What has that got to do with it, he’s like an amateur Rowan Ince.

That's the problem. It's only been the first match against a side that was an 8-0 loser today.
EDIT: And Andone was part of it.
Not renowned for your patience I take it? Brand new way of playing incorporating youngsters into the team but youre not prepared to give them a chance? I assumed with the huge change of direction we would lose quite a few of our opening matches so I'm pretty happy.
Good point but we can’t keep playing well , dominating games and not scoring or winning , it will cost us eventually

Excepting that the dire home performance was as much down to our line up and approach.
Newcastle were dire because Potter outsmarted Bruce. Albion didn't win because they didn't make the most of their chances and the goal line was a little thick.
Alzate at wing back ? Madness.
Alzate at wing back ? Player of the match.
Hope Alzate gets another start after that. He looked great and looks comfortable in that space behind the striker.
Totally agree. If Burn had, say, 2 assists, fair enough. But he hasn't. Yes he has a good touch for a big man, but it isn't about that, we have THREE defenders and they need to defend. Might seem folly as we haven't lost but i'd play Duffy, Dunk, and the excellent Webster from now on, build from the back and put less pressure on our midfield to defend.
Wouldn't say it was domination. Newcastle intentionally surrendered position. They wanted to hit on the break. Brighton did well not to get sucked in. Good tactical match but not very open. Both with virtually 5 in midfield it was never gonna be pretty. A point is good
Why have all the miserablists appeared?
So many positives tonight. Potter has only been a PL manager a handful of games and we’ve already impemented significant, positive changes.
Watch Sky now ... a lovely, long interview with Potter, learn something about our club, what’s going on.
Stay positive.
You think we can get one of those "The Fly" switches done with Burn & Ryan? So their DNA can be mixed and Ryan gets some height and Burn gets some of Ryan's quickness.
Ok we didn’t score but this team plays good football, proper and Stephens are unrecognisable footballers from last two years, we have three ball playing defenders (wow), our captain looks really down when we got a draw away from home (compared to last season where we’d be happy), young players coming through who don’t look out of their depth, players to come back, a little bit of luck (stupid red mist sending off, late goal, goal line clearance) and we’d be in top 2 or 3. And think we did ok at Man City when others got hammered. So everyone just cheer up, this is going to be a good season.
