Totally agree cracks starting to show on the recruitment front. You can lose key people like Sam Jewell and Winstanley and expect to carry on unearthing diamonds. Rutter is not a 40 mil player
Seriously? I guess your one of those that were writing off Bissouma and Mac Allister ofter a few games too. Players take time to settle and grow into a team no matter what their price was. I'll be patient again.

The new players are very disappointing! Rutter, not sure what he does. Minteh, looks like he has just taken up the game - a poor mans LuaLua and Wieffer seems to spend most of his time giving the ball to the oppo! The coach needs to grow up on the line - ridiculous to be sent off today.

Decent performance. Unlucky not to win this.

Forest are a decent enough team though, defended well with a good goal on the break, as per their game plan.

We need to get better at finishing teams off at home.

Still, we remain unbeaten this season and another point on the board. Don't know why some people are getting so pissed off.
I'm not sure about decent performance. We were very poor in the final third and completely open to the counter. They only had 4 goal attempts but still managed 1.27xG against our 0.84. We didn't create good chances despite 70% possession.

Yes, frustrating but not a bad point considering the fact that Forest are also unbeaten. We did have them on the rack for 15 minutes at the start of the second half and needed a third.
Need some pace at the back to assist with the counter attacks.

Horrible run coming up, needed to beat Ipswich and Forest. Decision making in final third is dire. Need to replace Dunk and Veltman who seem past it now and on the decline. What happened to the fast, direct tempo of Everton away? So slow to get anything going
Whisper it but the ball pretty much bounces of Welbeck in the final third.

We're Brighton. We always make it hard for ourselves. We'll beat one of the bigger teams to make up for the very poor 2 points from 2 easy home games.
