[Albion] Nottingham Forest vs Brighton & Hove Albion *** Official Match Thread ***

[AlbionBro]

Because Hurzeler is a dick and is completely out of his depth.

Very true, youth doesn't help for sure. I think we would all like to manage this squad of players, if we lacked depth and quality I would understand.

 

[CHAPPERS]

I'm not sure why Lamptey marks anyone at corners. He's too lightweight. Put him on the edge of the box for a breakaway.

Correct. He’s marked two players for the Gibbs White header.

 

[Ethelwulf]

We looked so shit

 

[um bongo molongo]

We look a really poorly coached side. Half the players look like they haven’t got a clue where they should be. Pedro was wandering all over the place. Lots of key players looking worse (Pedro, Mitoma, Dunk). Promising players not progressing or wanting to leave.

Bloom won't get rid of an Asset unless it makes him £.

He aint gonna pay off FH, here to stay.

 

[trueblue]

As soon as I saw the lineup, I changed my score prediction from a 2-1 win to a 3-1 defeat. Wish I hadn't been so positive about our prospects...

 

[oldboyroy]

Absolutely smashed to pieces. I hoped Fab was learning but it appears he simply isn't! We look relegation fodder today although we're not in any trouble of that, we've been shown the difference between a team with a set playing style and bloody good coach to our playing style(whatever it is) and a young manager (not rookie), as he's been coaching for many years, looking out of depth.

 

[Seagull58]

Why did we sign O reilly- he is genuinely gash

We didn't.

 

[brighton_dave]

If Tony decides to get rid if Fab, does everyone defending Fab get on Tony's back, like they do to others on here? Or is it then the right decision all of a sudden?
If that is the case, perhaps have the decency to apologise to those who are abused on here, for having an opinion.

 

[US Seagull]

All those folks last week, saying the game against Everton was the worst they've seen us play, look pretty silly right about now.

 

[Normandy seagull]

Watch Fabs pre match interview- he knew this starting XI was suicide! Needs to stop playing Russian Roulette and be more compact otherwise he’s a dead man walking

What's Sami Hypia up to these days?

He is mentor to Fabian Hurzeler.

 

[Eeyore]

Fear? I f***ing hope it’s his last season.

I'm just trying to tone my response with the respect he deserves

 

[trueblue]

I'm probably alone in this, but I don't think this is all on the manager. Losing your whole midfield within 24 hours of the match, players making incomprehensible mistakes, players not taking their chances and playing a top team coming off the back of a drubbing

All fair points. It's not this match in isolation though is it? Been regressing for months.

 

[Hometownglory]

Only thing that can be worse then this is if the manager comes out and whines about the Penalty decision bearing in mind how bad his teams been.

That'll really do me in.

'Not enough intensity'...nah mate just not being coached properly.

 

[SeaGullBum]

What in gods name does FH do in training?!

This is sunday league level performance!

 

[Tom Hark Preston Park]

Bloom won't get rid of an Asset unless it makes him £.

He aint gonna pay off FH, here to stay.

He'll pay him off soon enough if our EPL place starts looking under threat

 

[BadFish]

Still at least we get to read people arguing about who was better between Gpott and Robbie D'Zee.

So there is that to look forward to. We might even get a FAB in/out poll to embarrass us further. So every cloud eh?

The might Antwerp are at home to Mechelen after our disappointing draw against Gent (I think the manager was distracted and made substitutions too late).

 

[sakooshi]

As long as we can hold on, we have conceded fewer goals in the second half so far, which indicates that we're improving.
Trust the process.

 

[Garry Nelson's Left Foot]

I'm genuinely fascinated by what we do in training?

It's clearly not defensive work/organisation. It can't be attacking as despite having numerous quality attacking players we have absolutely no cohesion. It can't be tactical because we don't have any. so what the actual f*** do we do?

I'm not in the FH out camp but if for whatever reason this time tomorrow he was no longer our manager the only sadness I'd feel would be the waste of the potential of this season. The players haven't improved individually and the team has got worse. As a team this might be the worst we've been in the premier league.

That's a pretty damning indictment and the only thing stopping me being FH out is the need for time and the fact that it'll be harder to laugh at Palace and all their knee jerk manager sackings.

f***ing abysmal.
