That first 45 was the most depressing display I could’ve witnessed; that was not a premiership team or set up, total absence of organisation and structure, somehow Brighton seemed to just hold back after the penalty, and we were lucky they didn’t have a striker
It was a much better second half - actual effort and some attempts at attacking
That foul on Wilson, SO obvious in real time even from the opposite side of the pitch, why VAR was required is beyond me…. and a red seems paltry punishment when it would’ve been a nailed on goal - but rules are rules
Max should’ve been off by half time
Joelinton was a revelation in his cameo, presence and tracking back, and played that ball out to Wilson for the sending off incident if I saw correctly - my Czech girlfriend said “the blonde black man you said is rubbish, he seems to be better than the others” - I didn’t disagree
I thought we were destined to lose 3-0, I’ll take that point all day long
off to the co-op for more cans………
oh yeah - as for Brighton;
Trossard’s a little ****
Coochicoo’s hair is hilarious
They have giants at the back
Lamptey was excellent - little ****
Lallana is so much shorter in real life
Bassouma (allegedly) got slaughtered by the crowd
