That is 3 games now Potter has tactically outdone Bielsa.... In my opinion and incredibly Brighton fans booed him at the end.
Even Beckford said if Brighton had a proper centre forward they would have beaten us 5 or 6.
I think Bielsa over thinks things and God knows why he preferred Firpo to Struiyk and playing KP at the back against Spurs may have worked but not today and KP didnt look happy and we missed his influence in the middle. Hopefully he isn't injured and can return against Palace in his preferred position.
Also I don't think 3 wingers works and iether James or Harrison have to make way and Raphina can get more of the ball because tonight was his quietest game.
I love MB. But the idea that he and he alone sits atop the managerial God pedestal is daft. He is amazing. But the Prem has several managers who are clearly better. And others (Potter) who have outsmarted him. MB's just one of many very bright minds in this league.
And before Lowlife comes on and bangs on about people agreeing with him by saying it was poor tonight, we have earned the right to criticise, you feckin haven't.

Sorry how does that work, think I'm just ahead of you lot
It wasn't a great game. Do I think that means Potter outthought Bielsa? Not a chance. It's not Bielsa's fault players can't string two simple passes together.
Meslier MOTM. Think Roberts demonstrated some of what he can bring to the table.

Firpo is fooking awful.

No, he's a good player. Freezing evening with a buffeting wind at the back-end of a British November, probably not a match he was likely to be at his best ( I know I wouldn't ) . I think he's a likable, capable and crafty player who'll be a real asset to the squad when fully fit and acclimatised.

He usually does, unfortunately scoring isn't one of them.
