Looks very poor

hope the injury isn’t too bad to MVE

Don’t be silly

Swansea were poor. Should have got more but lacking of much creativity. Very early days but Wright and Simms do not look anywhere near their price. On 95 minutes Godden was chasing down the ball, Simms wasn't!

 

[Sky Blue Pete]

You can see we’re badly missing some dynamism in midfield, a lot of the play second half very staggered and straightforward. Seems a bit worrying that we only consider alternative targets when the main one becomes unavailable.

Big few weeks coming up for recruitment

Not sure that’s the case at all

 

[Finham]

We’ve spent 10-15m on two strikers that we don’t play together and I’m afraid to say are no where near the finished article.FFS mate i

FFS mate it's the 3rd game!

 

[fatso]

Awful game, a point each probably fair, but zero creativity or skill from either side.
No one stood out, 6/10 all round as an away point is rarely a bad result.

Fuck all else to say.
Move onto next week.

 

[The Philosopher]

We don’t seem to have any “invention” in the middle. We need a couple of midfielders in this week at least.

 

[Matt smith]

Not sure that’s the case at all

You didn’t think that was poor?

 

[Brighton Sky Blue]

Not sure that’s the case at all

It would appear to be on recent evidence

 

[Tommo1993]

We went so, so negative in the second half.

 

[pusbccfc]

I'd be very frustrated if I'd spent £100 travelling down there today. Same as last season. Sitting back and taking the point at Swansea when they are there for the taking.

Why hasn’t a hamer replacement already been signed?

 

[mark82]

We need 2 CM, possibly another no. 10 (loan), another CB and possibly a RWB depending on MvE injury.

Someone said his foot was bandaged but hopefully precautionary

Relax. They'll have been working on players. Deals don't happen overnight, it's only been a week.

Should have signed Hudlin, clown

 

[Sky Blue Pete]

Bossed posession
Bossed chances that they’re were
We should be celebrating a 1-0
Eccles and sheaf good
Saka needed some protection
What did you expect losing yok and hamer???
robins and adi will get them up and running

 

[Marty]

Dominated them for large periods, just lacked a clear cut chance for a goal. Signs are looking good for this side, still need a Hamer replacement and a couple more, and I think we'll be safely in the play offs.

 

[covcity4life]

Just seen the goals. Think wright trying to turn on the ball rather than assist. Nice finish from godden

Poor goal to concede. Not as bad as oggy made out on radio though

 

[procdoc]

Simms has no impact whether in starting 11 or off the bench. Such a dud.

Fuck off

The mugs who paid for the ticket just for the points will be pleased. Still mugs.

 

[cooperskyblue]

I think the fact the Swansea fans made zero atmosphere contributed to the feeling of it being a flat game.

We need these 4 signings in. Energy in CM for sure. And extra options to bring on but it will happen.

Sakamoto looks very good. If we continue to pick up points while we gel then we are in a good position to kick on when everything clicks.

Surely people didn't pay £33 for points?

Did we boss possession?

They had better chances

 

[duffer]

Fair result, imho. Could've used a bit of needle and a few tasty tackles to liven it up a bit, perhaps, but I don't think we've got that sort of player in the squad at the moment. No concerns for me - we still look a tidy, well-organised, team and I think there's plenty more to come from this lot yet.

 

[clint van damme]

They've been in the door 5 minutes for fucks sake.

 

[stevefloyd]

For a new team we looked solid enough passed the ball well, as usual just the final ball a pity we switched off after our goal but Wright didn't seem switched on at times hopefully they will coach him to be more aware Sheaf was very good

 

[Sky Blue Pete]

It would appear to be on recent evidence

What evidence????

 

[hamertime]

Any chance we can get Simms out on a loan in League One to build his confidence.

 

[Brighton Sky Blue]

What evidence????

I would say the situation at LCB

 

[Finham]

Fuck off Wrexham, 2 injury time goals in a 5-5 draw? And people say that wrestling is fixed...

 

[Sky Blue Pete]

Did we boss possession?

They had better chances

60:40

 

[Speedie's Head]

It's beginning to confirm that some of our buys have been a bit rushed. Dasilva has a mistake in him every game. I'll give Simms more time given his lack of starts in the 2nd half of last season. Saka easily knocked off the ball but more importantly Eccles Cake cannot cover for Gus. I'm surprised that we haven't brought anyone in this week if we had someone lined up

 

[Nick]

60:40

Mcfadz and Thomas?

 

[Sky Blue Pete]

I would say the situation at LCB

Sorry I recognise and am gobsmacked no one came in last week I see no evidence that we are not attempting to get deals over the line

 

[procdoc]

I would say the situation at LCB

Clearly thought we’d have Kitching in by now
