PEARSON Posted November 3, 2015 Share Posted November 3, 2015 I thought Brighton were a very good team. Solid, patient, good at pressing, good at keeping the ball. Its a good point for us against one of, if not the best, team in the league. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

owlse Posted November 3, 2015 Share Posted November 3, 2015 we matched them and imo we should have won, shows we deserve to be up there Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Binky Griptite Posted November 3, 2015 Share Posted November 3, 2015 We didn't look good, they didn't look good. Lots of tippy tappy with little penetration from either team. I think the word of the day is neutralisation. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chris_B_SWFC Posted November 3, 2015 Share Posted November 3, 2015 They were top for a reason Yet come 5pm Saturday we could be 5th and 6th with just 4 points between us. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

townend_owl Posted November 3, 2015 Share Posted November 3, 2015 (edited) We didn't look good, they didn't look good. Lots of tippy tappy with little penetration from either team. I think the word of the day is neutralisation. I'd say we both looked good, as opposed to not looking good. Found it actually very entertaining.

Salmonbones Posted November 3, 2015 Share Posted November 3, 2015 (edited) I came away thinking if we were a bit smarter we could easily have won. Sure in the second half they had some big periods of pressure but still. I think we are better than tonights performance. We are still too eager to move the ball backwards when a perfectly good forward option is available - sure that's me being over negative but I think we gave brighton too much respect tonight.

Bathgate Posted November 3, 2015 Share Posted November 3, 2015 I thought Brighton were terrible to say there top of the league. Could of and should of won that game Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bluesteel Posted November 3, 2015 Share Posted November 3, 2015 Neither team fancied losing which I predicted. A point away is better than one at home so I think they'll be the happier. Two games on the trot now we've allowed ourselves to get a bit frustrated in breaking teams down. As said above its a compliment that teams now do this, but we need to crack that if we want to keep our momentum Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Fast Forward Posted November 3, 2015 Share Posted November 3, 2015 (edited) Three very difficult home games and no goals conceded. Two wins and a draw,I'm happy with that. Edited November 3, 2015 by Muffin Owl Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We didn't give Arsenal too much respect last week Just seemed we cancelled each other out and I guess both teams as the game went on were more afraid of dropping one point and their unbeaten run as opposed to gaining two.

goodytheowl Posted November 3, 2015 Share Posted November 3, 2015 Boro were a lot better, came and went for it, seemed like they had 14 players Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
OhForAnotherShez Posted November 3, 2015 Share Posted November 3, 2015 BBC website: "A drab goalless draw" flip me! Thought it was quite good - 2 good teams Some great flowing moves, but no goals, so I guess it must have been 'drab'!!!!!!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BRADDAZ Posted November 3, 2015 Share Posted November 3, 2015 (edited) Brighton were a very well organised & hard working side. Each player knew there roles and they clearly had a plan and way of playing, which they implemented tonight. You can see how they've not lost a game, but you can also see how they've drawn so many recent games. I think we slightly shaded the game, but not enough to win. Too many of our attacking players (Joao, Forestieri & Wallace), weren't quite at their best tonight. Bannan was magical yet again though.

Daavies; Posted November 3, 2015 Share Posted November 3, 2015 Their entire defence were extremely impressive tonight. They gave us nothing and kept the ball very well. Both centre halves bullied Joao and Forrestieri but I think Lees and Loovens looked equally as strong. Two strong teams and I think it was always going to be a tight game tonight. I don't think any attack minded players can come off tonight thinking they played their best. Football is mainly about the attacking players these days so, as a defender myself, I enjoy days when the defences are on top. There will be a lot more room for our creative players on Saturday where I hope we can find our zip again. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
townend_owl Posted November 3, 2015 Share Posted November 3, 2015 We will find this happening more and more as the season progresses. We had a few nearly moments and with yet more time together I'm sure our attacking element will continue to improve. We're looking really good at the moment Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BRADDAZ Posted November 3, 2015 Share Posted November 3, 2015 Boro were a lot better, came and went for it, seemed like they had 14 players Yes but this Wednesday team now is far better than the one when we faced Boro. Completely different proposition and you would see a very different Boro side if we played them now. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
