    [Albion] Graham Potter

    I'm in no position to give any advice! There are plenty of coaches whose whole mantra is around generating and exploiting transitions. Armchair analysis is just that and it just deals with technical structures and patterns around how to deny and exploit space not getting a squad of players to...

    [Albion] Graham Potter

    Potter did an amazing job in creating a intelligent, coachable, disciplined squad with good tactical awareness and positioning. Potter's only real negative has always been execution in transition, in that the pace of getting the ball forward was often too slow and opportunities were spurned...

    [Albion] Are we as good as I think we are?

    Yes. Yes. Yes we are. What. A. Season. Love it.

    [Albion] New Right Back Needed

    If I had to take a Southampton full back (and I would think we'd have better options out there) it would be Livramento. ACL injuries aren't as bad as they once were and if he was back to pre-injury form and could stay fit. I think he'd be very good under RDZ

    [Albion] Can we talk about Sanchez ?

    Looked on it today. Unlucky with the pens too.

    [Albion] “De Zerbi is the first leader of football's next tactical revolution”

    I don't see it as a harsh narrative. Potter laid some excellent foundations. Intelligent use of the ball, structurally compact and a great team mentality. There are four key phases in football. With the ball, Without the Ball, Defensive Transition, Attacking transition. Potter was adept...

    [Albion] Caicedo - world class

    Not bad for a freebie.

    [Albion] Do you log every football game you go to?!

    I'd like to say I spend my time doing move valuable things, truth is I can't even be f***ed to do them let alone catalogue my life.

    [Politics] Liz Truss **RESIGNS 20/10/2022**

    I've had a few odd situations where I've explained to very clever people in very simple terms what right-wing and left-wing ideologies are (as below from wikipedia) They've without exception said that they believe more in left-wing ideology than right. The problem is that they've been force fed...

    [Albion] Will we get ravaged in the summer?

    I don't see a lot of desperation from clubs, so I'm expecting very little movement.

    [Finance] Base rate increase.

    That's the "theory", but it's an incredibly crude and slow to react mechanism. The issue here is that inflation isn't driven by the attractiveness of good and services, i.e. demand, it's driven by supply side constraints. As such, when supply side constraints ease, inflation will come down...

    [Finance] Base rate increase.

    ...and the bankers get wealthier.

    [Finance] Base rate increase.

    US based, but well put. It's the wealthy who prosper from raising interest rates and it isn't just wages that are a factor.

    [Albion] Yasin Ayari

    Obviously not a lot to go on but in his short cameo, but for me it was actually his work without the ball that impressed. Took up some good positions, made some decent runs and seemed to always find space. Some decent raw materials, there's definitely something there.

    [Football] Big Bob Sanchez

    Sanchez is a good keeper. If anyone looks at the stats for the last 3 seasons, they'd see he's pretty consistent and he pretty much saves what he should save, I wouldn't say they are excellent but they're good. On the surface it does seem a little harsh but perhaps neither him nor JS are RDZs...

    [Albion] Leeds United vs Brighton & Hove Albion *** Official Match Thread ***

    Leeds under Jesse March on paper would likely have be one of the best teams for us to play against in terms of tactical style. Not so certain now but there will be goals. If we really do have have European ambitions, we have to be able to beat teams like Leeds who are at that level.

    [NSC] R5 today,C/punishment or life term tariff.

    I guess the question is whether you think people are born innately evil or are a product of their environment. With over 25% of those in prison population having previously been in the care system (rising to near 50% of those aged under 21) I know where I'd put my money. Inequality breeds...
