[Albion] Brajan Gruda **SINGED 14 Aug 2024**

[peterward]

He will be fine, yesterday was clearly a mixture of nerves and adrenaline. Hopefully we can give him 30 minutes in next home game and let him settle in.

Get him involved in carabao v Liverpool too.

Despite looking absolutely AWFUL, I though he actually looks quite good, if that makes sense?

I think he'll be a great winger, he's got bags of pace and isn't afraid to take on a man. It could be a season-long loan for him next year though, coming back into the squad at 22.

 

[B-right-on]

Great to see him on the pitch. As others have said, not the greatest of debuts and he obviously realised it.

He looked really quick and not shy to get stuck in.

What a depth of squad we've got.

I remember how bad Mwepu looked on his debut when he got 20 mins against Watford when we were cruising at 2-0, so I'm certainly not reading anything into Gruda's cameo in a much tighter match situation.

Weirdly, it does. I thought the same. Was trying too hard and things went very wrong. But his positioning and attitude were good. I am pretty sure he'll be great, in time. I'd rather have someone young and talented, trying too hard than, well.. Locadia.

We won’t loan out an£25m player.

It took Baleba and Biss a season to start to show their best, Macallister half a season.

Gruda has been here 5 minutes and injured.

Trust the algorithm. He'll be great in time.

 

[Blue3]

Great just to see on the pitch it must be awful coming to a new club and being Injured have to recover away from the first team then when getting back to full health trying to break into the team, after the game I noticed a number of the Brighton player made a point of going over to congratulate him upon his little cameo.
He clearly isn’t up to speed yet nor has he had a chance to familiarise himself with all the team or tactics which let’s be honest none of us have worked out what the game plan is other than score more than we let in

SHITEHOUSE.

Get rid - and he can take Fab with him

 

[Coldwaltham Seagull]

My family and I came away from the game really excited by Gruda so shows how much it can be a game of opinions. Thought he looked positive, a couple of good touches and also showed he has a decent bit of pace
