensively but playing 10 men behind the ball at home, even if it was us they were up against, isn't going to keep them up. A few home fans I spoke to after the game said they didn't expect anything from this one so why not go down fighting instead of being cowards? They lack pace and composure on the ball and there's no way they're staying up if that's indicative of how they're going to play.
