He's much quicker in closing down and he's not as lightweight. Still only 21, potential there to stil have a very good career I thought that too, which is tbh what he needed to do. Quality hes made progress on that now. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jives Miguel Posted May 5, 2023 Share Posted May 5, 2023 Played well. I think there is a misconception around his defensive work btw. He has always been actually OK in the tackle or 50/50 department. Its the positioning and tracking of runners that he's poor at. Which was evident a few times last night, notably the chance where Antony ran past him to shoot into the side netting in the first half. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
2426255 Posted May 5, 2023 Share Posted May 5, 2023 Didn't see the game but saw De Zerbi's post match where he talked a little about his thinking for the Manchester Utd game and it seems Billy Gilmour managed to force his way into the plans based on his performance in the Brighton - Wolves game as well as being aided by circumstances (Pascal Gross and Joel Veltman being unavailable) so it will be interesting to see what happens on Tuesday. Quote Veltman, Lamptey and Pascal Gross were not able to play and I thought about changing to play with three defenders and two midfielders but I think we've reached a good level of football and we have our right technologies (application of ideas) playing in this tactical disposition and I didn’t want to change. I think Caicedo can play everywhere, he is a top player and Gilmour deserved to play after Wolves. I love giving the player the possibility to play, the chance to play, the chance to show me their quality and Gilmour was fantastic against Wolves. I thought like this. De Zerbi's reply when asked about playing Moises Caicedo at full back https://youtu.be/bECqVXDfw8I?t=75 Quote Pascal Gross, we will see – I didn’t want to take any risk with him tonight, he’s too important a player for us but you know there are a lot of players that are playing: Enciso, Gilmour and I want them to stay ready always to play because now we need everybody De Zerbi on Pascal Gross and why he didn't play against Manchester Utd https://youtu.be/bECqVXDfw8I?t=213 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jambomo Posted May 6, 2023 Share Posted May 6, 2023 It’s just good to see him follow up that Wolves performance with another good game against tougher opposition. Hopefully he’ll play against Everton and do well again. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
troopio Posted May 8, 2023 Share Posted May 8, 2023 Brighton will lose at least one of Caicedo and Mac Allister, reckon this is his audition to prove they do not need to buy anyone in and he will be the man to step in when it happens as Brighton can still qualify for Europe at this stage, these are not dead rubbers they are playing him in so hopefully he grabs his chance. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Far too many desperate to criticise not enough praising when things go well. Hence why the McGinn thread is so quiet when he is having the season of his life. I would love it if posters were to change and adopt a positive mindset. Let's see. Why don't you model the new behaviour for a while? 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rather than be constantly confrontational and negative. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
