Outfought and outplayed. No excuse.

A 0/10 performance so far and they should all be read the riot act at HT.
slot needs to be bringing jones on for macca as a fucking starting point. but by the looks of it he'll have to bring on quansah for ibou. He might be reluctant to double sub
 
I watched Frimpong last night, then I watch this shit from Trent and I just feel sad. Trent is nowhere near his level. Don’t even think Trent’s better than Brighton’s back up RB. Played like an absolute clown for the last 2 years.
 
Slot needs to put a rocket up their arses at half time.

Performance stinks
Yeah generally we've been good this season but this is that one game where you feel the "we should have bought a proper defensive midfielder" voices get louder.

We have been out thought, out muscled out paced in midfield so far. I really haven't noticed McAllister, Slobbo or Gravey apart when they are picking themselves off the floor or making sloppy passes.
 
Results have been covering some average performances for a while so it's no real surprise to see us coming unstuck. If we are shite with the ball then we don't have the intense press to fall back on and cause the opposition to make mistakes. If you look at the chances then we're fortunate and in Kellehers debt to be still in the game. Brighton could be two or three clear on another day.

The good thing is Slot and the players do respond well after HT. Plenty of football left to play.

Hopefully Konate comes back out.
 
It looks bad Ibou is using his shirt to support his arm. Will be interesting to see who Slot prefers Q or Gomez.

I say get Diaz on pronto and sub Szobo or Macca for Jones.
Nothing is going on upfront

Gakpo and Nunez haven't done anything wrong per se. And Salah is Salah.

Diaz for gakkers around the 70th I reckon

Biggest issue is the ghost of a midfield

Right now Trent to Real almost looks Like a steal for us. Get the money and invest in a new Right Back...
Can see Slot Subbing him for Gomez
 
Gravy escaping any kind of mention?

I think there has been an (expected) leveling off in his performances in recent weeks and today he’s lost at sea.

Young, learning etc but let’s call a spade a spade.
You have to give Brighton credit there - they know how dangerous he is for us and they've been all over him whenever he gets the ball, which is rarely because when they press they are cutting out the lines to Gravy.
 
Darwin's been bright, mostly. And thank goodness for Our Kev in nets... The rest of them are diabolical.

And Trent can fuck off to Madrid now, if THAT'S the kind of effort we're gonna see from him for the rest of the season. I really, really don't like him anymore - He thinks he's fucking untouchable, and I'm sick of it.

Get Bradley on, get Jones on (for Szobo), have Diaz ready to go if Gakpo or Mo remain this silent, and let's get into them this half. Only reason I have any hope at all is because it should already be long over.
 
Change of shape with Trent in midfield because he can’t be bothered running back with Mitoma

Just take the stupid cunt off.

And that melee could have resulted in a goal for us and so could Nunez's run and shot. This is a bit like commentators saying team x or y could be up by one or two against us whilst having a brain wipe for what has happened at the other end.
