He's a right footed CAM playing at leftback

Easy to just swap him and saka tbh

[Grendel]

Saka looks like a lost child this season

To be fair he’s not a central midfielder - it’s bizarre playing him there

 

[shmmeee]

This is a common misconception I hear spouted a lot, the referees have Comms, and the instruction has been to let referees make the decision. Even if a lino sees a foul, unless they believe it isn't going to be given they aren't going to flag, they may have a word in the ear though, it is a common instruction to delay the flag and let the referee make the decision on field.

Stuoid arrogant decision by a referee imo

Mate both teams are passing it to each other. Derby gifted us two shockers earlier

Derby are wank but took their one chance

 

[Saddlebrains]

There's absolutely nothing good about this

 

[Sky Blue Pete]

So poor
No plan
No passion
No fire
Eccles trying to get things moving but that’s about it

 

[stevefloyd]

Easy half time team talk for Robins " PASS THE FUCKING BALL TO EACH OTHER"

 

[Nick]

I get the feeling Sakamoto isn’t a starter anymore - really hasn’t recovered from that injury, kind of like Marosi

Not as a number 10. He's a winger

 

[Brighton Sky Blue]

There's absolutely nothing good about this

It’s only 0-1 and if we wake up we win this

 

[fernandopartridge]

Eccles back on corners

FFS

It's the only time in the game we've looked like scoring

Donkey Hadji back again this half

He’s good in his natural position, but Rudoni at LWB worked for a half against Luton so we’re going to play this every game until we lose even though it doesn’t suit most of our attackers.

Agreed Derby are shite. Won't take much but more than this

 

[Ccfcisparks]

BTA has hardly touched the ball and it’s Haji getting pelters. This board makes me laugh.

 

[OldBedrocker]

Shit shot by Wright but how the fuck was it given offside there were at least 12 players in front of him

 

[ccfc922]

To be fair Rudoni’s assist was inch perfect

Fantastic pass in all fairness

 

[Terry_dactyl]

He's a right footed CAM playing at leftback

I’ve seen him play well there!

 

[mmttww]

He's a right footed CAM playing at leftback

Rudoni is left footed, but he shouldn't be there

 

[Nick]

He's a right footed CAM playing at leftback

Rudoni is all left foot

Although he's there because it worked for a half.

 

[SIR ERNIE]

Nothing is sticking to BTA

It rarely does, he's always running away from the pass and its a major reason we're not able to build and create.
Bassette is a far better option.

 

[Macca]

Moaning about ref but we are getting some soft free kicks

 

[Brighton Sky Blue]

We’re back to just hopelessly crossing it in

 

[Boicey]

What's so hard about MVE playing with Saka wide in front of him, which works, and Torp at no 10.
But generally it's been unbelievably slow and hopeless. Something very weird about this teams motivation.

 

[mark82]

2 minutes. Are they taking the piss?

 

[robbiekeane]

our tactic just seems to be work it into the wide areas and hit in hopeful crosses. we are not even good in the air

 

[Ccfcisparks]

Sheaf, Saka, Rudoni, BTA all been terrible this half

 

[Nick]

Our throw ins are embarrassing

 

[Sky_Blue_Dreamer]

Have we forgotten Simms is injured?

 

[Evo1883]

An absolutely nothing half by city

 

[SeaSeeEffCee]

Wasting time for them with our hilariously shit throw ins

 

[skybluegod]

Stuoid arrogant decision by a referee imo

It's nothing to do with arrogance. It's taught my the FA/Observers. It's also because the referee decides the tolerance in the game not the AR. It's also to protect the lino's in two ways firstly from any flak from fans/players (rightly or wrongly that one) and then secondly as despite them being qualified referees. You specialise at a certain level. So yes they are good officials but the men in the middle are the top level officials compared to linos who may not necessarily have referred in the middle to too high a level.

 

[skybluecam]

Surprisingly football is a lot easier against 10 men

 

[sw88]

We win a throw in a decent position after Binks is high up the pitch

We slow play down and waste it! Might as well book us for time wasting

 

[Brighton Sky Blue]

This team just picks and chooses when to perform. Dreadful.

 

[Matt smith]

Looking like the blip was the 2 wins
