Again opinions, Bart was exposed for all three goals imo. Henderson made some fine saves but none were as close and simple as the ones Bart was exposed to and none were one on ones. We were absolute dog shit in defence and Palace were imperious imo
Justice
Dangerous Idiot
Apparently beating a crap ten man Leicester side made up for all of that
Will have to agree to disagree.
Bart’s biggest weakness is aerially, Palace sussed that and pressured him under th bar on corners, lots of crosses…..
Expect the same next weak.
He needs to be stronger and attack the ball wherever possible.
Edit
Henderson made one great save.
The Dunk one is a miss as bad as Adingra at Fulham, the last one fairly routine.
I’ve heard Dale Stephens, Davy Propper, Jahanbakhsh and DJ Jurgen have actual Potter shrines at their homes where they regularly give thanks for their stellar post Brighton careers.

He also needs a defence who protect him, not leave him against a striker with a clear run on goal!
Come on, as a defender, you MUST see that
Yes, hence the Duffy comment, neither Dunk or JPvH helped him.He also needs a defence who protect him
Well yes, he was the best man for the job when RDZ went and should have got it then but that ship has sailed now. We’ve gone all in on Fabian and the German back room staff so we need to support him and hope he builds on some of the early promise he has shown and learns from the mistakes.

And how many of those would be first choice in an FH team?
100% this. Two years to turn round the style of play, followed by our first top ten finish and left de Zerbi with an open goal for 6th place and the Europa League, which, TBF, he grabbed with both hands.
Nevertheless, we're not looking for a new manager at the moment, so all that's irrelevant. I suspect (with no evidence at all, just a hunch) that TB and PB would probably be of the 'never go back' persuasion - but if at any time they did decide to go back to Potter, they could do a lot worse, and I for one certainly wouldn't be one of those ranting and railing against it.
Well, Dale Stephens has been quite outspoken in his admiration for Potter.
But yes, a Potter management isn't necessarily great if you're a 30+ has-been with questionable attitude. That may well be true.
I don't think Graham Potters lack of popularity in the Locadian househould is something obstructing his return to Brighton. If anything its a plus that he can see when a player is donezo.
I'm afraid it's f*** Off.I have my tin hat at the ready…but he is a much better manager than FH is at the moment imo
Available too
Still, there are a couple of pea-brains who are clamouring for the return of the Tories NOW! on the politics threads.
Apparently Fab is the worst manager Brighton have had in 50 years.
There isn't even anything to eat at half time, if you are a farmer.
It. Is. A. Disgrace.
Well, we had a goalkeeper who keep for all crosses and was the best in the league at collecting them. Unfortunately this meant that once or twice he came out wrong so we all started to hate him and brought in Jason Steele due to his great ability to do pointless oompa-loompa ball in his own penalty area.
Verbruggen better stay on the line and concede those headers if he doesn't want to be everyones hate object.

Fair enough, f*** off is the logical go to I accept but let’s not claim I have suggested that he is our worst ever manager, maybe our worst ever PL manager though, certainly the most naive. He’s very young, don’t you know.

You’re so pathetically kneejerk, like so many other entitled ‘fans’. We’re on a bad run at the moment, agreed. A few weeks ago we were on a good run, with victories against Man City, Newcastle, Bournemouth etc. It happens. It’s football. You know it’s ridiculous to blame the coach for all that happens on the pitch, and you know it’s ridiculous to change the coach every time a team has a bad spell (usually several times a season). The answer idea to solve the problem and continue to improve. Don’t panic at every bump in the road. Look at the bigger picture.

I don’t need a lecture from a johnny come lately, but thanks for your input.
I am nowhere near “entitled” having followed this club since 1975 either, just pissed at how naive our current manager is
