Blimey. Best go back to bed!!

What? You think a better team than Wolves would not have scored a handful today? Wolves had a very bad day offensively in terms of finishing.

Always said the Septics are a bit clueless!

What is a "Septic"?

What is a "Septic"?

Septic Tank = Yank

De Zerbi ball is high octane, in your face, we're going to score more goals than you and we're going to keep possession for longer periods. Ok, it might be more sophisticated than that, but it's a good surmising. That also means we are going to concede, we're going to have a few proper shit games, like Everton, that just has to be accepted (though obviously RDZ won't). We've also got a lot stronger bench this season and we're only going to get better. We can go toe to toe with the big 6/7 and take points off them. It's going to be exciting, but it's not going to be tight at the back.

Which player made the stunning pass to Enciso, leading to our third goal?

march

edit or gilmour

 

[The Fits]

Yes they missed lots of chances, as Luton did in the first half. But, if you score four goals a game, and we look like scoring that many most games, you're going to win a hell of a lot more than you lose.

 

[Triggaaar]

Nipped out at half -time for a few cans..

Missed 3 goals

Typical Brighton fan to be fair

 

[Bodian]

Ten goals against Wolves in our last two matches.

Sixteen in four!

I like the map

Rubbish - Get Rid, etc, etc.

I am aware of that. We are way off the pace from last season though in regards to controlling the game. Hopefully it is just the players getting up to speed.

In terms of "septic tank" 1) Google informs me it is cockney slang. I did not know Brighton used that? And 2) I am not from the north East of the US.

I can't believe nobody has suggested Enciso for MOTM

His best performance by far, not overdoing it, lively and the amount of closing down, big improvement, almost mature

There was a 10-minute period where Enciso was full on bossing the play, if he played like that for 90 it would have been truly exceptional, for the other minutes thought he was very good, definitely best overall performance.

Boehly now ready to buy a job lot

 

[Triggaaar]

I have to admit that I didn't think it would be this easy but we are just too good for this kind of team!

It looks like that now, but we definitely could have been losing at half-time, and their defence was poor at the start of the second. We will be dropping points to teams worse than Wolves.

We are still 2 short in central midfield

RDZ spoke about how we had to play differently without MC and not lose the ball. Easy. Play Gilmour. 99% pass completion. Class.

Great result but we did lose the ball too often and Wolves should have scored 2 or 3 first half.

HAVE!

 

[zefarelly]

It seems odd to be thinking it's our defence that needs work . . . But I that's that's because our defensive midfield has been pillaged and it'll take time for all the new boys to settle in, and everyone to understand/second guess the next team mates move/action

Solly really did bust a gut today. But what a return.

 

[Napper]

Deffo need an enforcer in there

Quality at times though

Still work to be done there though

Great start . Keep it going

 

[American Seagle]

It would indeed help playing with 13 yes

In both our 4-1 wins I’ve felt unfulfilled at the ends of the games. That’s what they’ve done to me
