Their raging we're winning, just laugh at them.

*They're

Not sure of Wright is right choice. Him and BTA been a bit anonymous

Like most games, and then they score a couple

 

[shmmeee]

We’re lucking we’re fucking deadly and have England’s number one. Bidwell looking so far out of his depth Pamela Anderson is running down the touch line.

 

[skybluecam]

Given that we’re winning it’s not been great. Lampard’s earnt his wages if we see it out.

 

[Sky Blue Pete]

We’ve been passive
Saka really great and Rushworth doing what Rushworth does
I hope we perk up second half it’s too stressful

 

[Brighton Sky Blue]

Also it’s the formation more than the players. They’ve got an extra man in there. Three very experienced CMs at this level. That’s why our forwards need to do more to hurt them when we do get it

Well that’s my point, we’re doing this only because we’re down to two central midfielders

 

[DT-R]

No but you’ve got to admit having 3 out at once is unfortunate

Is it though? We all know Torp and Eccles are quite injury prone. Not to Sheaf levels granted, but it was expected that those 2 would miss game time this season at some point

Peach of a goal

 

[Saddlebrains]

I think we've been fucking shite how are we winning this

 

[Levship20]

Think we'll see Torp and JDS at some point 2nd half

I do honestly think that this is a game for Simms…. Haji not bullying

 

[Briles]

1-0 up away in the rain in Wales on a Friday? Will take it

 

[Dougin]

For such a "big club", there's a hell of a lot of empty seats in the home end.

The 1.5m fans are all too busy tonight

That wasn't great. We looked lackadaisical at the back at times there and took some unnecessary risks.

Need to be better second half.

Saying that, we did provide the one moment of genuine quality that half.

 

[usskyblue]

I might be moaning for moaning’s sake.. but Frank needs to have a word at HT about free kicks. There’s no nuance at all, they’re just taking turns for pot shots.

 

[b12345]

Bidwell's not even been that bad.

They've got in behind as a direct result of him being out of position at least three times

 

[Pusb1]

Bidwell and wolf look out their depth tbh. Can tell it's a heavily changed defensive line

Allen too lightweight against a physical team
Wright anonymous

 

[mmttww]

Not convinced we keep them out playing like that for another half. If we don't change anything at half time, here's hoping Torp, Eccles, Brau and Simms are all fit enough for 30 mins at full tilt.

 

[SBAndy]

No mate. Stone cold sober

Have a drink then, for everyone else’s sake.

 

[bigfatronssba]

This is where we'll see if lack of depth is going to cost us this season

 

[Dougin]

I do honestly think that this is a game for Simms…. Haji not bullying

He’s not interested

I think so, Rudoni hasn’t struggled with injuries previously

 

[JSL]

Need to up it a bit in the second half. They will come guns blazing and we need to be solid

 

[Londonccfcfan]

That midfield two struggled against Watford.
The fact that we took a couple of chances in the first 10 mins masked how much they did struggle!

Same again. But for a dopey wing back who played EMC onside that wasn't great and half.

 

[Brighton Sky Blue]

I think we've been fucking shite how are we winning this

One chance one goal, they’ve had at least 3 and spaffed them

 

[PVA]

DaSilva has to come on, they aren't even playing direct

He's been ill, that's why he's on the bench - not for Bidwell's superior aerial ability.

 

[Dougin]

Da silva simms and torp on after 60 mins. If we’re still winning 1-0 we will win.

 

[Ccfcisparks]

Yes the notion that Lampard is playing Bidwell for tactical reasons was hilarious.

 

[DT-R]

Begs the question why Reynolds is wasting money building new stands to just sit half empty!

Less to do with his performance level, more to do with the fact his skill set isn’t what we need in a fullback now.

If you think we've been "fucking shite" I can only assume you started supporting us in September, or you have some rare football specific dementia!

 

[shepardo01]

1-0. Great.
But let's not dress this up as good.
Not been great at the back. Centre halves getting played through the middle of and both fullbacks been poor.
Got exposed on Saturday but had already gone two up, but the two in midfield not really protecting the back four either.
BTA dropping deep and giving the ball away.
Best we've been is when Sakamoto has the ball but he's being doubled up on.

 

[Brighton Sky Blue]

Did I just see Andy Murray selling potatoes

 

[ccfcno9]

A half where Wright doesn't look up for it. I say this in the hope he comes out and plays a blinder 2nd half.

 

[Johnnythespider]

Rushworth to the rescue, he's been so busy this last 3 games. Bidwell looks rusty as you'd expect. Could do with an extra midfielder I think.

 

[shmmeee]

Nah we’re terrified by the colossus that is Kabore. Anyone with a footballing brain knows that.
