st albans fox 8,314 Posted 3 October 2020 Report Share Posted 3 October 2020 Have grim was Brighton’s play in giving away possession and a free kick in added time ? and then not to defend the free kick in any way 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Shane 1,384 Posted 3 October 2020 Report Share Posted 3 October 2020 Brighton and Potter will eventually suffer the same fate as Howe and Bournemouth & Swansea before them. Credit to them trying to play tidy football but they’re going to leak goals, even in this back 3 formation. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

shailen 1,904 Posted 3 October 2020 Report Share Posted 3 October 2020 I'm not sure Everton will be near the top 6. They're on a high and have momentum from the signings they've made in the summer. Once that goes I'll think they'll struggle and end up between 7th and 10th. 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites

One of LCFC’s biggest weaknesses. Three of the 4 goals we’ve conceded have come from crosses, the 4th as a result of a headed clearance, again from a cross. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Incredible business, I joke a lot about our transfers etc and feign impatience during windows but we really are in all seriousness one of the best ran clubs in world football. Much like Dortmund IMO 👌 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
TrickyTrevLeftPeg 83 Posted 3 October 2020 Report Share Posted 3 October 2020 (edited) Brighton do try to play the right way. They play through the lines and also want to play out of the back so credit to them. The problem is they always look like they want to score the perfect goal. Yes Maupay goal was scrappy but that was the first time they actually played the ball into the box. Even set pieces they don't ever play the ball into the box. They flatter to deceive and are actually frustrating to watch. They create all there own problems. Edited 3 October 2020 by TrickyTrevLeftPeg Quote Link to post Share on other sites

This obsession with playing out from the back and teams seem to be overlooking the fact that goalkeepers need to be good at saving shots before anything else. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

WigstonWanderer 2,251 Posted 3 October 2020 Report Share Posted 3 October 2020 (edited) Sounds like Chilly had a decent game today. Good luck to him. He always seemed to play better for England than for us. Perhaps he’ll do well at Chelsea. Of the “top 6” they’re the ones I least dislike.

The cheeky fecker could cross a football all along. He was just pretending to hit the first defender every time. What a joker!! Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Md9 719 Posted 3 October 2020 Report Share Posted 3 October 2020 Can’t wait for Liverpool to put 5 past Everton so they don’t get to far ahead of themselves Quote Link to post Share on other sites
martyn 1,409 Posted 3 October 2020 Report Share Posted 3 October 2020 That's a quality goal. Thought James might not have a big impact at Everton given his career trajectory but he has impressed a lot so far, not just with his quality but he is putting a shift in and dealing with the physicality just fine. If Calvert Lewin carries on scoring they'll be favourites for Europe. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

It does make you wonder about the post Christmas period when he was very average compared to 2019 and whether that was due to his head being turned by Chelsea interest. We can't know but if that were the case then he let us down. im pretty sure one of the ITKs did actually say he’s had his head turned now you mention it... Quote Link to post Share on other sites
