[Albion] Trossard can become Potter's skeleton key at Brighton

yeah, but; we'll get beat 5-3;
and sent down

That's the spirit!

When you look back and realise that we had Murray, Andone, Locadia, Ali J, Knockeart, March, Gross, Izquierdo (albeit not last season) you do wonder how the F&ck did we only score 35 odd goals last season!
Now add Trossard to the mix plus another Striker in the Murray mold (but quicker) hopefully getting signed up then surely you have to feel a little bit more optimistic this coming season that we'll see more goals.

The tactics completely stifled their/our creativity. It'll be really interesting to see if any of those written off last season - Ali J, Locadia, March to an extent - come into their own this coming season with more favourable tactics to suit their skillset...

Down to the bare bones and the season hasn't even started.

Enough of the ribbing.

Excitement levels ramping up for the new season

I agree. As long as when we play Watford in the first game we’re not as dire as in the same fixture last season.

I know I’m alone when I think Locardio will excel this season too!

I’m in agreement, I think shackles off he could score 10 or so goals for us.

Oh no you're not !

Molumby the saviour?

Lack of midfield pace in general, little centre midfield creativity and tactics built on an excellent defence.

Molumbys heat map from the recent Tournament in Toulon is impressive. Covered every patch of grass & had serious sprints. Serious talent but pushing on now so needs to move off for 1st team game time.

I so hope you are correct but whilst I think this is true to m extent . These players played enough minutes and (at times we did get on the front foot ) to do more . Tactics don’t account for failure to control , to pass , to tackle , to shoot straight , to make the right pass etc. ( I’m mainly thinking AJ and locadia less so here )

The optimists have all said it will all be fine and it was all the tactics fault .

The slate is clean for everyone so let’s hope that’s correct !
