Gallowgate Toon Posted September 24, 2017 Share Posted September 24, 2017 Still averaging 1.5 points per game this season, that'll do. Amazed we've got 9 given what we did this summer. As for the game itself I thought there was nothing to split them really, draw would've been fair enough. Gives Rafa some things to ponder for Liverpool. Long-term we have to be looking at introducing Shelvey for Hayden and thinking about a different combination up front. Yeah, I'm not feeling Hayden at this level yet. Doesn't deserve to start the next one, IMO. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hanshithispantz Posted September 24, 2017 Share Posted September 24, 2017 It's just so fucking frustrating having basically no attack like. Wouldn't be surprised if Shelvey and Gayle start from now on. EDIT: Not Shelvey behind Gayle, just the 2 of them starting. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
2Ameobis Posted September 24, 2017 Share Posted September 24, 2017 Done by an average team with a set piece. The worst kind of defeat. Literally no positives whatsoever. Utter utter utter sh*te Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mole_Toonfan Posted September 24, 2017 Share Posted September 24, 2017 I expected that tbh, we struggle to break teams down and i don't find it a coincidence that the worst two performances this season have came against teams who also got promoted. Not particularly concerned though as i feel this scenario won't come up all too much. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
The College Dropout Posted September 24, 2017 Share Posted September 24, 2017 Long-term we have to be looking at introducing Shelvey for Hayden and thinking about a different combination up front. I struggle with this line of thinking. Shelvey can't cover ground well enough in the PL for Merino to end up doing his donkey work. Sure it's worth a try at some point but I don't see it working. I don't see Shelvey as a core part of a functioning PL team consistently. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest ElCid Posted September 24, 2017 Share Posted September 24, 2017 That was s*** and worrying being beat by the two teams who came up with us and who we need to finish above and the lack of quality up front is going to bite us on the arse. We look absolutely toothless and there is not enough goals in the team. Going to be a long hard season Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dave Posted September 24, 2017 Share Posted September 24, 2017 Well that was annoying. Never really got going, and only some terrible defending from a set piece cost us a point because for all their possession they never did much else. A point dropped there.

bulivye Posted September 24, 2017 Share Posted September 24, 2017 game of desire vs complacency & hustle vs dawdle. atsu has no football brain. hayden was on the pitch...wasn't he? perez not at the races. mbemba seemed sluggish... Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
DJ_NUFC Posted September 24, 2017 Share Posted September 24, 2017 Not good enough. Had chances, didn't take them, stupid mistake from Lascelles cost us a needless goal. Thought Rafa made a really poor choice in keeping Perez on. He was having a poor second half, slowing everything down, and it totally allowed Brighton to sit deep and nullify Gayle without a focal point around him. Joselu will get stick for the last 2 games but that's still too small a sample size to judge. He wasn't in the game enough is my biggest criticism. It was a Clark foul wasn't it?

joeyt Posted September 24, 2017 Share Posted September 24, 2017 Would be really interesting to see just Merino and Shelvey start together in midfield but don't think the next game is the right one to do it Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
St1pe Posted September 24, 2017 Share Posted September 24, 2017 Close game but thought Brighton deserved their win. Both sides should have took their chances but didn't in the 1st half then we were absolutely garbage for the first 20 minutes of the second. I was hoping to see Merino and Shelvey play together at some point but even with Brighton sitting back that doesn't really look like a partnership that would work even though Shelvey looked bright when he came on. I thought we were going to equalise when he got behind their defence and attempted to square it. A slight positive from that was how we still tried to pass the ball and play within the last few minutes of the game in previous years we've just hopelessly punted balls forward.

Amir_9 Posted September 24, 2017 Share Posted September 24, 2017 Annoying. With a half decent striker could have really got something today. The only thing that was clinical was that Joselu missed sitter depressing me clinically. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
