Results are determined by key moments in both boxes.
From what I've seen of Brighton they don't have a cutting edge despite playing some decent passing football.
We look more threatening this season and are creating more opportunities through committing more players forward leading to more key moments in the opposing penalty areas.
Last season we weren't doing that which is why some were critical of Roy.
We were amongst the lowest in goals scored, chances created and efforts on goal.
I don't think that will be repeated this season.

Brighton removed Hughton from his duties as their ambition was greater than just survival and Hughton by his own admission isn't the most expansive of managers.Hughton got Brighton promoted,they finished 15th in their first season in the PL and 17th the season before last which was Hughton's last season at the club.

Appointed Potter to play a more expansive game and last season they finished 15th.

Noted and what a delight if they get relegated this season.Has Potter not got an extra long contract with the weed??

Happy to take a draw against Spurs they are flying.

They are clinical only, I've watched them many times and teams have lots of opportunities and just fail to make the most of them, Arsenal were absolutely awful with marking them in that last game and allowed their two most dangerous players much to much space, we will have our work cut out to prevent them but having said that they'll have the same problem with Zaha and Eze, it'll be down to defences and we have struggled so I fear we will lose this game because of that.

My understanding is that Potter was appointed on a contract until June 2023 but a few months after joining he was given a 2 year extension.

Numerous internet articles indicate that Potters current contract as Weed manager runs until the end of May 2025.

Just one of the sources...

Over the last 11 months, Brighton and Sheffield United are the only teams that have picked up less points than us.

Both seem to be declining. Brighton's main issue seems to be the number of draws they get.

Leeds are averaging a better points per game record than us.

If the trend continues we are likely to finish 16th.

Of course, West Brom or Fulham may get their act together and start picking up points soon. Similarly, Sheffield Utd or Brighton may have a change of Manager or Major investment in January.

Burnley are also dropping like a bomb so likely to be in the mix unless they start spending.

Tricky times lay ahead.

My 'Pied a terre' is on the south coast so I do hear snippets of information apropos Brighton, accordingly I did NOT avail of software to ascertain Potter's contractual situation.

I suggest that this timespan is only relevant if the poor form of last season is continuing into this one. That seems to be the case with Brighton and since the first lockdown, Sheffield Utd. It doesn't apply to us, however, given our points tally this season and the fact we were safe by the beginning of the first lockdown last season.

Currently, we are NOT showing relegation form, but with the tough run of games to complete the first half of the season, we could slip down the table, but are unlikely to be in the bottom three even if we lose all eight of those games. I expect us to pick up enough points to keep us well ahead of the relegation battle (currently, we're 10 points clear and 9 clear of the team in 17th.)

Totally agree. Considering the quality of the team, the stability of the club and the manager, and the fact that we already have nearly half the points needed to stay up after only 11 matches, I don't think we will ever be near the relegation zone.
