Another status check on the growth of our team from year to year (small sample size this year). Look at the significant growth in every metric - except possession, which while still high, will be something interesting to follow alongside our goals

Obviously great but I still can’t believe anyone understands this shit.

The in game management when the pendulum swings is still lacking.

The system and the tweaks lately have been good. But it's all for nothing if he stands with his hands in his pockets at certain times

We've gone back to everything being down the sides again. It's too predictable and easy for the opposition.

How not to manage a game. Games ebb and flow and you have to react and adapt. Just stupid to belligerently play one way regardless of the circumstances.

Glad I didn’t get carried away after beating a shite Man Utd side with an even more tactically naive manager than ours

He didn’t exactly have many options to change the game. A bench made up of defensive players and children.

Ange isn't the first manager we've had who doesn't react until 30 minutes after a problem has arisen, but it's the most frustrating thing to watch play out in front of us.

It was obvious from the first kick of the second half that we were in trouble, yet nothing was done from the bench until it was far too late.

Just when you think he’s got us back on track…we can’t keep having games like this. He’s got the season to figure it out.

I think he wanted the players to sort this out themselves as part of the growth of the team but that didn’t work tonight.

Brighton were also very good in the second half.
