At Brighton

[Swiss]

Do you think its cause we only had 1 preseason game and our 90 min fitness is not there

Kyle Walker is a big miss. Nunes and Lewis are not the answer. I agree it is scandalous that a RB hasn't been brought in

Whilst KW wasn't the only problem, his turn of paced had noticeably declined and that's what used to get him put of positioning Errors.

He also had a habit of switching off at crucial moments

But yes, a young, fit walker is what we need.

I still think our CM need to do more to help out the defence

If I'm in positive mode (I'm not) Rodri was very good, Trafford was good, where was Marmousch, did we bring on Doku (really: never saw him), Bobb was bobbins. Khusanov promising but needs improvement.

Where was Reindeers, what was Bernardo, where was attacking I repeat did we even really want to attack Brighton. Teams take time to build but that performance indicates structure before skill and player ability; sucking the life out of the talent we have on that field. Pep was a cut out on the side lines.

Finally, where was the team, team spirit and a will to win?

No we done the same against Al Hilal in the World Club B Cup, and Spurs. Is not fitness, it's desire.

Shite at the back as usual

[Hesperus]

Given Arsenal and Liverpool will likely lose 4 games in total this season, we've already lost 2 in our first 3 games!

Thank god for the upcoming international break, I can now relax for 2 weeks.

Pep still seems very positive about the season. It is hard for me to understand why. But he is the football genius.

[KunDB]

I am at a loss as to why we are linked with Donnarumma as he's totally useless with his feet.

At least there is hope Trafford can learn and improve.

Next three games are Rags, Napoli and Arsenal.

[Hesperus]

Next three games are Rags, Napoli and Arsenal.

That does not look good!

[gavin]

It concerns me that Pep comes out and says that we played well for 60 minutes. Well we seemed to be in control of the game sure. But never did we look like we would kill them off. It looks all too similar to last year. We fail to make the most of our domination of the ball and then we are a soft touch at the back.

[Hesperus]

I get why Pep is saying what he's saying, and he spoke in the same way last season, but he isn't fooling anyone, probably most importantly he isn't fooling the players. We're 3 games in and he's already under big pressure.

Get the stress levels down
