Arsenal's formation has fallen apart this half. Kolasinac and Saka in particular are just going wherever they want to. Very, very lucky that West Ham haven't scored on the counter attack.
I think everyone is a bit all over the place at the moment, in fitness too (Lallana’s “injury” after 40 mins last week was cramp!) We’re going to see some weird results and performances for a couple of months.
Yeah just seen Lallana come on and thought I was going mad as I was laughing at him going off (That sounds awful) the other night. Even in a normal season I don't take much notice of the table till 8-10 games in but think Brighton have looked pretty good in their matches so far.
Yeah players shouldn't try and kick the ball when playing the game of football. Don't think it was in any way clear and obvious.
I think we will turn it around, as Hasenhuttl is now experienced at doing it repeatedly. However, it is nice to see there are a few other terrible sides out there so far, just in case we need to rely on the ‘at least there are three worse teams than us’ strategy that served us so well in a couple of recent seasons.
I can only think that maybe from behind the action, at pitch level, it was difficult to judge the distance between Mane, the ball and the keeper. But that's me scraping the barrel, because it was 100% red card.
maybe because most the referees are not up to the necessary standard. It was a ridiculous decision to give a yellow.
