Brighton & Hove Albion (A) | PL | Post Match Thread

Teams are no longer afraid of us. They know they can just waltz through us and will have goal opportunities.

Nah, not true. We lost too many players and the ones left to pick from can't play together. It's the same as it was for the last years when Pep put out B teams and mish-mash teams in cups. We looked utterly clueless in most games even then. It was a myth that we always had two top quality teams to pick from. It seems that it's only when we have all our first choice players on the pitch that we can truly play. Any disturbance to the regulars and we fall to pieces.

Lost that fear factor and incapable of controlling games, or even putting in a strong defensive display if teams attack.

What is our defence line? Rico, Walker, the young Simpson!!! What do you expect? Very poor defence line.

Highest paid, and generally considered the best coach ever......Time to step up and prove it, his selections, his tactics, his players bought and sold ;) forget injuries....on paper at the start of the season, this team would still be favourites to win the league.

 

[silvathechihuahua]

I know we’ve got injuries, but what the fuck is going on we’re so easily exposed to the counter it’s fucking ridiculous!

 

[alexmcity]

Agree. Something going on at city. Pep, players & club seem to be off at the minute.

All I can think is 115

Nothing other than injuries and fatigue is going on. Otherwise, we'd be shit in the 1st halves vs Sportong and Brighton. We were good.

Would be difficult to win big trophies this season, too early to write us off, though.

 

[StillBluessinceHydeRoad]

Savinho has to score a goal. Not blaming the lad for the defeat but he has yet to score and had two or three good opportunities in the first half, which had he taken one would probably have won the game for us.

Yes, he's not a finisher and his crosses and other passes into the box are often disappointing. He hasn't settled quite as quickly as some commentators suggest.

 

[Pepmanc]

We will get back to our best eventually

 

[eyalluvitt]

KDB should be in the MLS
Walker should be in Saudi
Pusey should be in the U18s
Gundo should be on the coaching staff
Nunes should be at Wolves

This Brighton side are pretty good,and showed up today where we are lacking.All very competent on the ball,but the big difference today was their physicality,all big,strong players who got stuck in.We looked like the seven dwarves in comparison.Too many old blokes n the team now.

 

[blueabdi]

Sorry to say it, but Pep needs to go, needs to announce he’s moving on at end of season in this international break - deciding to do a 1 year extension is pointless now, we need evolution. He's nearer going than staying and the time has come, imo.

Fuck what did you just say?
He is the right man to fix this, so get behind the team.
