Solly has always been a player that divides opinion.
Some of us believe that Solly has been one of our most consistent players for a very long time.
Comparison of his performance stats bear this out.
In my personal opinion I believe that he just hasn't developed into the type of player many of us thought he would become.
Many of our fans see this as him failing, rather than developing into a completely different type of player.
By comparison Knockaert is the type of player we thought Solly would become.
But he could be thrilling or absolutely dire at this level. More often the latter.
The thing with Solly is that he doesn't massively excel in any particular area.
He is just consistently decent at all aspects of his game.(heading apart)
I think this is why LWB suits him so well.
In regards to things that players find amazing in training but crowds don't.
I think that just shows the difference in what crowds see as valuable from a player.
Solly's ability to control a crossfield pass is exceptional, but often warrants little more than a ripple around the crowd.
Whereas Lamptey's ability to run fast will get a crowd off it's feet 10 times out of 10.

Watched a couple of Championship games today, think I might warm up with Everton beating Citeh, you never know...
We should beat Newcastle tonight, but I predict it could be a draw..

Mill Lane Cardiff will be packed tonight with celebrating Cardiff fans,,,,,,,,,Er no it wont...
Uhoh. I'm already seeing potter out threads being bumped (well, the still in denial one), people posting as if it's a foregone conclusion we're safe. I hope that is as right as this post gets.

I highly doubt it will but It would be very Brighton for this to happen. If the players can maintain focus then we're as good as safe but we've definitely had examples in the past of us getting a good result, the players thinking its job done in terms of PL survival & then the quality quickly drops. Things can quickly change, especially as we now have 3 difficult games coming.
Just for the record no olive branches or threads bumped by me!
(And i definitely don’t think we’re 100% safe yet, but we’ve got one foot in).

A quick free-kick by Lingard before the Arsenal defence were ready to make it 2-0.
Why don't we ever try something like that?

WTF is going on in this game? Should be 10-10. Defending is woeful.

It's Kane being Kane.
It's Dean being Dean.
It's Villa being a one man shite show.
Brilliant, and enjoying Neville too.

Kane being Kane, and Dean being Dean. Well put. That's never a penalty but, between them, they've made it so.
