Watching Cucurella struggle at Chelsea made me remember my aversion to signing players from exceptionally well-run clubs – chances are in a team like Brighton most players look better than they actually are. There are exceptions of course – I think Caicedo is a cracking player and will be just as good if not better elsewhere – but let's cool off with the talk of signing the likes of Estupinian or spunking £80M on MacAllister; they look good precisely because the system makes them look good.
And don’t deploy a plodding geriatric midfield to play against them.How to beat Brighton, don't stand about in awe of their passing!
I'm not sure about that.Estupinan's performance today reminded me of @rurikbird's post from a few week's ago:

Maybe we avoid their calls for a bitmac allister calling his agent right after the game
Would usually like this post but I'm so fucking livid.Comebacks on
He and his agent can both get to fuck....As can the whole of Brighton.mac allister calling his agent right after the game
I think there's a shot that Leeds AND Leicester go down, mate... I can't see where either gets any more than maybe one point each in their remaining three matches, whereas I think there might be four points left in Forest yet (starting today).Leeds, Leicester or Everton. Who will get relegated? Everton were the frontrunner until that win today.
2 from those 3 are defo going, right?Leeds, Leicester or Everton. Who will get relegated? Everton were the frontrunner until that win today.
I like that Alcaraz chap.
All games today have been goals galore.
Giving a penalty for this kicking someone's foot whilst trying to kick the ball is just another notch on why I fucking hate this game now. WHAT COMPLETE FUCKING NONSENSE.
Didn't we concede 7 or so to Villa a few seasons ago 😉Imagine conceding over 10% of the opposition's goals for that season
