[Albion] Baleba - Bissouma - Caicedo... Out of the three, who do you think will prove to be the greatest player over time?
- Thread starter Mustafa II
- Start date
Wow. Within two years he will definitely surpass Caicedo.

I was thinking the same thing.
Odd that the OP has chosen to just include those three specific players in this discussion.

Biss was the first of the three with us and set the standard. Caicedo was superb for us, but less so now Chelsea have worked their magic on him. Baleba looks so strong, has pace and vision and unlike the other two has now shown he can keep a shot down and on target. I have no doubt he will leave the other two behind and hopefully a joy to watch for more than just this season. I wonder who the algorithm has identified to succeed him eventually.
Malick Yalcouye is a good bet.

Why would he want to? Massive pay check is all he wanted
If you're right, then there's no need to move. But you're rarely right.

I agree, one could argue it is the same with Bissouma. Is there something about the Brighton midfield allows these players to be more dynamic and expressive?
So the question can only really be answered once we see where Baleba goes next, or even if he stays with us for longer.
From Brighton performances alone the answer must surely be Caicedo but with a huge asterix to point out that we need to see how Baleba progresses.
We’re surely going to be selling some very good players in the next two years or so.
Yalcouyé is indeed a good bet for Baleba’s replacement. We also have Gomez, Buonanotte, Barco, Osman, Moran, Rushworth, Cozier-Duberry, Baker-Boaitey, Sarmiento, Sima and Doyle amoungst others who will be trying to replace players such as Verbruggen, Adingra or Mitoma who might be sold for big money.
We probably needs to buy some good young centre halfs at some point though. I’m not sure we have a new Dunk or Webster to take over if either leaves or retires.
