KetsbaiaIsBald Posted September 2, 2023 Share Posted September 2, 2023 Really fucking infuriating this. We’ve all been chomping at the bit since the Liverpool game and then we have that 45 minutes. We need to let loose and play some fukcing football. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dyeyzzon Posted September 2, 2023 Share Posted September 2, 2023 Either one of Tonali or Bruno has to drop deep, and the other push forward. I'd prefer Bruno to reprise his 1st season role when he scored for fun as a #8 than a #6. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Joelinton tends to clatter people though, part of the fact he wasn’t originally a midfielder. There’s little guile in winning the ball, just monsters into players.

Away Toon Posted September 2, 2023 Share Posted September 2, 2023 Brighton have a very clear way of playing and stick to it for better or worse. We have lost our identity and apparently regressed since last season. Only 1-0 so there is hope. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Gawalls Posted September 2, 2023 Share Posted September 2, 2023 I have all my Leicester, Man U and family Sunderland’s supporters texting me asking “what’s happened to you this season?” So it’s not just us overreacting on here I reckon either Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

TheInfiniteOdyssey Posted September 2, 2023 Share Posted September 2, 2023 Massive error to not bring in a proper DM this window. Midfield doesn’t look right and more concerning is that we don’t seem able to adapt. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Geordie Ahmed Posted September 2, 2023 Share Posted September 2, 2023 We just seem so flat Also, too many times they pass the ball straight through our 3 midfielders One of them needs to sit Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
KaKa Posted September 2, 2023 Share Posted September 2, 2023 Tonali sees the game in a completely different way to the rest of the team. Plays with so much more urgency and tempo, and no one else is alert enough to it. Until they get used to playing with him it's going to be very hit and miss.

Stifler Posted September 2, 2023 Share Posted September 2, 2023 Just now, Paulinho said: The midfield three with no designated DM was always a stupid fucking idea. All of them are arguably more defensive minded than offensive, and not one of them is going to their man. You have Isak pressing on his own centrally, and a couple of times we have had Gordon and Tonali press on the wings, but that’s it. Absolutely pathetic that for 30 minutes when we did get the ball we just hoofed back to their defensive line. Take that step to get space around your marker, get the player off the ball to come in around him, do simple triangles. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Painfully clear that he needs to come deep to provide an option against their press but he's nowhere to be seen half the time. Couldn't believe he didn't pull the trigger on the two occasions he was in the box running at their defenders Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

buzza Posted September 2, 2023 Share Posted September 2, 2023 Mistake by Pope for their goal, otherwise we have looked reasonable, nothing more, even with them dominating. Mind you we havent really threatened them at all and look a bit passive. Their defense seem to able to pick their passes and then we are backtracking pretty quick. Pedro, the young irish lad and mitoma all look very good, solly as well. They are playing very well, have to give them their due. Lets see what we do in the second half, Bruno has been better today at least that is a positive, isak too... Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
