Huh?That's exactly what I see. Slow in deed and thought, and regularly giving up possession.

Igor’s are too as it happens, have been for a little while now as I checked before today’s game. Doesn’t reflect well on us.His comments are turned off on all his Brighton Instagram posts. Let's hope it's not a repeat of the online abuse Webster got.
I’ve just put myself through the torment of watching the highlights again. It’s really harsh to blame any of the players defending the Wolves counter. Igor, in particular, does really well to slow them down whilst he’s waiting for support.
Unfortunately, the blame is squarely at Weiffer’s feet. It’s schoolboy stuff, and even then I’m not sure I’d have mucked that up so badly as a schoolboy.
Although admittedly the 3 players up alongside him should’ve managed the situation more with maybe one or two staying back… but I don’t think a Premier League player can legislate for Weiffer playing that as poorly as he did, so they probably thought they were guaranteed to put the game to bed.
Yes 99/100 there is a shot. But even if there is a shot sometimes the keeper saves and starts a break. The younger players need to mature and realize the situation and play to it. Hurzeler has hinted at it already so I do think this will be a good thing long term for us.Is it? That chance was a huge xG. 99 times out of 100 you get a shot away.
This analysis suggested it comes from the coach and normally works. See “numerical advantage”

I’m sorry but have you ever played football?A player 75 yards from his own goal woefully cedes possession.
Why should that be THE cause of a goal conceded at the other end. What were the 6 other Albion outfield players doing after that? And why were so many piled forward? Shocking game management.
When I had Sky Sports I used to love the Monday evening analysis bit from 7pm to 8pm. When there was an instance of this ilk, ex players who knew an awful lot eg Neville would go through all the mistakes leading to the goal, not just the headline catching first mistake and witchunt.
Igor absolutely, did not do well, he backed off to such an extent, it was an easier shot.I’ve just put myself through the torment of watching the highlights again.

The problem is it looks like they’re all bombing in because Wieffer shows no composure to pause the play for a split second and open up everything.
In that moment, he shows
I’m sorry but have you ever played football?
What could the defenders have done differently? Some very minor things but ultimately they played the situation they were presented with as you would expect.
What you don’t expect is a player to hit a Sunday League level pass. All he had to do was pause for half a second. Showed no composure, technical ability or awareness of the situation.
To try and put any significant blame on the defenders is laughable.
I’d imagine many pro sportsmen’s are.Igor’s are too as it happens, have been for a little while now as I checked before today’s game. Doesn’t reflect well on us.
So you have no answer to what the defenders should’ve done differently then?At 2-1 the team should have been shored up defensively. If you’d ever played football you’d know that.
Not significant blame, but as per my other post, Igor should have been a lot closer, he had way too much time.The problem is it looks like they’re all bombing in because Wieffer shows no composure to pause the play for a split second and open up everything.

The team executed a very good high press to win back the ball, of course we had men high up the pitch.
You seem to think the defenders should’ve done better. Clueless.
We could have closed the break better. We could have sat in a low block.So you have no answer to what the defenders should’ve done differently then?

Still no answer Come on, tell how the defenders were more at fault than Wieffer for that goal…That’s you, obviously.
A professional football team should try to see out a win. Gung-ho piling forward is utter madness.
I appreciate the argument that they shouldn’t have all bombed forward. I agree they could’ve managed this situation better. In hindsight, Weiffer would’ve handled it better by simply taking the ball to the corner. But he didn’t. He saw he had 3 teammates to his left and decided instead to pass the ball to the one remaining opposing defender, leaving us totally open to a counter and out numbered. And I don’t blame those three players because you can’t legislate for a player playing that situation as poorly as Weiffer did. He did absolutely everything wrong, and that’s on him.A player 75 yards from his own goal woefully cedes possession.

So how don’t you score from that?Because the defenders and centre midfielders should’ve all stayed back in defensive shape, once the ball was won. Elementary stuff in seeing a win out.
Bozza’s screenshot shows 6 Albion players in their half, just 2 Wolves outfield players.
WTF.
Definitely.We could have closed the break better. We could have sat in a low block.
But you score from a four on one almost all the time unless a player loses concentration and drifts offside or unless Mats Wieffer gifts it to the one Donny vaguely attempting to defend.
I disagree having seen it back. If he commits then Cunha just plays it to the player to his right for an even easier chance than the one he scored from. I actually think Igor defended it as well as could’ve been expected given all the factors. I don’t think Dunk would’ve defended it differently or any better (although I don’t think Dunk would’ve allowed Estupinian to be as high as he was). I certainly wouldn’t be apportioning Igor even 1% of the blame I’m laying at Weiffer’s door.Igor absolutely, did not do well, he backed off to such an extent, it was an easier shot.
As soon as the Wolves player entered the area he should have been as close as possible, not continue to go backwards.
So how don’t you score from that?
