Guest Posted December 30, 2017 Share Posted December 30, 2017 Question for the Rafa haters.......given our spend in the Summer, and the 'quality' of our squad, where did you expect us to finish in the league this season? I did expect us to be around the bottom 6 granted but its the nature of the tactics and performances that is the main gripe and dislike of the situation. Wagner and Hughton at least have a go at teams. Its as if we are s*** scared of the teams in this division Eh? Brighton were set up to defend against us and hit on the break.

Guest ElCid Posted December 30, 2017 Share Posted December 30, 2017 Did you see how Brighton set up today? Like f*** is Hughton "having a go" at teams this season. They’re the away team you expect that though. You don’t expect that from the home team but we are every single time. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest neesy111 Posted December 30, 2017 Share Posted December 30, 2017 Brighton were set-up exactly how I thought they would. Shouldn't have been a surprise at all to us. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

If teams sit back, like Brighton did today, they've got the beating of us because, you guessed it, our players aren't good enough. Attack us and we have more of a chance.

Tsunami Posted December 30, 2017 Share Posted December 30, 2017 Did you see how Brighton set up today? Like f*** is Hughton "having a go" at teams this season. Brighton were more progressive than us in the first half and must have had more possesion than us. We got deeper and deeper as the first half went on.

Have struggled past Watford at home 1-0 and Burnley 0-0 in recent weeks. Must've "had a go" at Liverpool though, seeing as they got dicked 1-5.

The 1-1 with Soton maybe? Ah no it'll be the 1-1 with Everton and if not that, surely the 2-2 with Stoke. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Brighton 0-2 Man City Match Report http://www.bbc.co.uk/sport/football/40835422 Cautious Brighton unable to shine A rousing atmosphere greeted the Brighton players at a packed stadium but Chris Hughton's side, which included five new signings, had little opportunity to show what they could do. It was just their discipline and work-rate on show for the first hour or so, when they often had 10 men behind the ball. Up front, Tomer Hemed and Pascal Gross had a thankless task of chasing and harrying, without a sight of goal. That second-half spell, when City wobbled but held out under pressure, brought an amazing response from the home fans and perhaps demonstrated what might have been possible had Brighton showed more ambition on their big day against a side playing a new system. Chris Hughton's cautious approach came within 20 minutes of earning a point against a team with much greater talent and resources but could not quite get the job done - in the end, it was City who did that. If ever there's was a time to 'have a go' it's after the new promotion bounce against a newly assembled team in a new system...we had an excuse in that we were trying to stop a team who'd been thumping everyone left, right & centre.

tinoasprilla Posted December 30, 2017 Share Posted December 30, 2017 today Brighton had more possesion, more corners and more shots on target. And sod brighton or Hughton i dont care about them.

Parsley Posted December 30, 2017 Share Posted December 30, 2017 Did you see how Brighton set up today? Like f*** is Hughton "having a go" at teams this season. Brighton were more progressive than us in the first half and must have had more possesion than us. We got deeper and deeper as the first half went on. Define 'progressive'. They kept the ball nicely but created nothing through open play. As poor as we were going forward, we had the better of the chances in either half.
