He should question his substitutions over the last 2 matches

Last I checked the error against Manure was from a goalkeeper and the key error today was from a midfielder.
The error against Manyooo was defensive error and that led to goalkeeper error.

The second started with DMF error before the defensive error.

Remember when we used to wonder why Sarri felt he had to always bring on Barkley and it always looked like a pointless sub? Well, Maresca has this obsession with bringing on Gusto and nobody knows why.

I've never seen Gusto about to come on and thought "yeah, that makes sense, Gusto will change the game for the better for us".

Who are the players to see the game out??

Achempeong nd hatohuh
Enzo out for Acheampong
Santos out for Lavia

You can take it further and remove Estevao for Guiu (one man pressing machine) who will press for 2 and drop JP to the wing

4-4-1, it's a simple sturvs

Losing header on the halfway line is never a defensive error. The error is on the players behind him who are not danger aware to ensure Mbuemo is not through on goal. Even in University football, we always make sure we have 1 man drop 5 yards from any striker to mop up. Somehow Caicedo and Tosin were not "goalside" of Mbuemo from that header. That is a disgusting lack of awareness

Today he had no choice, the error came from Santos and taking a red with only 35 mins to play rather than a goal is the right choice

When you like a player, there's nothing you won't defend.

When you dislike a player, there's nothing you won't attack.

That is a disgusting lack of awareness. Something that was second nature to us at amateur level should not have to be explained to pro footballers. Before every match we discuss as defenders. I will go up on the striker and "clap him" - you maintain 5 to 10 yard distance to clear up anything that drops - or vice versa. From this simple rule, we did not concede from open play all season. The error in that play is highlighted below, not losing a header against a 6ft 5 striker

That was a defender error. A Defender ought not to commit himself to an aerial ball if he is not sure of winning it and he should have second option should incase he loses the ball.

That's what a good and experience defender will do.
Besides, other defenders tried to set offside trap which also backfired.

Are the players behind him not defenders?

That buttress my point that it was a defensive error before goalkeeper error.

We are still saying the same thing in regards to today's game. DMF error before defensive error.

Lavia is unfit n u want him vs a raging Brighton...shey d lavia came on n we still conceded


Guiu to do whathuh When we are struggling with 10men??

What has Guiu played since he was bought to warrant seeing a game off wt 10menhuh


Santos that was the architect of the red card even at 11 men...


Whatever decision u think would have flawed cos the defence were too inexperienced to see the game off

Defenders lose aerial duels all the time. You only have to look at any opta stats, there is no defender with 100% win rate, not even 70%. The reason goals are not scored whenever they lose is because their teammates maintain appropriate distance to clear up the drop which Caicedo and Tosin failed to do

The way the "attack over defence" proponents have been pulling disappearing acts on this thread is nothing short of miraculous. Still not winning games and no more Jackson to blame cheesy cheesy
Jackson's direct replacement is injured. I strongly believe the absence of palmer and delap has greatly hindered us. Let's not canonize Jackson now. He was, and is still useless.

Sure!!! But a good defender will have second option. The guy lost the ball and was strolling.

The point is, as you also said, the other defenders didn't cover up for him. That made it a defensive error.

I no rate Tosin before. Caicedo can be caught by Mbuemos swift reaction as fullbacks go man-to-man, but if Tosin maintained his 10 yards deep from Chalobah as you should do as a defensive partner, he would have cleared up the danger from Caicedo falling asleep on Mbuemo

Luck cannot keep happening consecutively for 5matches ..

Stick to what you know ..

The substitutions cost us a loss and that's fact ..
This is quite generous coming from you, especially considering that your ignorance precedes you.

Since the season started, you have been grinding out wins with unconvincing performances and today you ran out of luck. The last time you defeated anyone with a 2 goal margin was 7 games ago.

Take the L and move on.

Let us agree it was a defensive error. And who's fault is it to have Tosin and average defenders in the team? Maresca?
