Interesting selection
Change of formation with Mendy in

That’s a poor line up I have to say. Looks like he’s pushing Maddison on the left with absolutely no creativity in the middle whatsoever. Does he think this is a cup game or something?

I expected one or two changes but not Papy Mendy and Iheanacho.......

Very strange one including amends it has to be said. I get the Gray inclusion even if I don’t agree with it.

So far, all Brighton (not To be confused with Albrighton) and we look ragged.

Let’s hope things settle!!!!

* including Mendy

You just get the feeling that Rodgers, while being an immense man manager, isn’t really the most tactically astute. It’s a line up you struggle to understand. Papy Mendy?!!!

Awful Puel football at the moment. Brighton sit deep and we have no creativity in the middle with Maddison pointlessly pushed out of position.

Oh and we’ve given away a penalty

Awful tactical set up - if we don’t get 3 points today (which we won’t) then Rodgers has practically chucked CL football out the window. Embarrassing from the manager

Great penalty save

Get in Kasper. Get out of jail free card used.

NOW MUST DO BETTER.

Oh my days thanks Kasper!

Too many players looking second rate and lacking effort, yes it's hot but that was a real let off.

Cos we’ve gone with 2 upfront

Awful awful awful tactics

5 subs allowed, I’d make 2 now to stop this 4-4-2 comedy-fest!

They're having a great time against Chilwell, is he a cardboard cut out?

Is Nev Listening I wonder?

"Great save by one of the best Keepers in the Premier League"

To be fair the 3 he dropped didn't have a good game against Watford but unless it's fitness it's harsh to drop any of them after one game with the replacements he's chosen.

Mendy over Praet? Maddison on the wing when we have Perez? 2 upfront?

Rotation is nothing to do with it - it’s bad decision making yet again

Agree BS. This is currently looking like bad tactics, executed badly. Brighton look by far the better team.

Hope we somehow change it, or luck our way through this and learn.
