Stop the abuse, I've edited many past posts to try and be reasonable about it all, but I'm not sitting here editing anymore.

And yet you seem happy to allow a Palace fan to masquerade on here as a Brighton fan? Seems strange and he seems fair game to me wouldn't you agree?

it looks like we are starting to wake up. 2 goals and 3/4 of a half too late.

Clearly we are trying to outdo Bradford City by coming back from 3 down

Yup. JFC is a weak link. Never said it before, but with the step in in class you can really see it.

Anyone know why we're not pressing or tackling?

Because Hypia gave the pre-game team talk?

Arsenal cut apart the Premier League champions last week in the same manner, so we shouldn't be too critical of our team. They're clearly demoralised at 2-0 down it will be interesting to see how we react for the rest of the game. Hopefully we'll be brave and have a go.

Definitely this. They also tore Stoke a new one the previous week, and they're never the easiest team to play.

I think the trouble is the Arsenal players aren't standing still! Come on give us a chance.

Oh shut up with your ****** accusations. I admitted I like Arsenal. I didn't think it was a big deal. Just forget about it. I just said I stuck 5 on us to grab a 2-2 draw. It's a long way from over this game.

The problem is they're just that good. You might not want to admit it and we all love the romance of the cup, but their movement gives them the space. Our lads could try and battle all they like, but Arsenal's movement give them the space.

Have to say though, wrong game to play JFC in. He looks utterly lost out there.

Agreed I think he's touched the ball once!

I know we're playing a far superior side, but what the hell was the game plan here? We have been absolutely dire.

They did not 'cut apart' Man City, they were organised, defended well and countered and had far less of the ball. Arsenal are in complete control here and we're letting them walk around us.

can we not start an attacking movement without passing the ball backwards?
