Brighton (H) Post Match Thread

Run of the mill job today, nobody had a poor game, nobody was electric either though, just got the job done drama free against a tight defensive unit. Laportes diagonals were a joy to see.

Not really a criticism of today but more a comment on the season as a whole so far and going forward. we haven't yet found that alternative for breaking teams down, teams have had a year to devise a way of playing against us now, and whilst were still winning, theyre looking more adept at it and we can look a little flat at times and lacking in ideas. Maybe Mendy with his crossing ability will offer that once hes back but we will need to find other ways to win as the season goes on otherwise we will find ourselves in a few games where we just can't break through stubborn defences which almost never happened last season.
Not sure the ball is being moved quick enough at times. It was especially evident in the second half. Raheem and then Mahrez were finding space and making runs down the right. Walker also made a couple of bursts down the wing and was ignored. Both David and Bernardo might have moved the ball a little quicker out to the right side. For those that say Raheem doesn’t have ball control, hope you saw him cushion the ball instantly with his right foot on the wrong side of his left standing foot. He was very dangerous today albeit he like others played within themselves. Fern gave the ball away a little too much. Professional performance but other than the goals, I really didn’t think we hit top gear.
 
Spanish Dave outstanding. Laporte and Zin has good games too. Raheem was once again top class. Mahrez underwhelms me. He should be busting a gut to impress when he gets on but he seems to just go through the motions. Jesus needs replacing.

When the fuck is Ferna gonna get a rest ? I fear for him next week.
