What I do think Howe sees in him is that he is probably the only winger we have that can get down to the line and try to get the ball in. We desperatly need new wingers.. Just noticed Fraser was injured today so we lacked options, but I honestly think even Ritchie could contribute more, he at least has a better delivery.

Cattletrucked Posted August 13, 2022 Share Posted August 13, 2022 I’ll take that point all day at Brighton…played well in patches, wasted some great opportunities but the final ball was shit mostly. Good defending on the whole and Pope looks solid. Wtf was wrong with Wilson’s goal…different game if that was allowed! Anyway I’m happy with a point…hard place to go to and they battered Man U last week …onwards and upwards. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

ponsaelius Posted August 13, 2022 Share Posted August 13, 2022 Definitely agree about the kits. And the sun. Watching on TV admittedly on a crappy stream I thought it was really hard to tell who the fuck was who. There was loads of sloppy passes in more instinctive and transitional elements of the game - from both teams. The passing moves that are more hard-wired by the coaching and tactical set-up were less affected by this. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

gazza ladra Posted August 13, 2022 Share Posted August 13, 2022 I don’t know why, but two off the line clearances and I never lost confidence. It didn’t feel panicky. At least not to me. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
HaydnNUFC Posted August 13, 2022 Share Posted August 13, 2022 3 minutes ago, pubteam said: Brighton's substitutions improved them massively, ours seemed to make us worse. Strength in depth is our achilles heel, basically all of our subs will do that. Desperate for an injection of quality in the final third which hopefully we sort out in the coming fortnight.

frankpingel Posted August 13, 2022 Share Posted August 13, 2022 Didn't enjoy watching that. Good point but overall we're fortunate to leave equal. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
et tu brute Posted August 13, 2022 Share Posted August 13, 2022 Over to the owners now, don't waste a massive opportunity (this performance might actually give the green light). I'm still pretty confident we will see at least two in before the window ends. Point away to Brighton is certainly a decent result, but the glaring insufficiencies was there for all to see, especially second half. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Fair comment, but given the conditions I was imagining we might have had 4 out of 5 subs on by the 70 minute mark, rather than token subs at the end of the game.

Hopefully just a bit of a dip. Literally my favourite player at the club. He's tactically and technically an outstanding footballer but there's a small hint that a physical decline is incoming. Agree that it's a little bit of a worry. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

midds Posted August 13, 2022 Share Posted August 13, 2022 Didn't watch it today but it sounds like we have just ground out a very decent point away to a very good Brighton team. I'd have settled for it before the game and we've now got 4 from 2 games with 2 clean sheets, it sets us up for the difficult games against City and Liverpool.

MrRaspberryJam Posted August 13, 2022 Share Posted August 13, 2022 Would have took a point before KO, definitely happier with a point after that performance. Could have got all 3pts if we took a bit more care in the final 3rd. Never mind, by this time next week we'll likely have won 1, lost 1 and drawn 1. A decent start with a couple of clean sheets chucked in. Hopefully Ashworth in the crowd realises we can be a bit toothless going forward and reinforcements are needed rather sharpish.

54 Posted August 13, 2022 Share Posted August 13, 2022 Don't actually think there is much to gleem from today other then "we weren't at the races", we still had some decent intricate attacking play at times but our passing was just a yard or two short, and still pressed well at times but when we did it seemed to exert us so we started to sit back, although generally I think we defended well, so there is nothing wrong structurally with the way we play, I just think it was just a bad day at the office, with several of our key players having stinkers, Bruno and Trippier in particular who tend to be our best players in possession couldn't thread a pass today. So don't think its worth worrying too much at this point, though we need attacking options as Murphy is just pap, today would have actually been the sort of game Miggy would have made a great impact from the bench.

Scoot Posted August 13, 2022 Share Posted August 13, 2022 Not the greatest performance but I'll take the point all day long. We're not going to play well every single game and people need to realise that especially against sides like Brighton away. That still applies if/when we add a couple more attacking players.
