Match Thread | Brighton vs. Manchester City (31/08/25)

[FogBlueInSanFran]

We've been utterly shite this half.

I thought we were okay up til their subs. After that, awful.

 

[Alexia_Ko]

Draw this and we will have played the exact same results as United who we all consider to be wank

 

[Bluesince1979]

I’ll get pelters for this but is Pep living on past glory’s unable to change the way his team plays similar to the govan piss pot at our neighbours in his later years,all teams now just wait for our team to make a mistake and profit from it,once again possession wins nothing goals do

I asked last week when we start questioning pep. Of course i got all sorts of abuse.
I honestly think his “way” has moved on and hes been left behind. It happens. Its happened to all the best coaches.

Weve been dross for 2 full seasons and thos season looks no different

 

[lonestay]

Ref will give a pen no for holding in the box

 

[wolviedinho]

This simply isn't working anymore.

If anything it's getting worse.

Needs called upon now.

Its time to make the big calls.

This system is dead.

Something has to give? Another season like last is completely unacceptable after the spend.

 

[homerdog]

Lino gave that corner because the Brighton players squealed at him!

 

[dubblue]

so far 4 points out of a possible 9 as it stands isn’t good enough

It’s nowhere near good enough. Our room for error will be non existent in 6 weeks time.

 

[M Gaudino]

whatever we do DONT FUCKING LOSE

tooo many games last year thrown away where a point is quickly forgotten. a loss is disastrous to morale

 

[paulsimpson]

Anyone see us winning this?

Football is a funny old game

 

[Claytop]

Loves a block does Dias

 

[Paul1970]

Fucking dire again, people will trot the usual shit out about stats blah blah, the footy is the same absolute crap we watched all last season. Well and truely no longer the top dogs of the PL. Champs League will be a shitshow as well no doubt.

This ain’t changing until pep walks away mate

 

[Marklr]

We've no desire. The mental attitude is all wrong.

 

[Dobsy]

Just waiting for the Brighton winner. We've not responded at all

 

[paulchapo]

3-0 West Ham.

 

[balotelli's back pocket]

Every manager seems to have Peps number nowadays…..we’re just so predictable with no Plan A,B or C

You think the system is the issue? We should have been home and dry after an hour.

Once again, stupid individual mistakes by a player who isn't up to the level.

The fact he's still here is a joke.

 

[theholysmurf]

We were bobbins when we first moved to the Etihad, that second half of the season under Pearce was excruciatingly bad.

Don’t remind me

 

[Beanhead]

Wow Trafford.

 

[Bluemoonie92]

What the fuck do we do in training, a year of dross and nothing seems to change

 

[eyalluvitt]

Top teams are relentless and go for the win, we just shrug our shoulders and accept our fate

 

[Kippax Street 1880]

Well in Trafford big save that
