Q. What does it mean to be decimated?
A. to reduce something severely:

decimate

/ˈdɛsɪmeɪt/

verb

past tense: decimated; past participle: decimated

kill, destroy, or remove a large proportion of.

"the inhabitants of the country had been decimated"
Yeah, but the word literally means 'to kill one in ten' and that was its original meaning. Although i assume Estupinan hasn't been killed 😱

Anyway, have we been reduced severely? We're only missing Estupinan, Enciso and Lallana, and not sure where the other two fit into this team.

From the Marseille forum

Bof le milieu est pas vraiment le point fort de Brighton, ce qui fait peur c'est plus les ailes, surtout Murillo vs March que je trouve vraiment bon. Je parle pas de Mitoma qui est capable de dingueries à tout moment. Avec Ferguson qui reçoit les centres y'a pas intérêt à ce que Mbemba ait sorti son transat des 6m en espérant être sur une trajectoire de ballon...

Well the midfield isn't really Brighton's strong point, what's scary is more the wings, especially Murillo vs March which I find really good. I'm not talking about Mitoma who is capable of crazy things at any time. With Ferguson receiving the crosses, there's no point in Mbemba taking his 6m deckchair out hoping to be on the ball's trajectory...
