The midfield have been weirdly negative. You’d think the opposite of what Lampard wanted.

Great move unlucky city

 

[Covkid1968#]

That’s better City …

 

[ptr]

A goalie that comes and claims everything! Wow.

 

[Ccfcisparks]

Eccles has bottled that

Hardly. He just wasn’t quick enough to get it

 

[fernandopartridge]

Sakamoto needs to look for the first time ball more often.

Eccles needs to be a bit less half hearted there

 

[Brighton Sky Blue]

Yes but that’s not enough. He’s just tried to turn on the edge of his own box and lost the ball. He’s not good enough

He’s raw I agree

 

[SIR ERNIE]

Bassette working very hard

Badly needs a strike partner, he's isolated with EMC so wide.

 

[Domo]

This is rubbish. Bassette just isn't good enough to play that lone striker role

Rubbish. He's been provided nothing

 

[mark82]

Brilliant flick from Bassette.

 

[shmmeee]

Back to old ways with the slow negative passing.

 

[peteCCFC]

Oh to have a proper goalkeeper

 

[2024/25 League 1 Champs?]

At what point do you pull MVE out the team?

when we have a decent replacement RB perhaps..

 

[Rodders1]

Rest MVE, put Eccles RB and get Torp on…

 

[procdoc]

We need to move the ball quicker and push higher up the pitch

 

[Sky_Blue_Dreamer]

The midfield have been weirdly negative. You’d think the opposite of what Lampard wanted.

He chose to start with Eccles and Sheaf, so I imagine he was setting it up quite negative.

 

[SeaSeeEffCee]

We are soooooo slow

 

[Brighton Sky Blue]

Some encouraging stuff in that half but letting ourselves down in the final third

 

[Ccfcisparks]

Good start but got worse as the half went on.


Bassette very naive, Eccles and MVE poor, EMC anonymous for the majority

 

[stupot07]

A decent half chance there for Eccles


We are far too narrow though.

 

[Major Tom]

FFS disappointed to be going in 1-0 down there ..

 

[Osabisa3256]

Eccles had an age then to find a pass and hoofed it straight out…. why??

Because he’s shit

 

[mark82]

Expect a lot more of EMC for what we paid for him. Desperately need Wright back.

 

[Evo1883]

There's some overly negative posters tonight I feel , if not for a flukey deflection we'd be talking about another decent half where we've competed evenly with albion

 

[Nick]

If it wasn't for the own goal wouldn't be too bad a half

 

[fernandopartridge]

Rubbish. He's been provided nothing

When he's had the ball into feet he's given it away more often than not.

 

[Skyblue Bangkok]

We are soooooo slow

Clarke has hardly touched the ball

 

[ptr]

Bassette will get better and better. Needs time and tbh don’t think our other options are any better.

 

[Skybluekyle]

Very harsh to be losing

 

[lewys33]

can’t find a cov stream so watching a WBA one and Christ the support commentator is annoying.

 

[Chris1987]

This is rubbish. Bassette just isn't good enough to play that lone striker role

Simms would be my pick . BTA is nothing better than a bench player

 

[Sick Boy]

Decent half overall. We look much better.

 

[Matt smith]

Pass the ball quicker ffs

 

[covboy9]

Oh for a decent keeper

 

[Boicey]

Just get the ball to Saka as much as possible. He can do something.
EMC just not contributing. He looks scared to death.
No doubt Simms and Torp on soon.
