Shows how even the game was in the end. We dominated the first half and they did the second half. Our subs did not work well at all.
2-0 flattered us in the end, if Brighton had someone who could finish, this could've so easily finished 2-2.
If we didn’t have a geriatric on at the end we would’ve won 4-2
I don't know if this is great minds or two tards
Think that was more to Brighton overcommitting the last 15+ stoppage, but yes I concur.
Let’s go for the latter.
It's been shite for years now!
Well i didn't see any of it, but it's sooo nice to read all the positive comments.
Everyone without a star by their name should chip in .
Definite improvement and a welcome 3pts but a long way to go.
Kerkez looks far more at home when he has the flank to himself and isn’t put in a straight jacket. Still far too rash though and needs to learn to stop diving into / after players so much.
Defence perhaps better but still pretty suspect and we were saved by Brighton’s lack of quality (and Alisson) on more than one occasion.
Midfield had good spells but still far too easy to play through and our transition play is slow, ponderous and full of “not quite” passes too often. Macca looking better which is big for us and Jones continuing his good form which is great. Interesting to see Gravy further forward with Jones often sitting back with defenders.
Ekitike probably could’ve scored 4 today. Will be interesting to see how we handle the Isak vs Ekitike situation. Ekitike is still raw but should 100% be starting.
Salah looked a different player today. Had that big chance to score - shame he didn’t. Will this really be his last game?
I still think a quality pacey wide forward and a DM transform this team.

Great result but the preformance itself wasn't anything special.. The win was just about deserved and the way we played just reminded me of the last 4 months of last season when slot ball was in full flow.. Winning games, deservingly so but only just and tending to rely on Ali a bit...
Creativity was basically no existent apart from late on when we proceed to fuck up two or three 3v1s which was just down to brighton pushing on rather than any brilliant attacking play by us..
Still want slot gone, can't bare his brand of football, just bores the fuck out of me. I don't think that the football will get much better than this under slot, this is his way of playing

CB is the priority though
Our new CB/RB will transform us into CL winners.
He was put down and sold to glue factory.
Those of you saying that we were fortunate that Brighton didn't score a couple themselves are absolutely right. But you're forgetting that we really should have had somewhere between 4 and 6 ourselves, so fortunate in part as it was, we were still thoroughly deserving of the win.
