Brighton (A) 26/10: Build-Up & Match Thread

[Elephant Pyjamas]

Semedo has had a good game defensively today

We haven't defended too badly really, we just offer very little elsewhere.

 

[Carsy]

Andre has been ineffective today. Don’t think he’s challenged for a single header

 

[Elephant Pyjamas]

Could that have been a red? He was in without the foul?

Or am i being a little too optimistic?

 

[Del Woppio]

Pretty easy to defend well in a back eight though tbf

 

[jd1981]

Is our aim now just to not lose badly?

 

[Deano]

Yeah there's no praise for teams not carving you open at will when you're playing 8 defensive minded outfield players out of 10.

 

[Tredman]

Is our aim now just to not lose badly?

Seems to be.

 

[Tony Towner]

No, we are having chances. It's pretty open, doubt it ends 1-0

 

[YoungWolf]

No, we are having a go. It's pretty open, doubt it ends 1-0

Having a go is generous I think

 

[The Bear]

We've definitely got the ball forward better and created more opportunities since the subs. Just need something to fall for us in the box.

 

[Tony Towner]

Having a go is generous I think

Yeah, changed it to having chances, because we are.

 

[Elephant Pyjamas]

2 good SL headers this game, but straight at keeper.

At leaast there is a little bit of urgency..

He'll take SL off in a minute no doubt....

 

[The Bear]

Bueno definitely is the man to partner Dawson instead of Toti. Has been solid since he came in for the Liverpool game.

 

[Elephant Pyjamas]

Sarabia delivery has been excellent.

 

[Elephant Pyjamas]

Needed to be a first time lay off from SL to Sarabia there,

 

[The Bear]

Sarabia delivery has been excellent.

I'd have no qulams with him playing regularly off that right side as long as he is switched for R.Gomes if he's having one of his anonymous games.

 

[The Bear]

This is probably our strongest 11 on field right now and gives us the best balance of defence/attack. Needs to continue for the next couple of games at least. The DM will have to rotate soon any way due to suspensions.

 

[The Bear]

JSL a forehead away from a goal there.

 

[Elephant Pyjamas]

JSL a forehead away from a goal there.

Could have had a hat trick today!
