Because voice-verified

I mean we we talked about this on the the preview podcast, myself and Lewis, we talked about what we were gonna expect from Brighton and we talked about how they were gonna press high, they were gonna press hard. voice-verified

And there's a risk reward element, right? voice-verified

Where if you can play through the press, all of a sudden you've got big areas of the pitch in which you can uh make strides. voice-verified

That's the balance that you have to uh take into account when it comes to a team like Brighton who are gonna press. voice-verified

Yeah. voice-verified

So it it can't have been something that was unexpected from uh the point of view of Mikel Arteta and his coaching staff as they prepared this game. voice-verified

They they if we knew, they knew they were gonna press high. voice-verified

Then it became a question of right, if you can't do it, what is your alternative here? voice-verified

Why do you keep trying to do it? voice-verified

Is it is it trying to stick with those basic fundamentals, the principles of play that Mikel Arteta talks about? voice-verified

We want to play out from the back, and we will try and do it. voice-verified

If it doesn't work we'll trust ourselves to to keep doing it. voice-verified

But is there an argument to be made that voice-verified

You need to mix it up a little more. voice-verified

That when it becomes obvious that you're struggling to play through the press, do you not have to try and add a little variety to your play, if that makes sense, to go long a little bit longer? voice-verified

I mean, I think what was what was voice-verified

I suppose striking to me about our performance was that even when we did try and go long, which maybe wasn't long enough, we were not winning second balls either. voice-verified

That we didn't pass it well enough, but nor did we compete well enough when we did uh, you know, try go long, try go to Havertz, uh the the central defenders would head it forward, but in those midfield battles in the area where you can try and pick up the second ball, we voice-verified

lost out pretty much every time to Brighton. voice-verified
