Oscar - We played well

The Brighton Buzz · Oct 2, 2013

On the website this was his take on the game. I am sorry, if that was playing well I hate to think what we will be like if we play badly. I could accept it if he came out and said we played badly and will work hard to get it right, but not one player came out of the game with any credit and we looked like a team that hadn't played together before. Professional footballers should be able to pass the ball four yards we couldn't even get that right. I hope he plays Ince on Saturday and moves Andrews into a more attacking role, but I doubt it he seems to want to shoehorn Bruno in somewhere. Don't be surprised if he is in goal on Saturday.

Does that mean we also played well verses Darby?

saafend_seagull · Oct 2, 2013

As I said before, he said we played well in every game before which I said was worrying.

Not sure what he thinks of our performances under gus.

Djmiles · Oct 2, 2013

We were very good....at playing utter dog turd. Just dreadful.

BensGrandad · Oct 2, 2013

If we had taken our chance in the first half we could and should easily have been 3 or 4 nil up at half time, so I can see where he is coming from.

One Teddy Maybank · Oct 2, 2013

In fairness it is just Oscars style. He is not a media darling like Gus. His sentences are a lot shorter and he rarely elaborates, I think he will continue to reel out this type of response most of the time.

Would like to ask him what was good about it......

That performance was like any other mid week game predictable and ends 1-1

Was he sat behind a post?

If only Smith had scored.

Zebedee · Oct 2, 2013

If Oscar truly thought we played well, he's less of a manager than I thought he was. We were crap - end of.

Wozza · Oct 2, 2013

Four shots on target isn't great.

Three more than some home games under Gus, in fairness.

APACHE · Oct 2, 2013

If certain players had taken their chances we wouldn't be talking about the manager.

martin tyler · Oct 2, 2013

Players did not take the chances when we played ok for first 20 minutes.
After that we were poor.
As most pundits say you protect your team when asked questions you don t pubically slate them. I am sure he is aware there is a lot to do.

And four more than we managed at Ipswich...

You don't publicly pick out individuals for poor performances, I agree with that, but claiming the team played well when it's evident to everyone that they didn't, is not a good thing to do (only going by hearsay, I wasn't there, just a general point)

Simster · Oct 2, 2013

As much as I was f**king annoyed last night and indeed this morning, we have played every bit as badly at home in some games in the Amex years. That barren run under Gus in Amex year one was dire.

Brighton Breezy · Oct 2, 2013

The biggest difference between how poor we were in previous seasons during some games (and we were) and last night is that in the past we always seemed to have a style, a direction and a definite approach. At times it was too inflexible, but we always had one.

Sums it up nicely

That's fair comment but I wouldn't expect Oscar's style (whatever that may prove to be) to be stamped all over his team after just ten matches, especially with so many key players out injured.

Indeed. He may well be a good coach ( as a manager the jury's has to be still out) but so far he must be one of the dullest Albion managers. He's like a robot on skunk. He never says anything remotely interesting and when there are genuinely serious questions about the team and style of play which need addressing, not to even try and engage is just not good enough.
