Ugly performance but satisfying, great result - My thoughts on the Brighton game

In fairness this does say it all

 

I just feel like fans forget there's another team on the pitch especially when it's a Brighton or a Brentford for example.

There were times in this game I said this lot are ****ing brilliant- they even knew when to go down and stop the game.

I think Brighton at home and with more years of having the same coaching just played football and had more energy left second half.

It's a very good away point and some weren't quite on it.

 

Good away point and another clean sheet - didn't see the game but sounds as though we weren't at our best but still managed to see off a good team and Nick (Pope) a point.

Saw the highlights and Wilsons goal should have stood but the ref blew early instead of letting VAR check... bit baffling when you consider:


Surely we must write a complaint about that - the ref's so far this season have had a mare and we are only 19 games in!

As long as I can remember our defense has been the major issue and now we are the only team along with City to have yet to conceded a goal so far. If you offered me a point and a clean sheet vs City right now I'd snatch your hand off.

 

This might go down like a lead balloon but I agree with you Trips was caught out and he can quite often be because he is trying to orchestrate an attacking move.

He’s a brilliant player so I won’t skate him but he has been at fault for some goals as much as any player.

But overall he is class.

 

It was mate. Brighton are a very good efficient team and will finish top ten this season.

They actually miss a class striker. If they had one they would be lethal.

 

And I think we can. I honestly think we can possibly get a result against them with our energy in midfield but it would be a monumental effort.

It’s a free hit really.

 

Will Nunez miss the game against us?

 

Think so, it was straight red for violent conduct.

 

Straight red so is it a three match ban?

 

Think so

 

Happy days.

So only Salah, Firmino, Diaz to worry about then.

 

I'm confident we can stop Firmino (get the samba twin midfield to remind him where his loyalties should lie)

The other 2 may be a bit tricky ..
