st albans fox Posted 2 October 2021 Share Posted 2 October 2021 Potter had brighton playing possession for the sake of it in the past. They used to over pass it around and repeatedly put themselves under pressure, much like we seem to be now. seems that now they now have a plan to get up the pitch and put the opposition under pressure rather than themselves ….

Particularly enjoyed 'Joelinton is playing really well on the left, that's where I scouted him, always knew he was good there'.... why did you play him as a number 9 for two years then you cretin 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

This is what I can't understand about us at the moment. People say our back line is depleted through injury - which it is - so why do we put them under pressure by pissing about at the back? It seems like madness to me. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Seriously. I’m certain one of the main qualifying characteristics of a red card offence is endangering the safety of the opposition player; how is this not doing that? I’m still fuming about that Ederson one on Iheanacho tbh. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Facecloth Posted 2 October 2021 Share Posted 2 October 2021 Just seen the disallowed Kabasele goal for Watford. I'm at a loss as to what he's meant to have done wrong. He's clearly pulled the ground by the defender, keeper drops the ball, it hits Kabasele and rolls into the net. No other option but goal surely 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I live in Brighton, and people are very happy about it - they are entertained despite the lack of a goal scorer. Imagine if they had a Vardy.

Exactly right. JWP had to go for the ball yesterday but he got it wrong and paid the price. Goalkeepers should be no different, if anything the risk of serious injury is far higher with a punch to the head than a kick to the leg. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Perhaps not use his fist and palm it away or not try to get it if he's not confident of catching it. Pretty much the same rules as a player going into a tackle, players get booked/set off for excessive tackles even if they get the ball. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Pretty much the same rules as a player going into a tackle, players get booked/set off for excessive tackles even if they get the ball. The game needs an adjustment on law interpretation re goalkeeping. I’ve played there. The message is if you’re coming off your line then make sure you get to the ball. And just in case you don’t, make sure you take everyone out who gets in your way. I can’t see that this message has changed over the decades. the rest of the game ref contact has. someone needs to get it sorted. as our keeper never comes off his line, it will be better for us! 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Corky Posted 3 October 2021 Share Posted 3 October 2021 14 hours ago, StanSP said: We don't have to sign or have 'missed' every player that might have played well or be in a decent patch of form. We signed Bertrand on a free, already have Thomas, Justin and Castagne who can play there. Maybe we didn't want to actually spend money on a LB? We're just in a spell where everything we do is wrong and everyone else is doing things right according to our fans. We sign the wrong players, others sign the right ones. We should've kept ones we let go, kept ones we should've got rid of (until they score a couple of goals at their new clubs and we ask why we let them go). 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Super_horns Posted 3 October 2021 Share Posted 3 October 2021 (edited) Just getting my tin hat out.. Most of our fanbsse will be happy now - a lot wanted him gone. Until we appoint another random name they haven’t heard of. Liverpool up next - easy start for the new man. Then Man City , Chelsea , Arsenal, Man U and you to come .
