We made the game hard by starting with 10 men.
Barkley does not deserve to be starting. With him in the side right now, we instantly lose the midfield battle. Every game he has played in with Luiz and McGinn we have lost the midfield.
As soon as he is removed, our midfield improves.
That's not an emotional reaction its a fact.
At no point have I said we should be beating Brighton, you've made that up yourself.
All I am saying is, players not carrying their weight, like Barkley, deserve to be dropped, and players who work hard and play well, Nakamba, should not.
