No chance of 'A'... Gus signed Noone & was quoted saying at the same time that he still wants Lua Lua. They are both in his plans. I am under the impression that Buckley will be mainly used as a winger, or part of a front 3 so there is only room for 2 of Lua Lua, Noone & Buckley in the starting line-up without one of them dropping in to the behind the striker role, which we may do when we are playing weaker opponents at home.

Shaping up nicely with what we've got so far (assuming we sign KLL & not taking injuries into account). The fact that Barnes, Elphick, Sparrow & Navarro don't make the team & we are yet to sign a new striker (I'm expecting 2) and a centre back, means our bench is going to be VERY strong.

Certainly an attacking line up. I'd rather see only 2 of Noone, KLL & Buckley starting (if KLL signs), and a more robust midfielder to join Bridcutt and Dicker winning the ball back. With that attacking 4 you've shown, we may score a lot....but so will the other team!

It'll be like Peterboro this season, scoring shed loads and leaking shed loads

Indeed, there are times when just doesn't quite do it justice. The excitement is far more genital than that.

Probably didn't make it clear... that was the line up I was referring to against weaker opposition at home. Realistically, against stronger opposition, I think it will be more like this with the current crop of players...

...with Noone coming on in the last 30 mins if we need a goal/change of emphasis OR a defensive minded midfielder (currently Navarro) coming on in place of one of the wingers/strikers in order to sit back slightly. Kind of highlights we still need to replace Kishishev for more defensive options.

Anyone know if Buckley is any good defensively like Bennett is? Otherwise we may be very exposed down the right when Calderon bombs forward.

 

[BensGrandad]

Given the choice I would sooner see Buckley on the right, based on his reputation, and Noone on the left as I think that he a little lsower than Lua Lua but his delivery and contribution to the game is better and then sign another proven front line striker to partner Hoskins. My brother and I argue about Noone I rate him highly he thinks Noone is best as an impact sub for the last 20 mins or so but not good enough to start.

I quote, one of our visiting Watford fans:

"oh, and don't expect him to defend..."

 

[Da Man Clay]

1.2m is alot of money for a relatively unproven player (at Championship level). Especially given his injury record and his contract expiring in less than a year. I know his pace is frightening but it doesn't take many hamstring injuries to scupper that. I wouldn't want to pay any more than about 500k up front with some add-ons based on games played ect.

You are insane BG. KLL can win any game single-handed. He's that quick, and that good. Noone is good player too, and it would be great to have options, but please stop droning on about your percieved limitations of KLL. Its boring.

What have you got against him anyway?

 

[peterward]

This is what we're buying lest we forget......

 

[DarrenFreemansPerm]

Is this all really happening! I can't quite get my head around seeing newspaper links and Internet links to 'Brighton bid £1.2m for Lua Lua' ! It just doesn't seem real ??

 

[Frutos]

I love Murray's attempt at smashing the ball into the net on the first one.

 

[BRIGHT ON Q]

FFS,why are people worrying about the money??.Is it yours?.We have the funds from Bennett sale and Naming rights and 1901 and season ticket sales and Executive boxes ect ect.....Just bloody hope it happens.

I have nothing whatsoever against KLL and am as thrilled and excited as anybody else when he comes on and roasts defenders but I am not so sure that some of the older Championships defenders will allow him to go past them more than once and will hack him to death similar to Hartlepool, and thus result in him spending quite a time on the treatment table. I think that at times he is too quick for his own good if that is possible I believe that Gus will improve his delivery and general all round play.

 

[Cheeky Monkey]

There are a lot of people on here 'assuming' that this is a done deal!

exactly right and he won't be the last piece of the jigsaw either

 

[chucky1973]

I am due at a meeting in 20 minutes, but I can get my hard on to go down when we speak about all these wingers, pace and money....KKL, Buckley, Noone....Stop it people stop it right now.

Would love to see Lua Lua here.

Not convinced worth over a million with his injury history. Lets not forget his hamstrings needed constant nursing when here.

If we have money to burn then hell lets do

Element of risk involved here though
