Rumours on social media he punched a player after the West Ham game so sacked for gross misconduct. Might turn out to be nonsense but that’s what’s doing the rounds.
The expansion is tiny in numbers and even with significant cycling facilities you would at best double the current numbers which would still be tiny. Method of transport is largely dictated by where your fan base travels in from and we have a lot outside of Brighton and Hove.
It also annoys...
Remember Villa fans telling us all last summer that he would never choose us over a massive club like them (lesson to he learned here Leeds) followed by the predictable ‘we didn’t want him anyway’.
Neal knew it made sense
Ben White
Pretty much how I feel about this. There have been plenty of players who have looked the business in the championship and struggled with the step up (which is huge) so at the moment he is still a player where it’s all about potential.
For that reason unless Leeds offer silly money...
Now we can look forward to a few months of Leeds fans talking up their return like they will be taking the league by storm before the huge dose of reality kicks in.
Next seasons Fulham and Villa
Great achievement to stay in the division in your first season at this level and with this squad. He has made some mistakes but he is a smart guy and will learn from his experiences. Back him again in the summer and can see us pushing on next season
We have just lost to the champions who have only lost two games all season (one of them to Man City) and a team who cost nearly a billion pounds to assemble (who one freak result aside) have largely been blowing teams out of the water.
Before that we had only lost 2 out of 9 games but now we...
West Ham to stay up just because we love taking points off them and Watford as Pearson could easily take them down next season.
So Norwich, Villa and plucky please
The implementation has been a disaster and they cannot continue to use Europe’s top leagues as a live testing ground to refine and develop the system. Needs ripping out and them going back the the drawing board until they have a more consistent system supported by the right rule changes
There is nothing clear and obvious about all these toes offside and some of the non offside decisions given are anything but clear and obvious. Then they miss the clear and obvious errors like the disallowed Sheff United goal.
Referees making this up as they go along. Despite the car crash...
Individual errors
We have a way of playing that Potter has the players subscribed to and he is trying to build belief in the team to stick by and develop that. The players will take a huge positive that they went toe to toe with the champions rather than shrinking into two blocks of five...
Mistakes aside I really liked the formation and way we played last night and with the number 10 role we linked play far more effectively and got the ball out wide more regularly. This is part of the reason we are seeing more from Trossard.
So for me if we setup like we did last night then who...
Difference in quality every chance gifted is scored we have missed a golden chance and made poor decisions when got into key areas. However from 10min to the 3rd going in plenty of positives for Potter to take from this
The reason we joke about predicting the line up is Potter has a different approach for every game. Sometimes that works sometimes it does not but he always makes positive in game changes when it is not going our way which in the main have worked.
With more experience he will get this right...
