What does Dave Watson actually do with him in training?

[Dark Munster]

[Norm]

FF poor.

[DT]

Boufal has no brain

I love the way when we concede, it is all Forster's fault. It had nothing to do with Oriel's ****e clearance and us leaving Cedric to mark Murray did it?! FFS!

Despite that, the guy whose job it is to keep the ball out of the net, failed spectacularly again to do so. So yes, its his fault.

[doddisalegend]

We really aren't very good anymore are we.

[adrian lord]

We’ve turned into 11 statues since half time

Can't wait to read another 20 posts of "Forsters just going through a bad patch"

 

I didn't realise bad patches lasted 3 years +

[Avenue_Saint]

Forster is an absolute liability now. Seriously!

nothing he’s too busy playing with his hair

[sfc1976]

We look jet lagged - no energy at all. Please get Tadic off.

[whelk]

Defence is so solid and then you have the lump in goal. FFS he has to go

[qwertyell]

Jesus Christ, Forster is a liability. Has all the agility of a tree.

 

Standing the ball up to the far post for the striker to easily beat Cedric in the air has been a fruitful opposition tactic for too long.

This. First impression Forster poor at his near post. But Murray had time to make it a pinpoint accurate, powerful header. Maybe De Gea would've saved it. Poor from all the defenders.

[Roo1976]

fook sake now because that foucking howler were now under pressure we need not have been...........foock really.

[Saint_clark]

Hoedts been **** as well.

Gone to **** again , need a sub to shake things up !

[tobes8]

Toothless up front yet again. Pretty embarrassing again, Brighton aren't that great and we've totally lost any attacking threat against them. Yet again a bore fest ahead.

Oh and Forster can't be dropped.....

I'd call it really really frustrating.

That is the usual dross served up on here every time we concede a goal and shows a total lack of understanding of the game. Oriel should have cleared the ball firstly, the cross should have been prevented secondly, the marking was ****e thirdly. Should Forster's positioning have been better? Definitely. Did he fail spectacularly? Not at all. Maybe if we could pass quicker, create some decent chances and score a few more goals, we wouldn't be focusing on the keeper all the time. But I suppose that is Forster's fault as well?!

[OldNick]

I’m sorry but there is no team spirit, we need to change.kneejerk I know but the manager is poor

[Saint Benali]

Got to be honest we have both been very poor. JWP has done **** all since that free kick.

So there's no point in a goalkeeper then?

Defenders can't always prevent goalkeepers from having to face an effort on target. Occasionally, y'know, goalkeepers need to save them.

It really wasn't that powerful. Look how much it arced before crossing the line.

 

There is no possible defense for a supposedly international-quality, 6ft 7 keeper letting that in. None.

 

He's a f*cking joke of a keeper, and has cost us far too many points in recent times.

 

he needs replacing urgently.

Surely then, every goal that is scored, in every football match, is the keeper's fault.

[scotty]

Not great from forster, got to say though that was coming from the moment we f*cked up clearing our lines. And the header was deflected more badly off cedrics head than I initially thought.

[SaltashSaint]

Quite clearly, there's a point. I am trying to highlight the fact that every player on the pitch contributes to us winning, drawing or losing.

Never thought that a threat but it was cos of a sh1te keeping.

[Greenridge]

Yes. He did. Very clearly.

[Suhari]

We. Are. So. Slow. And. Dull.

Powerful header. Watch it again. It was slow motion

This is utter turd yet again. And MP is a bloody liability - shutting up shop after we went 1 up and letting them in the game. Awful tactics (if you can even call it that).

 

Seeing that buffoon on the sideline with his arms folded and not changing things while we are being overrun is infuriating.

 

Please please put him out of his misery and sack him Les Reed. He is taking us backwards at a fast pace

[Delmary]

Taxi for Tadic

[Edmonton Saint]

Tadic been poor again today.

[doddisalegend]

Are we going to test the Brighton keeper this half?

[SaltashSaint]

Yes. He did. Very clearly.

 

In that case, did Oriel fail spectacularly to clear the ball (passing it to a Brighton player) and did Cedric fail spectacularly to challenge for the ball?

[DT]

Get Tadic off! Manager! Do something! Gabbi also isolated. Long to harry them at least

Please take off Tadic and replace him with a footballer.

When was the last time we tested a goalkeeper in any match?

[doddisalegend]

It might be easier to name the players who haven't been poor.

[sfc1976]

Tadic is utter, utter turd.

[DT]

Forster simply must have a no drop policy in his contract. It's the only explanation

[washsaint]

We have only one player who looks like he can make something happen - Boufal. And yet he is stuck out on the wing while Tadic is supposedly behind Gabbi but has been a passenger the whole game

[whelk]

While we are at it Alan Smith is a total cnt these days

[verlaine1979]

This is down to the manager. They've coped easily all afternoon with high balls and crosses, yet he's done nothing to try and create any sort of pressure through the middle. Happy to keep Tadic and Boufal on the touchlines, and have Romeu, Davis and JWP playing within touching distance in defensive midfield. Static set-up, very little movement, dull as f*** to watch.

[Donatello]

Redmond for Tadic. Long for JWP.

[DT]

Not sure this manager has much of a clue tbh

Anyone else getting the feeling that Brighton are going to sneak this?
