What a load of w**k. Injuries, covid and prick refs like Dean will let City walk the league.

Without Lukuaku we would have lost the last 2 games, let that sink in.

I said it would be a draw. We deserved that, not good enough as usual, terrible in the final third and Pulisic continues to be dogsh*t. 

Brighton were really switched on and caused us problems all over the pitch.

Embarassing. 

We need to get guys like Pulisic, CHO and Ziyech out the door. Absolute wasters. 

Completely agree. Ziyech was the worst player tonight by far.

We battled hard there ... things are not running for us at all. Credit to Brighton.

Forwards have simply GOT to be more clinical so that late goals don't cripple us ... 

One goal is never enough. We have to score at least TWICE. 

Look at the difference when we do : 

Can't argue with that. Brighton fully deserved that point. Jorginho, Kovacic and Mount didn't show up tonight. In particular Jorginho who, again  failed when under pressure.

Mike Dean looking for any excuse to stop play when we finally look slightly threatening

Blew up on 94m 1 sec, with us attacking. What a surprise.

Title challenge well and truly over now. No way we are catching City. Too many poor performances, too many injuries, and too many tough games coming up. 

Liverpool

Tottenaham

Chesterfield

Tottenham

Man City

Tottenham

Club World Cup

 

The next month is going to be brutal.

As I said. Lack of killer instinct in attack has cost us yet again. Don't blame injuries. We had chances to make this 2-0. This has to be the 10th game or so having failed to make back to back wins.

Other than Lukaku and Mount, everyone else in the attack is afraid to take shots.

Damn only caught the last 20 mins because of work. Fair play to City we just can't match there ability to score multiple goals every single games. Big opportunity to have a buffer between us and Liverpool and we failed to capitalise.

Team running on absolute empty. 

2 more injuries. 

Hard to criticize individuals when they are clearly out on their feet, but i thought CHO, Jorginho, Kovacic, and Chalobah were all well off the pace.

why does he whistle at 94:03 when they scored in 90+1

Does not really matter. We did not look like scoring anyway, so might as well call it in.

& continuously craps the bed when he has to pass over 5m.

Odoi should be ducked wages for messing up that 2 on 1 (Hyperbole) . He lacks football Intelligence. 

Oh well, it is what it is. 

Man City are just too consistent and various things went against us in winter, contract situations, injuries and players form. Tuchel will have to come up with situations but he wil find it. 

Edit. "Solutions" not situations

Honestly baffled a few weeks ago people said he's a hinderance to the team. Him, Werner and Mount are really the only attackers with some sort of attacking instinct.

Had more than enough chances to finish it, injuries and dropped point. Liverpool will hump us on current form and injuries 

So fair this. So fair playing against a well rested side that's played twice since December 5th while we have literally had to play every three days every week in December.
Putting our players at risk while teams like Brighton got the privilege of a nice winter vacation. It's bullsh*t.

No wonder we were outplayed. No wonder at all. Jorginho and Kovacic were out on their feet since minute 30, Christensen & James got fresh injuries that will keep them out in addition to Silva and Chilwell.

Expect Tuchel to blow up in post match interviews. And my word would be be right to do so.

Nothing but disappointment. Not sure how we expect to beat Liverpool in few days by being totally dominated by middle table team at home. Next games are real "easy": Liverpool, Man City, Tottenham 3 games in a row.

It’s no way near it, but very frustrating a draw a fair result….. Brighton deserved it but we were not helped by the ref. 
 

oh well, we’ll beat the scousers

That Chesterfield game is the one that worries me...

 I must say CHO was terrible sorry to say it but He is overrated.

Unbelievably sh**y performance again. I don't understand how a team fighting for top four can have a player like Pulisic in the team not even talking about having him starting the game. Jorginho was horrible today,so was CHO. Alonso is not a PL level player. You can go on and on.
