Teslact Posted August 26, 2023 Share Posted August 26, 2023 6 minutes ago, Viana said: Brighton in for a long old season I think. They've got more games to play and teams will have sussed what stifles them at home - a deep defensive line, and trying to isolate your strongest and their weakest in one on one battles like that Antonio goal. The latter is basically how we battered them 4-1 last season. They'll play better than this this season, but the media love-in as they beat Luton and Wolves was ridiculous like.

Super Duper Branko Strupar Posted August 26, 2023 Share Posted August 26, 2023 So is Lamptey so far down the pecking order now? Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Conjo Posted August 26, 2023 Share Posted August 26, 2023 From his Everton days Moyes did seem to follow a poor season up by a good one. Looks like he's copying the same pattern for Wham. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kanji Posted August 26, 2023 Share Posted August 26, 2023 Maybe the odd Brighton lovers will take notice of this. A proper fucking beat down. Bowen as our right wide forward would be epic. Quite like Antonio, more so after listening to him and Cal on their pod Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Prophet Posted August 26, 2023 Share Posted August 26, 2023 De Zerbi hadn't changed so much since his Sussuolo days, his sides are really fun though. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Erikse Posted August 26, 2023 Share Posted August 26, 2023 Many have been overhyping Brighton. I'm guessing top 10, but don't think they will do top 6 again at all. If people are downplaying us due to Europe, they shouldn't overhype Brighton with that squad playing in Europe. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
toon25 Posted August 26, 2023 Share Posted August 26, 2023 West Ham's keeper has played really well tonight. Solid. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

No that's fair, but that could be the path to a 1-0 win for a lesser side. My point is more, everyone was willing to hail De Zerbi as the next elite coach, but in reality, this season was going to present a lot of new challenges that he hasn't faced before. That's why I wanted to see what, if any, tweaks he'd make to his system to make it more robust tactically. It would appear he's just running it back, which may well work against the bottom bunch who lack quality, but West Ham have that quality and they've shown a lot of teams how to approach a trip to Brighton.

jackyboy Posted August 26, 2023 Share Posted August 26, 2023 Imagine being a decent player, playing for West Ham and having Moyes and Nolan telling you what to do. I think I'd just go over and punch their lights out. A real pair of soul less bastards Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
David Edgar Posted August 26, 2023 Share Posted August 26, 2023 Brighton reverting to low XG pop shots from way out now. Should just stick to their guns and work those chances in the box. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Just one game man. Moyes is good at this sort of rigid setup to stifle teams, and has some really good defensive players. Brighton will still have their way with lots of teams.

The Prophet Posted August 26, 2023 Share Posted August 26, 2023 The thing about Brighton is they punch well above their weight for a club of their size and finance. They're also really fun to watch. De Zerbi might be getting a bit too much hype at the moment, but he's still done a cracking job to date. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
