I may be a bit madly optimistic but think if we do not qualify for ECL (Europa is out of our reach)and maintain and build on this squad this summer I seriously think it could work in our favour and we could have a tilt at a top 6 finish next season.
Yes and last week and the week before and after January perhaps a bit less talking about it and focusing on the task in hand might be in order. Also may just be me but don’t like managers talking about Tony needing to convince him of ambition given where he has taken this club. Just think he...
The ambition bit is just bollocks if we hold onto most of our players and add some more quality in the summer we could have a tilt at the top 6. This is nothing more than the manager flashing his knickers at the clubs he is being linked with and can’t see Bloom or Barber being impressed no...
Also intensive farming, the river Wye has been destroyed by run off from poultry farms with little or no action or consideration for the river when permitted. Used to be one of clearest most beautiful rivers now algae ridden and ruined...
Whilst Roma were hell to watch at times we have seen firsthand how to game manage and keep tricky away ties tight in this competition. This will be a huge lesson we can learn from
Time will tell if he learns but at face value he has acknowledged that last night he has a lot to think about and learn. You are right in the sense if he puts this down to injuries and squad depth and does not alter something himself he will not progress but for now I choose to believe his...
RDZ is destined for the top but not yet and think he will be with us next season as he has a lot of learning to do and no better environment to grow than at Brighton. I think we will back him in the summer and have a much stronger and experienced squad for next season.
Last night was very...
Thought he was very good but would have preferred for him to start on the left with veltman at right back as think we would have been stronger than with Igor at left back. Fingers crossed he keeps his fitness as need him for the run in
Was hoping for a home tie where we may have had to come back but had a chance of progressing but just exited the competition in a whimper looking like absolute amateurs away form home
When we turn up we are one of the most dangerous sides in the PL and Serie A is not as strong and despite their recent form they have been playing some of the divisions weaker sides (I know I know the Luton result).
If we can avoid conceding the usual early goal and play our high possession...
Nope it’s 6458 over 15s across Europe who have reported to be fairly or very interested in football!! In person research was less than a week and the rest was online questionnaire so a very robust piece of research 🤣🤣
It will be a tricky fixture for sure but Roma are not world beaters and their recent upturn in results and goals scored have been against some pretty poor sides in Serie A and the quality in that league is nowhere near the PL.
If we can keep this first tie at worst a one goal deficit I fancy...
I think we have a defensive fragility the manager needs to resolve as needing to score 2 goals to win a game catches up with you in the end. However the amount of forced chopping and changing of personnel and systems due to injuries is what’s really hampering us with our most impactful players...
Boca is a huge club in Argentina so when clubs of our history and stature from the PL come over waving what in our league is small amounts of cash that are still enough to prise away their top talent it is going to sting. My view is the grizzling is largely about the power of the PL to take...
The officials have a role to play in this as we have seen countless times if you stay on your feet or don’t do these theatrics the offending players are just not punished. Enciso popped up after he was clattered shortly after coming on yesterday and no yellow was given but if he had stayed down...
