Something definitely not right at the club from RH's body language he looks dissinterested & beaten, wouldn't be surprised to see him walk

Valery was in no mans land for their third. He moved up when Alonso raced down the line so he was majorly caught out. Great going forward is young Jan but positionally in defence he has lots to learn.

Just put the captains arm band on the tea lady. Hoj is beyond awful, so slow to react and then turns his back.

 

How often do our players pussy out of a block and cost us a goal?

How has Kante found that much space just outside the box?

 

What were Romeu and PEH doing? Overrated **** ****s.

 

They are all over the place, when valery goes wandering like that , it kills every thing as Romeu etc have to let it out of position

Why oh why oh why the club didn't invest in proven defenders in the summer I have no idea.

 

Because they are ****ing cheapskates.

HT summary:

 

Manager - ****

Keeper - ****

Defence - ****

Midfield - a figment of our imagination

Ings - only decent thing going for us at the moment.

JWP receives the ball in space 20 yards out and just passes it back into the danger area. Never want to look forward.

 

Two obvious changes need to be made at h/t. Long and ward-prowse off for Boufal and Adams. Will it happen? Probably not.

Pretty much what we all predicted, lots of huff and puff, but no real quality. If we get out with a 2 goal deficit we will have done well.

Hasenhuttl walked down the tunnel like he really couldn't be arsed anymore.

RH is better than Pellegrino but that's not exactly saying much.... Yes he has a crap squad at his disposal but still we should be doing better.... Brighton don't exactly have any world beaters, What are we working on in training? Cos it sure isn't improving defending

Chelsea have been pretty ****e but are comfortable which sums us up.

 

LOL@Anyone who predicted top half this season. It isn't happening, we will continue to finish inside the bottom five until we're relegated. The ambition at this club went when Koeman left.

Weak at centre back so signed Hoedt.

 

Still weak at centre back so signed Vestergaard.

 

Still weak at centre back so signed Danso.

 

Weak up front so signed Adams.

 

Weak in central midfield so signed Lemina.

 

Sold Targett and signed no left back.

 

Honestly, what a litany of failure and incompetence.

 

Sadly, true. But Danso was showing promise a few weeks ago.

Sadly, this is looking like the stark reality.

On the plus side, given any kind of service ings looks dangerous.

 

Everything else negative.

Gunn atrocious

Surely given our defensive issues we should be going back to basics. The second awful ball by Gunn, then bednarek cushioned header to romeu(too cute by half) given where we are. Others times we’ve got away with trying to be too cute.

 

Annoyed me at end with 20 seconds of injury time left in the half we have a free kick and we muck about passing across our back line and are lucky to end up with a throw in

Chelsea aren’t even having to do anything special to earn it.

Another long painful season ahead. I think this might be the worse I've seen us play in a while really not enjoying my afternoon at SMS.

 

We are second best all over the pitch. That's probably our best defence out there and it's still ****ing awful. Midfield is woeful ( Romeu best of the bunch) but probably out best midfield [emoji3064] due to lack of options. Attack looks blunt yet nothing on the bench looks much better. In short we have a crap squad that will huff and puff, under Ralph, but ultimately get beaten most weeks.

We’re ****ed.

 

We have a plethora of **** players that no one wants.

 

We haven’t got a pit to **** in so don’t get good enough players in.

 

The players we have that make the match day squad are incapable of playing without making costly errors.

 

We’re ****ed!

We're in trouble, chaps.

 

Measuring ourselves against the likes of Chelsea isn't really an accurate representation of where we're at, but our glaring basic shortcomings will be exploited by anyone.

 

The midfield can't run and get killed in transition every time, unable to get back and protect an absolute clown show of a defence and a keeper who appears to be a hologram.

 

Chelsea aren't even playing well. Tomori's having a nightmare.

 

Grim.

Honestly even Watford move the ball quicker than we do, we're so slow in possession it's painful.

Can someone tell me, along with others, how does JWP keep getting game time? Slow, **** in and out of possession and even his set pieces are rarely dangerous. We are in serious trouble, but I cannot decide yet if it’s Ralph, the players or what I think is a bit of both. Either way the people running this club need to sort out or **** off!

Similar to how I feel when I watch the 11 he puts out play like they’ve never met each other before. What the **** does he do on the training ground all week?

I think what the last few games have shown is we have side that would do pretty well in league one....

 

Ahhh well if it all goes tits up at least I will still have the derby game to warm my cockles during the cold EFL evening games.
