Not entirely sure it was offside. Yes his foot is beyond the villa defender BUT what is not clear and is not shown on VAR is the position of the ball when it was passed across. If it is ahead or level with Gross's foot then he is not offside.

I remember webster and his surging runs. I remember pervis's cracking shots at goal . BUT as a defensive pair on the left side the just haven't a clue and went missing at crucial times today. Is Barco the answer?

bazball - dezerbi ball - comparable in several ways discuss.

No brainer surely? Someone add a poll - my it skills aren't up to it!

Man city will give liverpool a guard of honour. It still rankles that Southampton couldn't do the same for us back in the Withdean days - pathetic and showing a complete lack of class.

Thats all we need to beat West Ham . All lacking vs Bournemouth after Ramsdale made his lucky one handed save. Come on you blues !

Well that was just awful - worst performance this season. A bunch of arrogant , clueless and lazy players out there who deserve to be docked wages. Potter failed to motivate them for a competition he has publicly stated he values. - obviously more than the the players did. Stephens walking...

Knew how sheffield were going to play but didnt know how to combat them.2 subs at HT says it all. Let down by Webster and Srephens today. First time this season he has been out thought.

Am I alone in thinking that Shane does not appear very comfortable with the new system and this has been reflected in his performances so far this season ? 3 big clearance headers missed against west ham last week and some responsibility for the first saints goal. I would not be surprised to...

What happened to the 'game theory' thread which has mysteriously disappeared since Watford lost 0-6 yesterday . It was suggesting that Watford was the way to go in terms of attacking football, long term planning etc. Look where that got them. It makes our 0-1 defeat in the semi -final...

Will be interesting to see how Hughton reacts to the dire performance on Saturday - arguably the most important game to get right is Bournemouth on the 13th so who plays at Chelsea ? rest players for the semifinal?.... mmmm perhaps not but does he go with the same or does he give Kayal . Izzy...

Does he qualify to play for us next season, having spent a year in Europe or are there more hoops to jump through? And will brexit make any difference?

Dunk has been immense for us BUT he let Kane get away from him in almost exactly the same position as Mitrovic did in the last home game. It was suggested he had come back too early. However the solid displays from Balogun when he stood in for him make me think he should be starting at the...

With Sidwell and Kayal sidelined and Propper and Gross being 'creative' midfielders we need an old fashioned ball winner in midfield.(besdies Stephens) Why not give Molumby a go? In the game vs Barnet he was the one Albion player to get after the opposition and impressed me. He put in some good...

Any news re his return? All seems to have gone ominously quiet especially as the original prediction was that he would be back in time for West Brom. Considering our lack of strikers this is pretty crucial.

What do I know about football tactics? Probably less than 1% of what Chris Hughton knows BUT I do know that if we go to Leeds and play like we did in the first half against Forest we will be done big time. It looked like we were trying to conserve energy or something in the first half but it...

Far - sighted in helping to construct a Premier League Stadium and Training facilities at Lancing . The long-term future of the club is correctly based on developing young talent. Short-sighted however in appointing and then hanging on to a manager who has clearly lost the plot - if he ever had...

Sums it up really.I am sure the irony has escaped no-one on here. After all that has been written re excuses there are NONE. We are simply not good enough this season to go up for whatever reason - injuries; tactics; lack of motivation;not enough money spent on the squad (what happened to the 3...

simple question - when do the players report back for pre-season training? Will we have a manager at that point ? ??????

Orlandi has - not surprisingly come out in support for Gus. http://www.bbc.co.uk/sport/0/football/22529831 If Gus goes how many will he take with him? All the Spaniards , Bridcutt etc . This is the biggest concern - Gus has done a great job but we could ill afford losing our top players as well.
