Unfortunately I still think the main reason is Caicedo isn’t there. Either RDZ adapts or we will be more vulnerable.

Away at Plucky’s Lego Arena last season exemplified that. If ever Estupinan or Caicedo were beaten, like bats out of hell, the other would appear with searing pace to rob the Bmuff player.

He's from Merseyside, but agree he is a good referee
Just make sure you watch match of the day and see the goals properly, you’ll soon change your mind.

Made my mind up after seeing the highlights. He just doesn't come close to saving either.
Better keepers would have.
How can he save either? The first one he’s kicked the ball off his other foot and it’s gone completely in another direction, the second one he can’t see and he’s smashed it into the bottom corner. Crazy
First one is a pure fluke which wrong-footed Steele.
One of those annoying ones where your weight is going the wrong way, the ball is frustratingly close, but there's precious little you can do about it.

Yea I agree, awful situation he was trying to sweep it into the bottom right corner with his left foot and it’s hit is standing foot and gone the other way no time to react at all for Steele.

I did wonder whether it was down to England trying to poach him but that has now moved on.
It looks to me that he is not fit as though he has no energy wonder if he had COVID recently. That said he is playing far too deep for my liking of the three forwards (Wellbeck, Pedro and him) he is the natural goal scorer.
Don't be silly.

Wtf maybe having covid really ??
He’s played a hell of a lot of high intensity first team football this year for his young age. I’ve said for a while he needs a break from first team football for a bit - both Brighton and Ireland.

well i'm thinking we came away with a good performance, -1 GD away at Man City. it's not that bad.
and hopefully we'll never see Milner at RB again, needs to play defensive midfield to benefit his copious experience.

Felt half time couldn’t have come soon enough we were all at sea.
We really looked decent in the last 25 minutes after Gilmore came on.
Didn’t really deserve a point but we also got one
A better keeper like Sanchez?
Hes been absolutely rubbish since pre season. One incredible performance this season. The rest rubbish. Lot of pressure for the kid.

The score is almost respectable, away at City... but from what I could make of it on the radio, that masked a below par performance.
Our players seem a bit jaded , several have been in places around the world in the break, but that must be the same for other teams.
Perhaps we we are not really as good as we thought we were?

We are probably about the 8-10th best team in the division. If anything we've overachieved so far this season.
