So if it's an Italian and knowing how we like to track players for years, Babacar? Dont think it worked out for him at Sassuola and was loaned out last year, stats suggest that didn't work out either, hope not tbh.

Seen many people say someone similar to Lamptey at LWB would be ideal. I noticed this comment in the Guardan predictions article from a Chelsea fan when asked if they had anyone similar to Lamptey for the other side. Ian Maatsen. Dutch youth international, on the small side, flying pace, plays...

Nuñez, Origi, Batshuayi, Watkins or Edouard, we're certainly clearing funds for someone this summer.

Totally agree, but this is Brighton we are talking about, we struggle to get one most seasons. It wouldn't surprise me if we signed this player and said we now have plenty of cover up front with Maupay, Connolly, Jahanbaksh, Gykores and Andone to come back when fit, which technically is true...

Another underwhelmed unless we are signing two strikers, happy to be proved wrong, but didn't see anything in his highlights to make me think, wow, this boy is a talent.

Perhaps Duffy didn't want a permanent deal, a seasons loan, playing for his boyhood club and he can always say he's played for them. Still be young enough and good enough for the Premier League in a years time i would have thought. He will know he's better than that standard, if it had been any...

Good to know one of them has that in their locker :thumbsup: Even if my faint hopes for an Izquierdo comeback have just been extinguished:lolol: Guessing it was Weir?

Watching him yesterday, i thought he was a busy little bugger and was closing our defenders down very well. But, we have two strikers already with similar attributes and i would say both are better. He's good, but not what we need.

Only going by that youtube video, he looks very fast and very tricky but his final ball/finishing wasn't great. The stats posted earlier suggest otherwise though. Looked like he can play on either wing which would be useful with Trossard able to do likewise. Cant see us spending big money on...

I wonder if there are rules in place to stop a similar scenario as the one years ago involving Wayne Clark when he moved from Birmingham to Everton. Birmingham had to pay 50% of any fee to Clarks previous club Wolves so was transferred on a free. At the same time Everton paid 300,000 pounds for...

:thumbsup: I think we'd all prefer someone proven at this level, which would rule out both Edouard and Nuñez tbh and they are out there. I like us taking a punt on a youngster, but not at 25-40m which are the figures being mentioned for these two. Christ we could sign Messi on a free and pay his...

Would be interesting to know because someone mentioned that his posts on (i think) instagram were liked by plenty of our squad, so it would seem he is not as unpopular as Paul Hayward suggests. Just find it a bit sad that so many of our fans were so willing to ostracize one of our players on...

I'm not on twatter, so can't check, but is it safe to assume that this had loads of likes from the rest of the squad?

Kind of proves the point about the standard of the SPL, if he signs for Celtic he will probably do very well, this is the standard that Odsonne Edouard needs to step up from, it is a HUGE step up, doesn't mean he cant, but i'd let someone else take that chance for £30m to be honest. As has been...

That's just greedy :lolol: I wouldn't say no to that either but its not my money.

In case he breaks down again?, may not be the only reason but if it was just our normal U23's why black it out at all?

As i said on the report from the U23's game against Fulham, our number 11 sounded very familiar, might partly explain the media blackout too.

No that is fair, until he plays at a higher level he can't prove himself either, but by that reasoning Maupay is ahead of him and i actually think Connolly will be outstanding, i understand we need something different to those two but i wouldn't pay over £30m for something different, that might...

Ok, i'm a Scot, living in Spain, i'm not going to say i have watched loads of the Spanish 2nd tier, i haven't, but i have watched a lot of the SPL. I tend to agree with everything Swansman said above the standard is dire, thats not to say there aren't any good players up there, there are...

Thought it was funny how one poster said "meanwhile Brighton are chasing some striker from Spain for 16m tha iv'e never heard of", open goal for one of you tweeters, a year ago, none of them had ever heard of Ben White either! :lolol:
