Wait, only 4 mins? Brighton getting robbed lol
I’m yet to see a performance that suggests Evan Ferguson is worth £20 million, let alone £100 million
I gotta hear this commentator everyone keeps talking about lol
Where is Kovacic
Is he suspended
Benched, he was horrible against arsenal
Rodri is back
Same place as Grealish and Phillips. No space for those who don’t perform.
“He just gives the goalkeeper the eyes.”
Literally staring at the ball for the entire run up to the shot.
I’ve never understood that expression tbh. Even during pens why would the keeper be looking at the striker’s eyes?
Eyes can indicate where a person is shooting
Phil Foden is already world class
fati looks very wholesome
That didn’t take long. Shocking defending.
Brighton is such a binary team this season. They destroy their adversaries or are completely destroyed lol
What a finish by fati and what a dribble by mitoma
Walker actually got done
This could be a dangerous match for my running irl bit of solely referring to Mitoma as “our lord and saviour Kaoru Mitoma” when talking about him. Don’t know why but after that movie where the lame Spider-man guy was a missionary in Japan the concept of a Japanese Jesus just amuses the shit out of me.
Brighton wearing Sassuolo’s kit
Brighton Seagulls are my favorite type of seagulls
Poor competition sure but still
Oh my god Mitoma doesn’t look completely gassed, tears in my eyes
