I know, I just keep thinking what am I missing about him. I am waiting for him to prove me wrong. I thought he was fortunate to get so many games under Hughton too.

What extra does he actually give us???

For Hughton IMO, defended well and offered more coming forward. Quite rated him. Sorry.

As I say since Potter, he has struggled to do even basic things.

We were never going to win the thing and not likely any fans - or many - will be able to watch the final anyway so who gives a ****. United's second string is better than ours, quelle surprise, if I were a United fan I'd be worried that they've been largely shit again for a team hoping for champions league

Have Utd broken sweat though

Molumby has looked decent and thought Ali was good when he was on. Not many others to take positives from. Burn, BernaNO, Dunk, White, Veltman,Gykores all poor.

Yeah Molumby has done really IMHO. Fred and McTominy might not be world beaters but they're very competitive CMs.
Ali J again shown he can contribute (certainly feel he is an option for Connolly when things aren't happening for him). Alex Mac will be a good player, very classy but i reckon he needs another loan now we're out of this.
White looks a bit disinterested.

Another unwelcome record for the Albion tonight? Dumped out of two different competitions at the same time?

Thought we played well in patches. Blooding some youngsters and they had to bring on big guns. 25 ish players used and every one has looked decent at times. Keep the faith. Not too fussed about the result.

But this wasn’t entirely ‘our second string’ was it?

Dunk,
White,

Burn ... to be fair.
Veltman ? Supposedly a pound shop world beater...

...

Maupay,
Trossard.

We’re miles off a top ten club. Miles... we’re another two towns down the road ffs.

GP picked a side he thought could win.

Should that worry us?

That obviously went with Covid in my opinion.

Squad needs serious investment for that to ever become a reality and clearly we aren’t in a position to spend.

This is a B team and when you look at the quality of players, we were not at United’s class. No shame in that when you look at the players on the pitches

West Brom drew against Chelsea scoring 3
Palace beat a poor Utd team at old Trafford is that perspective enough for you ?

No we’re Brighton. Apparently we’re still not entitled to not expect to let in 3 and lose every time we play a top 6 side. There is plenty of weakness in everyone at the moment but we’re way to soft to capitalise.

I expect for our fans, like you, to stop banging on about how well we played and were unlucky to lose. It’s getting boring and it counts for nothing.

I also don’t expect us to concede three goals at home in each of those games.

Right. So you expect nothing less then wins against Chelsea and Man Utd. Got it. Seems realistic [emoji106]

They had to bring on the big guns? Hardly.

That's fair enough, I know quite a few did rate him. I just could not see it. I would love him to be pushing for 1st team as I would someone pushing Ryan.
