Sadly being outplayed and out fought by Brighton. This has jack to do with formations and all to do with attitude.

Many wanted Dier and we still look shit, answers on a postcard... Too many average, out of form or past their prime players out there, we truly are a mess...

I thought Joker was a grim watch until that half of football, we don't look close to scoring and are making Brighton look like Barcelona

It doesn't matter what the lineup or the subs are. Poch has lost the plot and the players are performing for him anymore.

This is what I feel as well. It really really looks like a team that won't perform at the required level for this manager. This performance is disappointing me more than Tuesday's.

I don't think much will help, but something has to change. Will Poch learn and change something ASAP? Another annoying trait of Poch, not changing things quick enough. Really don't need to wait 15 minutes here to know things need changing.

Don't think I've seen us so dejected from the start for a long time. Look completely disinterested.

The body language says it all
That is my biggest concern and issue. The body language is saying we give up. Now none of us know why this is happening but i am very concerned by it all compared to what we have seen before. It's very upsetting really to see this squad now do this and we just don't know exactly why, has there maybe been a giant bust up in the squad, are there some cliques who are going against Poch and making the environment toxic or has Poch just lost everybody and they cannot trust him anymore.

This is the worst first half performance I’ve ever seen.

The players are clearly not playing for Poch. Completely downed tools. Ive never seen it so obvious before.

I was almost egging Brighton on. I do love a good underdog story.

Is it bad I almost felt bad for Brighton when I thought Lamela would score?

Either Poch is trying to get himself sacked or the players are.

Lloris/Sissoko/Dier/Alderweireld/Vertonghen/Davies/N'dombele/Eriksen/Son/Kane/Lamela has been god awful! Sub him at half time!

Poch; "well that change obviously didn't work - back to the diamond!"
He's brought this on himself, he's not listening yo the players.

Any coach worth his salt can see the full backs have no options but to pass it back to the CB's.

Other than a world class long pass from Toby we won't be scoring.

Team just look totally unmanaged to me, either that or they really arent playing for the manager. Same end result at some point.

Just don’t understand how anyone could be so optimistic to ‘trust in Poch’. The clearest thing is how easy it is to play through us and we have no plan going forward whatsoever.
