Stifler Posted May 14, 2023 Share Posted May 14, 2023 Brighton can give anyone a game, but they can also let anyone else have a game against them. We have learnt nothing new today. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

TK-421 Posted May 14, 2023 Share Posted May 14, 2023 Brighton, such an odd side. Guess we don't know which side will turn up. Beat Wolves 6-0, lose to Everton 5-1, beat Arsenal 3-0. Â Lets hope for a bit of help/luck from Leicester tomorrow too, and then hope we are on our game thursday night. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Wolfcastle Posted May 14, 2023 Share Posted May 14, 2023 Its reasonable just to say their Everton loss was a freak flash in the pan given every other game in their season Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Decky Posted May 14, 2023 Share Posted May 14, 2023 I think today was a good result for us. I couldn't see Brighton losing three in a row. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Prophet Posted May 14, 2023 Share Posted May 14, 2023 Their last five is some form like. Thumped Wolves, beat Man United and Arsenal, but comfortably turned over by Forest and Everton. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

madras Posted May 14, 2023 Share Posted May 14, 2023 48 minutes ago, SUPERTOON said: Gordon’s work rate has been non existent tbh, no way he starts imo. Can’t see Maxi simply because our fullbacks need as much protection as possible and he won’t provide it. I acknowledge that re the full back but I'd risk it to get the best our of Isak and all season we've played that gamble when pressing that well bet our defending against your forwards. Also I've noticed Brighton sticking it through the middle a bit recently (V Man Utd and one other I can't remember, didn't see today's game) where the centre halves or deep mid slides it on the deck to a forward coming off the centre halves and simply laying it off to one side for an oncoming support player, so simple yet effective.  FWIW I thi k Eddie will go 433 as usual anyway.

Nine Posted May 14, 2023 Share Posted May 14, 2023 (edited) If we try and press them like Arsenal did they will use it to their advantage like they did today. They play it out from the back but are so deep they draw the press high enough that it leaves a massive open space between our midfield and back line which is usually exploited by a long ball creating a 4v4 situation. They are truly beating the press meta right now, we will have to adjust our shape and/or style. Edited May 14, 2023 by Nine Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kanji Posted May 14, 2023 Share Posted May 14, 2023 Brighton playing well today means nothing to me in terms of Thursday. We want to be a competitive top end team we need to win the pressure is on. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pata Posted May 14, 2023 Share Posted May 14, 2023 I would start Isak and ASM, they are much better players than the ones who scored five on the counter for Everton. Need a big game from Willock and whoever is on the right too. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Stifler Posted May 14, 2023 Share Posted May 14, 2023 Leicester win tomorrow and a win would guarantee us 4th. These are beatable as shown. I got called out for panicking yesterday, you should all for today. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

If we get exposed multiple times in 1 vs 1s we’ll lose. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
