I’d say so, based on the uncanny resemblance alone.

Adam evolved into a savvy player ... one highlight getting Lambert sent off. From 1:40:



Including commentator getting JFC and Bridcutt mixed up.

Adam has two brothers, Joe, who was a rugby player, and Sami, who also played football, but not as successfully.

He was truly a pioneer of the 'dark arts' game. Loved his resurgence under Poyet, absolutely thrived under him and was a mountain for us.

The other highlight was leaning into a defensive wall, very subtly, so they all fell over.

Which team was it, at the Amex, when our entire defensive line all stepped forward to play eight or nine them offside?

He sat next to me once at Withdean, went off to the toilet mid-game and promptly missed the goal his brother scored

The little pats by Adam El Abd on the attackers’ heads were very amusing. Would the attacker react or just let it go? His resurgence under Poyet was amazing.

Found out tonight that Joe is an ex Hove player. They're pretty delighted with his appointment and are set to have his photo on the wall at the club.
