Howay

I just don’t understand where the press has went. We’ve went from this aggressive high pressing quick side to this passive, flat, easy to get at one. No fucking clue why. I never ever want to see Targett play again. If he starts I’m immediately switching off.

Agreed, you’ve bought the lad and he’s had nearly 2 weeks training surely you play him? Baffling decision. I still cannot believe our midfield today though. For the lead up to the third goal Burn did a mental pass which turned the ball over but he was trying to pass to Anderson who inexplicably was stood behind 3 Brighton players. Why the fuck is he stood the other side of 3 players?

Aye, tbf the transfer window was baffling. We spent nearly £100m on two players that seem to be back ups in Livramento and Barnes, it was a transfer window that a team that’s already full of quality and just needed more depth should have rather than one that was screaming out for starters.

Aye I’ve no clue what Howe is doing. The bloke has absurd level of goodwill from me but I really don’t get what we are doing. We’ve abandoned the press and aggression that has got us to where we are and are absolutely no threat. Brighton haven’t even played well today as they’ve not needed to, same as Liverpool really.

We’re shite like. I don’t know why we’ve completely changed how we play, our transfer window didn’t address our needs at all.

The ref should have sent him off

I don’t understand why we don’t press anymore

Fucking hell man, thanks VAR

Fuck sake man, where the fuck is our midfield?

Targett is a shocking player like. Fucking hell.

Aye I almost smashed the tv when the commentator went on about how good the Brighton press was as they won the ball off him again. I could have flew home and closed him down in the time it takes him to get a simple ball out from under him and pass it.

Almiron finally subbed off

Does Targett not fancy playing? Not marking anyone and just jogging about.

We need a Targett off now

We’ve needed a proper 6 since the takeover, I still don’t understand why it hasn’t been a priority. West Ham and Forest bought Alvarez and Sangare who would have both filled a key role for us. We have Bruno and Tonali both trying to get up the pitch and Pedro in acres of space as no one will sit. There’s also no fucking easy ball out from the back, so we end up booting it under pressure right back to Brighton.

I don’t get why Joelinton and Tonali are pushed so far up, we’re struggling to control the midfield when we absolutely shouldn’t be and it’s because we’re stretching our own CM while Brighton are staying as a compact unit.

Our midfield has disappeared tbh

Great kick off that lads, immediately under pressure booted right to their midfielder who is somehow 30 yard clear of everyone

So raking studs down someone’s ankle isn’t a yellow card but a collision is?

Our midfield has been doing a disappearing act today, it’s like they’re not there as an option if the defense but then they’re not there for the second ball out the box

What the fuck is Schar’s problem today?

How is that not a yellow?

Why do we fuck about at the back so much man

It seems like we’ve completely changed how we play and I can’t see why, our wingers are so deep and we’re not pressing teams, it’s leaving Isak isolated and giving teams control.
