Yep. We should be having Pervis / Barco there next season hopefully.

Has to be the only reason, he was the best player on the pitch.

Yes but my point still stands. If he’s our starting CB then that is not good news. Back up for both positions is what he should be.

I thought it was also good to bring on a bit of muscle and a defender for Gilmour and Adingra at the end to see out the draw. Very un-de Zerbi like - is he learning?
The whole performance was plan B, despite people saying he doesn’t have one.

He was on a yellow, they were targeting him (both to clatter him and try and get a rise out of him) and RDZ had said in the week his conditioning isn't 100% yet. Taking him off was logical even tho he was our most creative player.

The majority was Plan B. There was a bit of pop, pop, popping around our midfield in the first half
I can't remember who, but one of the managers in the first half of the season said "you can't press Brighton, because the play pop, pop, pop and they're round you and creating chances". I thought it perfectly summed up what were doing when we're at our best and there were signs of that first half, and that hasn't been there for a long time.
It was nicely mixed up. lots of longer balls down the channel and goal kicks directly in to Welbeck. Little tweaks like that against pressing teams will keep them guessing.The majority was Plan B. There was a bit of pop, pop, popping around our midfield in the first half

I’d be amazed if the club isn’t doing this. Singing the new medical team seems to be an indication that they’re addressing the treatment issues, but getting fewer injuries in training would also be a bonus.

Every team in the Prem does that to Chris Wilder. You don't concede 100+goals without plenty of pop, pop, popping.

Only listening on the radio today, but from the brief highlights I have seen, it looks like we performed quite well today, against a good side. Good to see Enciso back to his best. I hope by subbing him, it means he can start V Chelsea.
Would so love to win our last two games, but worry that by Wednesday we could be down to our U21s.

Us - delaying restarts, Bart holding the ball for ages, and around two minutes of cramp during injury time.

He has accepted that defence is required.
Wrbster has got some pelters, but i thought he was pretty good.
Veltman is an exceptional defender and Dunk, knows what he's doing.
It may not sit well with RDZ.
But it makes a b8g difference to results

Yes. We want ti attack the other home end this half.

It looked like Enciso was signaling to the bench before he got took off.
