Wykiki being the voice of reason and now CT using metaphors to accurately describe the current tactical issues…. WHAT THE FUCK IS GOING ON ?!?

Aye. The point is amazing but we definitely aren’t the same force as we were last season. Whether that’s personnel or fitness..I don’t know. I have faith Eddie will get us back on track. I can count on one hand how many games we didn’t deserve to get anything out of last season. I think we are close to that mark already this season.

There is a certain beauty about, none other than Wykiki telling the forum to chill.

Gordon isn’t much improvement on the rest of the wingers. He is basically just quick. I don’t like his positional play but Howe can sort that out. I think that’s why he didn’t trust him last season. I hope Barnes starts getting a chance as he is the only winger that will rack goal involvements. Depending on the game I’d more likely start Big Joe and Willock on our left side though.

Nah. If you had of told me when we were staring down the barrel at championship football with a shit squad, that in less than 2 years we’d be getting a point at the san Siro in the Champions League I would called you a clown.

I thought burn was excellent defensively. The whole back 4 were really. They are just getting over run from midfield.

Great point but i echo the sentiments that we look a different team to last year. I think it’s the midfield lacking intensity and player positioning. We are getting cut up to easily (even villa could have had 3) and not creating anything. It could have easily been 4 or 5 nil tonight. Hopefully eddie has the answers. And hopefully Big and Little Joe are back soon.

Knife through butter this stuff this.

I only let her go balls low.

I went away for a filthy weekend away in Lisbon with some bird a few years back. Decided to have the steak tartare on the first night then spent the rest of the weekend shitting and puking. Managed to get a blowey though.

Mrs McGroin is working tonight so Im bathing mine at half time then bed when it finishes. The little cunts better not ruin this for me.

Glad you mentioned it. It though it was 6:45.

Tubby Mong. Perfect.

Man Utd is the is the perfect game for Brighton. The team think they are better than they are. Eriksen, Fernandes and Rashford etc won’t chase you down. No intensity. lovely to see.

Stick to the threesome with Wykiki moaning about Southgate in the corner while trying to get hard.

probably because he has been telling everyone the story religiously for 50 f-u-c-k-i-n-g years.

Aye. And can play CB.

I’ve never slagged a player off at match (I think the most I’ve ever done was sigh at Warren Barton - who was absolute shite) but I’m allowed an opinion. Obviously he does have a lot of room for improvement and if he can work on his end product then we’ll have a player on our hands. But he doesn’t look natural finisher like Barnes does. Seems like a decent lad as well.

I think Isak will start this one along with Tonali (for Anderson), Almiron for Barnes with Gordon back on left. Personally I’d play Barnes over Gordon. I just think you’ll get more end product from him.

I agree with a lot of that. We aren’t pressing like we did last year and the patterns of play just aren’t there. Very disjointed but hopefully it was just nervousness. Also agree about Gordon. Looked good in flashes but not sure he’ll ever have much end product and will be much like Almiron.

Not until that that music plays and the camera goes past Dan Burn in the line up. Then I’ll believe.

According to Goodman (who sounds like they have access to var discussion) said the refs never even mentioned the head and were discussing “proximity”.

The handball rules are a joke. I’m not even sure the officials know.

look at the size of Halls legs, man.

We are getting schooled so far. Only one winner if this continues.
