[Brighton Sky Blue]

Yes your over use of a idea that's become your own personal brainstorm

Sorry Gareth

bidwell has been wank

Not a great start to the season. Da Silva deserves a start for me

 

[procdoc]

Midfield has been poor, who’d have thought it

 

[Somerset Sky Blue]

Expect so much more than that from Rudoni. He's hardly been in the game.

Eccles has been very good, apart from that one awful pass. MVE, excellent too, apart from that one awful pass.

Wright has looked dangerous at times, but a bit disappointed with Bidwell. Can see Dasilva coming on at some point if it carries on like this

I think rudoni has been playing fine.
He is making runs behind (like Simms/wright) and we are choosing to slow the game down and pass sideways.
He is looking to receive the ball and turn with it (whereas torp appears to be calling for the ball but often when closely marked so isn't getting it - lacks confidence in himself?).
Agree with earlier comments about static play, slow build-up and defence and attack playing so far apart from each other.
Still, Norwich haven't impressed either.

U21 player Harvey Broad. I think some of the more established U21s are injured

Still want to know who the number 51 was that hasn't come out to train at HT

 

[Perennial Lurker]

Sorry Gareth

Great repartee

 

[Grendel]

Sorry Gareth

I think you mean Martin

No they haven't.

Nobody knows , it's a mystery

 

[mark82]

Need a Kasey Palmer type to get things moving between the attack and the middle

It's actually true though.

Centrally we've been fine

 

[Brighton Sky Blue]

I think you mean Martin

Martin?

Harvey Broad.

 

[jordan210]

Looks like a double half time sun fkr Norwich comming up

 

[procdoc]

No they haven't.

Not been good either. Game has been poor from both teams

 

[Perennial Lurker]

I think you mean Martin

Here we go again
Am I your new obsession now Kasey has left ? Incredibly dull but to be expected

 

[Grendel]

Martin?

his former account

 

[Brighton Sky Blue]

Great repartee

I think there’s similarities, you don’t. So what?

 

[Evo1883]

Nobody knows , it's a mystery

Platt says under 21 lad

 

[Old Warwickshire lad]

Eccles and Torp both doing okay. Yes they have made errors, but that’s because they are both looking for the ball a lot.
Saka has not got going this season, but that doesn’t get mentioned.

 

[Brighton Sky Blue]

his former account

I had my suspicions it was SBT making a comeback

 

[AFCCOVENTRY]

What position have we signed Rudoni for?

 

[Tommo1993]

Still want to know who the number 51 was that hasn't come out to train at HT

Someone said it was McKenzie Stretton-on-Dunsmore

 

[Perennial Lurker]

What position have we signed Rudoni for?

I thought he was to play 8 , looks lost at 10

 

[AFCCOVENTRY]

EMC coming on

 

[SkyblueTexan]

Still scratching my head over our performances. Still not fluid and crisp enough. Simms lacking confidence yet again (should have scored 1 early for sure). Don't understand why we pass backward when we win the ball in their half. Need to be braver.

 

[Perennial Lurker]

EMC coming on

Playing left or right ?

 

[SeaSeeEffCee]

They’ve taken off both of their big summer signings

 

[HadjiChippo]

hope Sakamoto not hurt too bad, hopefully precautionary more than anything

 

[AFCCOVENTRY]

Playing left or right ?

Replaced Tatsu on the right

Can't pass forward if there is no option available. Most breakdowns in play result in a backwards/. sideways pass

 

[Evo1883]

Pretty amateur by rudoni there

 

[Paxman II]

Rudoni the one not in the game really yet. Simms feeding off scraps tbf. Everywhere else OK tbh. Need to step up a gear and pass and receive a bit quicker.

 

[SeaSeeEffCee]

That is just unbelievably bad from Rudoni. How do you not even make contact with the ball?

 

[mark82]

How the fuck, Rudoni.
