Well all the Arsenal journos and ITK experts had told us a deal had been agreed with Ben, he’s happy with personal terms and the deal would be completed after the Euros.
So now we find out if all this was BS and who’s being honest and making shite up.

As I said before vaga, why do it to yourself, just keep an eye on the official site for any outgoing transfers, saves hours of time wasted fretting over utter fiction, feeding these made up stories by clicking on them.

It wasn’t a post to be taken literally TB!

Fear not one and all, Benjamin White will still be an Albion player when the window slams shut. I can feel it in my water.

I really hope not!
I feel now is the time to cash in. We may not have as much 'equity' in him next season but we may have more. I'd prefer the cash now and reinvest especially as we have a more than adequate replacement waining in Veltman.
I don't look at the team sheet and hope that White's name is there. I do when it comes to Dunk.

Have to disagree with this. His stocks only going up imo.

Fair comment. They say that a team is as good as it’s spine. We have a goalie, centre back and defensive midfielder - just need a matching attacking midfielder and striker and we’ll be cushty.

can easily see him having an injury ravaged season next season.

He could. Equally we could be talking 65m + this time next year. He's an undoubted talent and we should make the big boys pay through the nose. The Albion hold all the cards on this one.
Might as well not sign that new striker then, he could get injured.

Dunk is more crucial to the Albion l grant you, but to be fair very few of us have had the chance to see Ben White in the flesh yet due to the Pandemic, and l would like to set eyes on him for real come August!

Isn't that essentialy how we got Veltman so cheap - a release clause of €1M for him to move to a PL club?

Yes - but I think the point is we know Bloom well enough to assume it isn't something he would add - or it would be very high if he did. More likely a Gentleman's Agreement with the player if deal suitable for all parties arrives.
From memory that was triggered at a certain point in his contract, which is why we'd been tracking him for a while. I'm absolutely sure though that White won't have a release clause of 1 million to go to another EPL team.
He might have something like "Brighton must accept an offer of greater than £60 million from Real Madrid, Man United or Liverpool" that combines a silly amount with a "dream club" but we don't know that and I'm pretty sure the speculators, including the poster I replied to, don't know that.
Yes we do.
They're iron clad.

Mr Bloom and Mr Barber are far to sharp to allow themselves to be screwed over by an agent of a 'young' pro.
