Gus statement 11:56 this morning - 2 more players still to come

[DT Withdean]

BBC Sport - Football - Brighton's good start will helps with signings - Poyet

I hope it's a goalie, and a creative midfielder.
But height needed for the inevitable bombardment of balls to Lambert & others, to counter Albion's football played on the deck.

 

[Skaville]

What does "we're there" mean I wonder? Is it confirmation that we're interested or acknowledgement that the deal is done

 

[mcshane in the 79th]

No need for a goalkeeper.

Deal done, just waiting on final clearance from the Welsh FA

 

[Aseros]

No need for a goalkeeper.

I agree with this.

 

[Uwinsc]

No need for a goalkeeper.

I think I agree with this now. I wasn't sure before the season started but Ankergran has done well so far

 

[Box of Frogs]

I think the "we're there" relates to the Harley deal - as in, all done bar the clearance.

Would like to see another Centre back and possibly a striker for the inevitable '1 injured, 1 on international duty' scenario with our current front three.

We only need a keeper if Ankergren gets injured.

 

[Silent Bob]

a creative midfielder.

I heard we're in for Harley.

 

[Seagull Steve]

Gus has continually said that we will NOT be signing a goalkeeper. I don't like to question Gus as he has been proved correct in all of his transfer dealings, but I do think we need a better back up for Casper, as I haven't got that much faith in Brezovan. Although I am very willing to be proved wrong.

 

[Simster]

Have we got enough cover at full back?

And a like-for-like Bridcutt replacement?

 

[Wozza]

Deal was done earlier in the week.

 

[Gazwag]

Would like to see another Centre back and possibly a striker for the inevitable '1 injured, 1 on international duty' scenario with our current front three.

Now we are in the lofty heights of the Championship internationals "shouldn't" effect things, CMS clashing with the League Cup was a one off really as we have international breaks.

 

[sam86]

No need for a goalkeeper.

Did you go to the Spurs game? Lengthy injury to Casper and watch us slide down that table.

 

[Biscuit]

It's Harley and Raphael Rossi Branco.

Gus pre-season......

"We need to strengthen every single area except the goalkeeper.
"I think we have more than enough cover with the goalkeepers, we've got three great professionals that are working together very well, so that's the only place."

 

[mcshane in the 79th]

We could loan a keeper in that instance. I don't see Gus wasting wages plus a transfer fee on a player that chances are will only make a small amount of appearances. Even so, I think Brez would be good enough if he had a run of games. Gus seems to rate Poke as well so I really would be surprised if we signed anyone else between the sticks

 

[DT Withdean]

No need for a goalkeeper.

Ankergren doing fantastic job. If out, Brezovan would worry me, especially with aireals in a crowded box, and poor distribution.

 

[DT Withdean]

I heard we're in for Harley.

Wasn't about to sign for Palarse according to those 'fantastic' rumours (lies) sites?

 

[whitelion]

Is Mitch Walker still at the club?

 

[Munkfish]

Is Mitch Walker still at the club?

Yes he is, he was meant to be going to D&R but Stephonson messed it up.
