Sent from my SM-J330FN using Tapatalk You can say it but we wouldn't and, after starting Long up front for several games, in which he never looked like scoring, Pellegrino has realized that, which is why he very sensibly replaced him with Gabbiadini.

Donatello Posted 29 October, 2017 Share Posted 29 October, 2017 Great result. Far too conservative in possession. Too many percentage passes from Davis, JWP, and Cedric. Tadic or Boufal need to drift in closer to Gabbiadini when we have possession because he's too isolated/isn't holding the ball up. Ultimately, however, it's the classic away performance you'd expect to see playing away against the top 6, it's just not very entertaining/Brighton are not top 6. So yes, slightly more adventurous, please. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

verlaine1979 Posted 29 October, 2017 Share Posted 29 October, 2017 Boufal has played well, but should be in the middle with Tadic on the left and JWP on the right. That said, if we insist on hoofing long from the back every time we win possession, the midfield and attack could position themselves wherever they like without ever seeing the ball.

warsash saint Posted 29 October, 2017 Share Posted 29 October, 2017 I love Prowse. I really do. He's a top lad, has a cracking sense of humour and cares a lot about local charities too so I've heard. But the fact he starts games of football for a professional side is one of the scandals of our time. An absolute scandal! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sheaf Saint Posted 29 October, 2017 Share Posted 29 October, 2017 I don’t agree with these tactics at all. We haven’t looked threatening at all since we scored. We should’ve pushed on for a second. I disagree. We're away from home and we've got a lead to protect. How many times have we seen teams come to SMS and successfully use the same tactic. I think this is the perfect situation to bring on Long, because it plays to his strengths. With BHA pushing for an equaliser it will leave space in behind for him to run at, which is what he does best. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ultimatt Posted 29 October, 2017 Share Posted 29 October, 2017 Bertrand and Cedric are playing way forward while Davis+Romeu tuck in beside VVD/Hoedt. Looks positive. The problem is linking the ball to them. JWP/Tadic/Boufal need to do more. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
stknowle Posted 29 October, 2017 Share Posted 29 October, 2017 Seagulls always struck me as a ridiculous name for their team. If its going to be a bird then make its something mean, Seagull is about the lamest bird there is. Tits? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
doddisalegend Posted 29 October, 2017 Share Posted 29 October, 2017 Tepid stuff from saints Brighton looking the most threatening seems like we are happy to sit on a 1 nil lead. When we do go forward we are back to one saints player in the opposition box before we send in a high cross again . Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
syd_barrett_saint Posted 29 October, 2017 Share Posted 29 October, 2017 Berty being left exposed by Boufal. From what I saw Bertrand has been more of a liability down the left than Boufal so far. Bertrand has been very sloppy in possession. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We're just inviting pressure IMO and making things harder for ourselves. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
