I really don't get why Gabriel isn't in the back line. That allows us so much more security and let's white push to the wing - when he shifted this match we changed the game.

[-] [email protected] 6 points 1 year ago

I'm quite wondering why this is happening? Is it issues in training or is there a knock they're trying to manage so it doesn't get exacerbated?

[-] [email protected] 2 points 1 year ago

Haven't heard any hint of an injury at all, and he probably would have mentioned it himself.

Can Brighton just go beat West Ham now so Shit aren't top of the table?

[-] [email protected] 1 points 1 year ago

You had to go and jinx it...

[-] [email protected] 5 points 1 year ago* (last edited 1 year ago)

Or I guess West Ham can go top on goal difference. Wtf West Ham? Are they good this season or is it the bimonthly stinker from Brighton? This is because I added a 3rd Brighton player to my FPL.

I'm so glad I didn't sell Gross yet

We can't be drawing games like that. Why stop at 2 goals?

[-] [email protected] 6 points 1 year ago

same shit , happens in every game, we look hungry, sharp and keep the pressure high when we're losing or drawing. Once we start leading we just stop functioning, it's like the team is unsure what to do next after scoring.

We're going back to not being able to kill games off, they need to be more ruthless

[-] [email protected] 3 points 1 year ago

Though as I say that, we had over 3 xG. We're also back to not being able to finish to save our lives, and keepers going super saiyan against us...

[-] [email protected] 3 points 1 year ago

Not really that great goalkeeping considering half the shots were just directly at Leno's hands

[-] [email protected] 2 points 1 year ago

It's true, I don't know what was going on with that but even Saka and Martinellie who tend to get creative with their placement were just going center mass all day

Paul Tierney making us pay for sending his distant cousin to Real Sociedad.

[-] [email protected] 6 points 1 year ago

can't be challenging for the title if we cant even beat a 10-men fulham at home.

On watching replays, Leno was absolutely outside the box. Disgusting how VAR said "nah it's fine" again when it's against us

[-] [email protected] 4 points 1 year ago

Well, we know know for certain how VAR really works and it explains all the bullshittery we've seen in the Premier League implementation since inception. Especially compared to other competitions. English VAR is just a white-labelled repackaging of the terrible English referees.

Oh my god. Everton lost to Wolves by 1 goal.

[-] [email protected] 3 points 1 year ago

And thank god for that and for the big man Sasa

[-] [email protected] 4 points 1 year ago

What happened to our set piece defending? We were great two seasons ago at that.

I think Arteta really needs to concede that the Partey in the back isn't working. I think it's a fitness issue but I like to see Zinchenko starting soon. This is also the first game that Havertz frustrated me, you were right in front of the goal, get the ball. Ødegaard is a workhorse but he hasn't been as sharp.

Thank god for Eddie, and a very decent performance for Fabio is a positive.

[-] [email protected] 5 points 1 year ago

Gabriel was a key component of the set piece defending scheme.

[-] [email protected] 3 points 1 year ago* (last edited 1 year ago)

Well I guess West Ham is getting their groove back

[-] [email protected] 3 points 1 year ago

Just gonna point out, if refs actually gave us fouls when we deserve them we'd have easily beat them, and wouldn't have conceded the second goal.

[-] [email protected] 1 points 1 year ago

The ref didn't seem too bad to me, he seemed to let fouls go a bit more for both teams

[-] [email protected] 1 points 1 year ago

Tete shoving Martinelli, the shove on I forgot whom that led to the corner they scored from, Bassey's constant nonsense, Leno handling the ball outside the box... I can go on.

[-] [email protected] 1 points 1 year ago

Yeah, but if we keep beating that drum we'll go mad.

[-] [email protected] 1 points 1 year ago

And if we stop we'll never get change to happen. It's a bit hard to say.

[-] [email protected] 1 points 1 year ago

Honestly I don't disagree, but I genuinely fear for retaliation from the PGMOL, because they've shown that they're not above that sort of thing.

[-] [email protected] 1 points 1 year ago

I mean, what are PGMOL gonna do to fans? Dox me?

[-] [email protected] 2 points 1 year ago

Nah, they'll just send our players off

[-] [email protected] 2 points 1 year ago

Nothing new then
