Bcos we can only play one way and when that is nullified we are shocking. I wonder how they are prepared for games like during the week? Conte was on about have more time between games now to prepare the team. I reckon this past week they must have been all sat on a sofa watching day time tv. Woeful performance considering what’s at stake. We are home but never once played like the home team. Certainly didn’t come out fired up. Basically reaper of AV FH but for 90 minutes. Did they not learn anything from last week?The lack of energy is bad enough, then the lack of any decent passing but just looking so clueless when we’re anywhere near the final third of the pitch is shocking.
Disgrace? Calm down mate, you’ll do yourself a mischief.all the So called fans that are moaning about kane going to the masters are a disgrace
I think it was unprofessional and it showed a lack of respect towards Brighton.I think it showed contempt for the team and the manager. Harry is becoming another Ronaldo/Pogba style prima donna......doesn't bode well for the future.
Totally we watching the gane and could predict where the ball was gonna go next. Either dier to Romero who will hold on to the ball for ages at walking pace and he’d give it back to dier. There was one sequence where they must have knocked it between themselves at least 10 times. We complain about other teams wasting time but we wasted so much time absolutely f all with the ball.how pathetic were we passing back and sideways all game
Bcos last 3 managers basically want to play counter attack football with no build up through the lines especially when we are at home against lower teams. Hence we often make these teams look like prime barca.Complete and utter shit performance. Season after season, we can never learn how to pass the fucking ball under any slight bit of pressure.
Are you serious? Brighton played the better football all game. They passed better , run faster and had purpose to their game. We had nothing no movement, no pace and certainly no intensity. Potters trans play good football and I think most footballs fans would agree. If they could put the ball in the net more they’d be top half easily. Any way the anti football was played by us with dier and Romero just knocking the ball to each at snail pace.And some of you Cunts wanted Potter.
If you want to pay to see anti-football then crack on.
What an embarrassment to football.
Spot on. Fuck golf. Fuck holidays. Time and a place, and that wasn’t it.Agreed. The golfing holiday between games is a bigger deal than some admit.
How about some thing drastic like just olaying a back 4? Put kulu in the 10 position and play 3 up top.If we don’t solve the RWB issue we’re in trouble.
He has to give Moura or Bergwijn a go there. Emerson looks like a competition winner.
My reaction was that we've had to rely on others doing us favours (as we will have to do again midweek)What was your reaction at spurs full time..then what was it at Southampton Woolwich full time. That says it all. It could have been worse...United closing us didn't help but hopefully Liverpool and Chelsea respectively help us mid week

If that was the Carrot... They all deserve the stick!Pretty infuriating that we had a week between the games a couple of days off aside we were not raring to go . This was a real chance to pump up the pressure and as the goons result showed a win would have really put us in the box seat. But no we turn in an abject display not taking charge of our own destiny back hoping others fail and now face a tricky match next week .
Does that include the falling over bit every time we had possession...Are you serious? Brighton played the better football all game. They passed better , run faster and had purpose to their game.

It did have a pre-Season feel to it.... Not one of the players seemed to have ANY urgency to get a win.I honestly think the weather made the players too relaxed. The sun was shining, we had top 4 in our hands, everyone was raving about us and the opponent had lost 6 of their last 8 matches. It was a nice warm day against little Brighton and we played like it was a preseason friendly.
I think those two throw-ins where Reguilon took literally a minute to throw the ball, summed it up. There was no urgency, no intensity. They played as if the result didn’t matter. If it had been pissing with rain I think it would have at least made the players ready for battle. But instead the warm sun seemed to put them all to sleep. I think even Conte mentioned the weather in the press conference after, it’s sad that it should be a factor but to me it was obvious. The players played like they were on the beach and CL was already secured.
Inthe PEH was our “best” player certainly showed for the ball much more than benta who basically disappears and offer very littkebto the defenders for an option.of all the players you criticise Hojbjerg??
Romero, Emerson, Reguillon, Davies, Bentancur, Kulusevksi, Kane were all comfortably worse
Crumpets then?I was right with you until the bit about the toast!
