All goals are important
Salah comes back and we get absolutely destroyed down his flank. Salah needs to be doing more on the ball, or he has to do more off the ball. He'd be eating up this gamestate in the past but he's just not as fast anymore.
More and more common, you can only judge it on the last few but he needs to do better defensively. He is all over the place and getting caught diving in at times.
It's such a simplistic view. Braders, Szbo and Quansah are being caught time and time again. It's nothing to do with Salah. Have you been watching this half? Would you rather have Gakpo there anyway?
That's why I think it's strange that we didnt sign a backup for Salah.
I feel for Darwin. Ignored in the box by Bradley and especially Mo when he’d position himself very well.
Mo can be as greedy as he wants if we’re a couple of goals in front but for fucks sake pass the ball when someone’s in a better position in the box instead of going for super goals.

it's not Salah's fault Bradders and Quansah being caught not being able do basic defending. I heard some good one here but this is scape boating.
Bradders doesn't look confident defending at times today, he is leaving the ball often when it needs to be delt with and when it comes down side, often falling away and being done on the inside even when is close enough.
Quansah is turning inside everytime he has the ball rather than playing it forward and Brighton are leaving him alone to do it cause he is do predictable today.
We were never going to sign a backup for salah unless it was a 17 year old. He's untouchable, so having alternatives is pointless.
Yeah, I can't argue with that, but it's a problem.
He’s so insanely poor. His constant diddling about to make up his mind about blowing his whiste must be a nightmare as a player.
Such a shit ref with a sorry I’m here today attitude.
Darwin just hasn’t been good enough so far other than almost scoring from an improvised finish (not helped by Salah playing like a crack head). He’s usually far more active than this, so expecting a much more threatening 2nd half from him.
Nah, he'll score after having 27 chances or something.
What does Salah's poor decision making, passing and finishing to do with Bradders and Quansah?
I don't think it's the only factor at all, but it makes things harder on everyone else when Salah plays, and it used to be that his pace alone kept their wide players honest, which relieved some of the pressure his average position imposed. So, he could cut in more, and he could cheat really high, and he could not track back, and when we stupidly lost the ball, their entire flank was less advanced.
Whoever is playing at fullback when we play like this will be exposed time after time. I don't see the point focusing on that symptom.
Bradley is being asked to do an insane amount of very difficult defending. I think he's been doing well, but I don't think that's sound team play.
What does Salah have to do with poor defending down the right side I could ask you.
Salah's been well off it but still had a hand in the goal though so let's see next half. But I ask again, whom would you have started if it wasn't for Mo?
