Id be surprised if any of tonights lot are used, garcia apart.

Has to be a cotton wool job for Sunday scs.

We hardly ever seem to play... okay ish, and come away with a draw. We either play outstanding stuff which thankfully is about 90% of the time and win, or we absolutely shit the bed an lose, and tonight was one of those. Its been an achilles heel for us for a few years now, we are far, far too easy to beat sometimes.
Huge finger pointed at Rodri for that blind back pass, the game was done, and that gave them a lifeline, from then on the outcome was all too predictable.
Poor red card, but Cancelo got himself into a right mess with an air shot clearance. Did something similar against Leeds. And yes it was a penalty for me, but the damage was done by then.
Need a big game against Everton to boost confidence before the big one.

Nothing much to say. Refree was bad and looked like we weren't in after cancelo red. Defending was shambolic. They kept coming from left and Garcia was all ends up. Need to forget and move on. But I hope Pep bollocls the refree

Rule states the attacker has to be in control of the ball, or likely to gain control of the ball, and neither was going to happen.

He also has to be fouled.

Quite simple. Smash them next year. Corrupted officiating. However at two nil up there is no excuse even with ten men. However it doesn't matter.

No excuse if Walker/Cancelo were playing, with Garcia, nothing is impossible.

Pep should give the officials both barrels. It needs saying and would be worth the touchline ban.

I mean Brighton players know we are already champions and we have the CL Final coming up and they kept on hacking our players like there was no tomorrow!!!

What the hell Cancelo, just let Welbeck go through. Even if he scores we could have made a comeback. Bringing us down to 10 men in a dead rubber game meant creating injury concerns for our players who have to run more and eventually Gundo had to get off!!! He is definitely out of the starting 11.

Also I am not happy with Rodri. The first goal was his mistake and he stood there feeling sorry for himself instead of trying to go back and help! You made a mistake, get back and help your team!!!

Garcia is so weak I have no idea why Barca want him so much?!! We were so weak on the left because of him.

In any case, its a good wake up call for all the boys. Also next week KDB has to play and get some minutes.

I feel terrible for Torres!!! Could have scored a couple of goals if he stayed on!

We seemed to stop playing when we went 2 0 up. Just started hoofing it up instead of keeping the ball.
Well played to Brighton for making the extra man count but fk me that was bent blatant reffing and VAR on a scale I’ve not seen before. It was shocking.
Barcelona are welcome to Garcia. He’s shit

 

[roach3]

what about the offside from a throw in?
if he gave a foul what for he never touched him

 

[prestonibbo_mcfc]

Wellshit initiatived it

He did. Grabbed Cancelo's arm, dived over the op of him and they tumbled to the floor. Never a sending off.
