Brighton and Hove Albion PL (H) | Post Match Thread

Lucky to get a point today. Unlucky deflection off Khusanov but that's what happens when its panic stations at the back. haven't read the whole thread but does anyone know why Bernardo was taken off after 17 minutes? Is he hurt?
He was limping after a challenge! Saying that he did not want to come off! Has been great for years like KDB and Gundo! We need to play younger legs like Nico O now!
 
Probably a fair result, either team could have lost/won it in the end.

Didnt tell me anything I didnt already know about the players, system or needs going forward.
 
Until Pep changes nothing will. 4-2-4 formation!!!!

Yet again his substations were bizarre.

We were lucky that Brighton player ballooned it over the bar
 
I wonder, if this was a 5th or 6th title we were going for would people still want Pep sacked. I mean where does it stop? Crazy.
In a vacuum, wanting our most successful manager fired sounds crazy. And many agree it's crazy. And I think the players need a new voice and I think that sounds crazy. But it's not a vacuum, it's 12 solid months of mediocre to poor performances. He's earned the year off, but if it's shit again next year, then these people calling for his head now have every right to say I told you so.
 
There come a time with every manager when he can no longer deliver and that time has been reached with Pep. The rebuild has to be done with a new manager and new tactics. The incredible success he has enjoyed cannot be denied.
However his self-belief has now caught up with him. His signing of players and refusal to play them in their correct positions has been badly exposed this season. For someone of his supposed coaching abilities there has been no improvement in any of the players we have signed in the last 2 years and nobody has come through the youth system to establish himself. If Rico is the best we have what a shambles. Sorry to be so negative but truths have to be faced
Exactly this.
The fact we went out and spent 60 million on yet another slow midfielder shows me there will be no change in tactics under him for next season. Doku has not improved his final ball, our defending has regressed awfully, even Haaland does not seem the same as his 1st season.
Same slow sideway passing when the game has now moved on to pace, power, press.
Worryingly, every team we face look fitter and better coached than us this season.
 
Just want the season over. Know where we are with the charges. Reset and go again.

The big questions for me, has football evolved again to exploit the weaknesses in Pep’s system, or is it purely down to a fall-off and lack of intensity after 4 unbelievable seasons. Plus Rodri.

I don’t know but the manager has earned the benefit of the doubt to try and put it right.
