interesting discussion on the bus on the way home today... CMS is the worst player in our squad and shouldn't be playing... he isn't good enough.

interesting to see how people see things so differently.... I disagreee totally with this statement. how many more bloody times are we going to play 1 up front all the time. Vokes was suppose to come in and help him... well he can't help him sitting on the bench all the time!!!

As for Vicente, different class to anything I have seen in a Brighton shirt for a very long time... His touch and composure on the ball is just in a totally different league to anything else, doesn't give the ball away and his vision is just unreal.

Keep him fit and we will be in the play offs, i have no doubt.

Just because someone watches football does not mean they know anything about it. They are entitled to their opinion of course. But some people's views on the Albion are simply best ignored.

CMS is f***ing amazing, dont care what people say, i bet he runs around more than half some teams put together, his work rate forces people into making mistakes, that have won us games, so f*** em

Get him some help.... 4-4-2 at home... yes we are on a good run at the moment at home, however we can't keep keeping clean sheets and hoping to nick a goal with our current tactics... we need to get some help up front...

Some people are completely clueless , the guys untouchable - people are just getting on his back due to lack of goals recently - but no question the effort and skill he brings to us.

So how does he score (as you suggested) if rested (as you suggested)?

Well he needs a kick up the ass like other players his a striker his job is to score goals his not doing it, bring in another striker make his place feel threatened many clubs do it.

I can run around a lot ... any chance of a go?

TBF he looks out of sorts to me ... his first touch isn't the best. I'd like to see him and Vokes together but more than that he needs someone sitting behind that can put the balls through for him to run on to - Vicente is the man! I reckon Sparrow and JFC have tried but he gets such little space the pass needs to be pinpoint in accuracy. The difference between Champ and L1 footie methinks

Several times today he span off from his marker & created space for a through ball which never arrived but he never gave up. He just needs the service.

Haha so many morons in the stand screaming for 'more strikers' as soon as they went down to 10 when anyone with half a footballing brain knows that the way we play is even more effective when playing against 10. But you're right, let's bring a striker on and go long shall we? We are what, a point of the playoffs? yet clueless mongs in the crowd are still harping for the beloved 4 4 2 'get it forward' approach, because of course they know more than gus and the coaching team. The bloke spouting this shit for 90 mins today then went on to shout about he had 'never heard of Vicente' before we for him. Obviously knows a lot about the game.

100% this.

Yes he isn't getting the goals we all thought he would but he is putting in a shift game after game. If we can get start Vokes and CMS together he might get a few but at the moment he just isn't getting the chances, seems like he is more interested setting them up than trying to put them away himself.

You dont need to score loads to be a great front man. If you are disrupting defences and making spaces for other players to score through then you are doing your job. I dont think there are many BHA fans who think he should be dropped, certainly not me.
