Exactly what I've been trying to say.95% of my frustration is squarely focused on Levy forcing us into a situation where we have no senior CBs and Hojbjerg has to play major minutes for us.
But my only frustration with Ange all season has been his seeming unwillingness to bed in youth players. Even with all the injuries the only untested/academy players to get any minutes are Veliz and the scraps Donley has got. If we’re building for a future and are willing to sacrifice short term results for it, why not play the players who will be part of that future?
I understand why he didn’t play Dorrington/Phillips from the start tonight as they have no prem experience, but part of the reason for that is on Ange. What if they’d had 6/7 bench appearances over the season already and felt ready to come in? It’s paid out off for Brighton, why can’t we do it?
It's been a free hit all season, give them minutes, see if they can swim.
Brighton have got minutes for many in their youth. Utd same. Barcodes same. Not one of the has been thrown under the bus.
Use them give them a chance, we learn nothing from PEH passing backwards or royal panicking into another wrong pass.
