Have to trust Robins on this. For me at least anyway. I think he's a man of his word and if he thinks the energy levels were down, I believe him.

I am sure he wouldn't have tinkered around with things so much otherwise.

Not sure he could have kept the same team anyway. Didn't he say Sakamoto was carrying a knock the other day?

Ayari is the puzzling one. I just wonder if we had to play him. Or were lent on to do so.

Don't know if it's the case with Brighton but someEPL teams, I think Chelsea in particularly, pick up loanees wages on the proviso they play so many minutes, if they don't the team the players loaned to picks up the tab, could be something like that
There has to be a non footballing reason because he's awful.

To me it just feels like an U18 suddenly thrown into men's football

Yeah, he's got ability, but I keep saying it, too early for him to be in the Championship.

Sakamoto never is capable of playing two games in a week

Why would Brighton want Ayari played now? It was asking for trouble

In agreement with you but start him hopefully he will have the impact in say the first half then take him off.My problem is when players are blowing out their arse ie our midfield sometimes after 60 minutes he make no changes.My pet hate is this pulling every one back for corners.The area becomes more crowded more chance of a shot hitting a stray leg plus no outlet.Leave Allen up then 2 men have to stay back.

Hardly a tinkerman when he stuck with the back three for what looks to be too long

Are we? Ranieri was the original 'tinkerman' and that was down to his constant squad rotation. Read a book and stay off the football part of this forum.

Baffling decision.

We better revert to our previous lineup on Friday.

He ain't worth the time mate. Clueless when it comes to football.
