He's on surely

Isak !!!!

Tactics are completely wrong. No-one on Palmer and he's got all the time to drop off and link the play through the back line that's higher than Keith Richards in the 70s. Could be a hatful this

And then of course Chelsea score. The high line absolutely useless

So you can foul a player through on goal outside the box and if the ref misses it it's fine ????

Colwill admitted it

VAR !!

No chance "shooooot" was shouted at Tiote for 18 months after the Arsenal game.

Jacksons movement is killing us . Needs one of the midfield to essentially sit on him for a bit

Bullet dodged. Needs the lads to switch on sharpish

Burn and Schar complete miscommunication as to who's picking up who. Twice Burn been done for pushing up too far. We've been awful

Done his groin

Have to say Burn defended magnificently considering he was on a yellow.

Brighton got the luck we didn't. The ref was generally poor (Veitman's dive being one bug example). The players are lacking some belief and confidence. Eddie isn't sure of his best 11 and won't change tactics that aren't quite sparking into life. First half we were easily the better side second half lost our way . Taking Tonali off seemed to make matters worse. It's time to cash in on either Barnes or Gordon ( for me I'd be selling Barnes) and strengthen the first team quality in other areas that are fundamentally lacking. We've payed the price for a poor summer window and dropped 5 points in two games we should have won based on the lions share of the play. Time for everyone to show what they're about. Some very high paid staff and players at the club time to get creative we need a mini rebuild here.

You get games likes this where it just doesn't happen for you. We looked really decent at times first half. That being said some of this is on Howe . Plan A hasn't worked and rather than change it tactically he's just switched personnel.

Our set pieces have been awful all season. Coaching staff need to sort that out .

Crowd need to lift it here. Give it hell for leather for these 15 minutes

As someone who's had recurrent disc problems in my back if a discs gone he won't be doing much of anything for a good while

The Welbeck injury gives us more time to try and equalise and then hopefully win this game

This ref man

Anyone thinking Tonali has been poor needs to lay off the LSD.

It's positioning, Isak plays all over the defensive line not unlike Henry but look at someone like Haaland . His entire game is pretty much a line from the penalty spot with a few yards either side of it . When Isak drifts , Gordon sometimes looks to be more central or Joelinton will run in but it really needs the whole front three to interchange better

Barnes on the right second half . He has enough about him to make it work. Murphy doesn't. It's an old song but we keep having to sing it

It's a bloody shame as the midfield of Joe, Tonali and Bruno looks really really on it for the first time this season.

Ref's having a shocker here . We need Schar and Burn to be more switched on, both are too far forward when we're attacking and too slow to get back
