[Mr Panda]

Sakamoto on

 

[JoeCCFCPUSB]

Do u think lampards I PAD crew sent him that as code for the 4321

 

[skybluecam]

We gave Sheffield United a good game TBF, even Burnley we got to half time at 0-0

We barely got a kick vs Burnley and lost, and couldn’t beat a Sheff Utd team with 10 men for over half the game. Come on now.

 

[Chris1987]

Very poor half but somehow it's not worse than 2-0. Needs shaking up .Put Grimes on , maybe Saka too.

 

[mrfr]

Really odd. Can we not be critical of a poor performance?

It’s the whiplash I don’t get. We were unbeatable 4 days ago and now we’re complete dross. Criticism is fine, but let’s be sensible.

 

[Tommo1993]

Hopefully a better half but expecting a quick fire 3rd goal, game over.

 

[2024/25 League 1 Champs?]

As shite as the defence was Dovin literally had the ball in his hands and fumbled.

looked to me that Latibeaudiere ran across him as he went to pick it up, and took it away from him

could be wrong, but not sure Dovin was really at fault there

 

[TomRad85]

Glad Sakamoto is on. Surprised Grimes not on for Allen.

 

[Grendel]

Unless he's thing 4 atb with kitching lb

he was moaning to the bench in the last 10 of the first half pointing at his groin

 

[shmmeee]

How is Allen still on?

 

[Ccfcisparks]

It’s the whiplash I don’t get. We were unbeatable 4 days ago and now we’re complete dross. Criticism is fine, but let’s be sensible.

I think most posts have been around how poor we’ve been, not saying players are complete dross. It’s not unreasonable to say we’ve played poor

 

[Jimmy87]

Nothing wrong with the result. Performance has been disappointing so far

It has, all round. A bit of fight this half is needed.

 

[Tommo1993]

Fuck’s he on about?

 

[Winny the Bish]

How is Allen still on?

We're not allowed to be critical of Allen because he runs a lot, remember?

 

[Brighton Sky Blue]

A team that thinks it will lose tends to find ways to make it happen.

 

[Nick]

Ref misses that. Miles out

 

[SkyBlueCharlie9]

Glad Sakamoto is on. Surprised Grimes not on for Allen.

Protecting him for a fresh start v QPR I guess.

 

[BackRoomRummermill]

Asante off

Useless in this match

 

[Major Tom]

Don’t fancy us tonight I think a 3-1 defea

looked to me that Latibeaudiere ran across him as he went to pick it up, and took it away from him

could be wrong, but not sure Dovin was really at fault there

The fact a number 2 was allowed to run that far was the issue

 

[TomRad85]

How is Allen still on?

Tbh I'm glad as 90% of this forum would have lost its mind if Grimes had gone straight in for him tonight. I think now its clear what has to be done.

 

[stevefloyd]

Glad Asantes gone off...even superglue wouldn't stick to him

 

[Great_Expectations]

On the surface that’s a negative change, as that’s now 5-4-1 effectively.

I get nullifying their left side as we were overloaded but I worry that’s even less of an outlet now.

 

[Sick Boy]

The ref is a joke.

 

[Brighton Sky Blue]

Tbh I'm glad as 90% of this forum would have lost its mind if Grimes had gone straight in for him tonight. I think now it’s clear what has to be done.

Grimes cannot play Saturday so he really ought to have started tonight.

 

[mmttww]

What's the shape after the change? CWR haven't said anything about it. Too busy getting stressed.

 

[Brighton Sky Blue]

It’s wanting to keep the score down.

 

[Skyblueweeman]

Just sloppy at the back

 

[Sky_Blue_Dreamer]

Not sure Sakamoto is the right change - not exactly a physical player and we're not getting on the ball to give it to him. But hope he can get the ball and try and have a run at them.

 

[Saddlebrains]

Game too far for Allen this

 

[Nick]

Wish Simms would get angry

 

[TomRad85]

Lati has been awful tonight.

 

[jordan210]

Why are the defence constantly trying to pass it without looking or taking a touch

 

[Nick]

Saka giving it away then
