[Albion] What do you think our style of football is?

[London Irish]

It's the typical high-energy high pressing German game beloved of Klopp. But I don't think we quite have the players for that so it all looks a bit confusing at times when our players lapse back into their more preferred possession build-up

 

[Bry Nylon]

I think its a heady blend of styles.

Defence is Minimalism, midfield is Surrealism and the attack is Impressionism.

Well you don't remember it correctly then, you're not the only one.

Most matches had lots of decent chances to score, usually not taken

"Based on chances created, Brighton should have scored close to 27 (26.9 xGF) goals at home, but have managed just 12 – a staggering underperformance."

One word: Maupay

They hunted the ball in close, coordinated threes. Hard for us to do without pace everywhere, for 90 minutes and to maintain concentration.

Against Stains I watched both halves Pedro, Webeck and Rutter try to do it half heartedly as individuals. Easily bypassed, giving them in the second half a numbers advantage in attacking us.

Tbh I don't have a clue. Sometimes it's been quick incisive passing and at other times it's been ridiculously chaotic.

Classic NSC this... whinge when we have an absolute guarantee of Style under RDZ and cry out for a manager who has a plan B and Plan C

Say yay were awesome now we have this after winning a few games..

To immediately ask what our style is on the back a few iffy performances...

 

[Pliny the Gull]

Like to ask the players this question.
Striker or midfielder poor decision making is a player problem.
5 or 6 players poor decision making ie. Fulham, Palace, Southampton suggests another problem.
During the game, not team selection.

 

[Questions]

Whatever our style I'm against it

 

[Invicta]

Totally random, like the team selection.

Exactly, NSC was celebrating a 'pragmatic' and 'flexible' win at Newcastle as evidence of a our progression.

Now trying different things is being used as a stick to beat us with.

 

[Kalimantan Gull]

I imagine that Hurzeler is trying to find our style and is trying out a few things on the way. All perfectly normal for a new manager at a club, and of course fans everywhere recognise this and are minded to give him the time and leeway to do so.

Fabi was asked on the Albion Roar this week whether there was a particular match this season that exemplified his style of play. He answered that we had yet to sustain it over a 90 minute period which echoes the criticism that we struggle to be consistent throughout games. He said we managed for 86 minutes away at Leicester, up until they scored their first goal.
