He wasn't great to be honest, only really recall one decent shot and that end of half foul in 72 mins .
Didn't see him take anyone on really, or play great passed

Doubt he's very match fit or sharp
We really won't see the best of him until he's had a Poch preseason under his belt. At least he won't be involved at the WC, gives him a chance to focus on getting up to speed.

Did Poch actually want Moura?

Rarely gives him any game time and even when he does, pulls him at the first opportunity. He can't even get 90 minutes against Rochdale.

I think that is reasonable what Poch did and its in keroing with how he has subbed players
And who knows he may want to use him against United

I would give him some leeway as this was his first start in the PL and there were far worse players on the pitch today.

I thought he did some encouraging things but the understanding with other players wasn't there tonight. Surely that will improve with time.

Lucas answered the question tonight that Ron has been asking since last week, should he have played against Stoke, no!

Goodnight.

Play him off the right he fine, move him left and his ineffective

Its difficult to say after one game.
Its also about what Poch adked for him.
Usually a player who is more on the right and puts him on the left coukd be that he wants him to attack the goal with his right
But we dont know that

Just watched the first half..Brightons defence were very good.
Moura,Eriksen,Son an co have done fome good things and some mediocre.
Davies really terrible todsy.
Its not good enough generally for a team fighting at the top
