Tiresias

71% possession for Brighton

They are just passing at will, we have no intensity

We are making them look like barcalona

what a finish

Absolute cracker today David Squires on … a famous day for the Rebel Alliance, Norwich branch https://www.theguardian.com/football/ng-interactive/2019/sep/17/david-squires-on-a-famous-day-for-the-rebel-alliance-norwich-branch?CMP=Share_AndroidApp_Copy_to_clipboard

Yea as soon as the real madrid move didnt happen the world moved on, he has dropped off in form quite considerably and isn't able to play how most champions league clubs want.

He's obviously a great manager and what manager would ever say no to being allowed to buy any player they want. Yes maybe better managers with better success rate in champions league of course but most managers lose occaisionally in the league to the norwich's of the world. He is one of the few managers to have had a dramatic effect on tactics accross multiple leagues. Is he best ever? Of course not. Would it be more impressive if he did it with Whitley Bay? Of course. Does that invalidate everything about him? No. He's a fine manager, and there are other fine managers, and yes there probably is a bit of silly fluff to him cos he's a bit cool and hipstery which shouldnt affect judgement of him though it will, but who wants all managers the same?

Awful from dubs

Did it create a twat singularity that sucked them all in never to be seen again? Please?

We didn't really get relegated, in real terms,

All the talk about why man u are rubbish seems to dance around that the players just aren't that good. It's bloated, unbalanced and even the players with talent don't fit well in it. Not to absolve ogs of any responsibility but it's such a meh team.

Fair play that goal from vardy is great

Guardiola saying how much he enjoyed how Brighton played is a bit of an indictment tbh, yeah they could have scored once or twice but got demolished. Theres bravery and then there's sillyness. Rafa got it right, Pep probably loathed watching that game we won against them.

I don't buy this 'if he was that good he wouldn't be here' bollocks, plenty of shit defenders at top clubs and good ones at others. Having said that he maybe gives away too many fouls and isn't teh quickest? However I think he's class.

As if his replacements wont also get injured I can see both sides, I like ritchie and he can provide great deliveries, but he is also way too slow

Fair enough team remembered how to defend, spurs were pap

Mike Dean trying to rescue spurs there

Dropping like flies from injuries

Bruce finally found an old Rafa defensive drills folder on the shelf

Longstaff is nicely positive when he gets some possession

Happy for the lad to be fair, but spurs are awful

Oh my that was some next level awful corner routine

Why are you talking about formations? Noone will have a clue where they're playing anyway

Will he or Bruce get sacked first?

Ever since he dithered over pushing for a deal to go to Real Madrid and they went with Courtois instead he has been poor. I think he has been last of the very good shot stoppers but looks fairly old fashioned now. He has also had to deal with a pretty rubbish defence against him forever now.
