Pedro will be off I think, but I doubt Rutter will be after just a season here.

Most likely candidates for a summer sale to me are (in order) Enciso, Mitoma, João Pedro, Baleba, Verbruggen, Estupiñan. Obviously we won't sell all of them.

Rutter surely hasn't made enough of a splash to force us to sell after one season a la Cucurella or Caicedo.

God, that is depressing

I think Baleba will be in demand, and by the looks of it we are planning to offload Enciso and Ferguson. But other than that there are other players at the likes of Forest, Bournemouth, Brentford, Ipswich who are having amazing seasons, who may push those you have listed as likely to be sold down the pecking order of potential suitors.

Maybe so.

I think Mitoma and Estupiñan are reaching a point where if we don't sell now, their value will only go down and they've been here a few seasons now.

Enciso clearly wants out. Maybe this is the same for Ferguson.

Baleba, Verbruggen and JP are all in a similar upwards trajectory and we've heard whispers of big club interest. But you're right there are always multiple options for buying clubs.

This is why we spent £200m over the summer, because we knew more sales would be coming.

I think teams are trying to be smarter right now. Why splash out on 27 year old Estupinan, if you can get 21 year old Kerkez from Bournemouth for a similar price? And if you don't mind buying an older player, Fulham's Antonee Robinson is the same age, but much more highly rated than Estupinan. Then there's Ipswich's Leif Davis, who could be an easy pick up if they get relegated.

we spent £200m to strengthen the squad and give it more depth, because the players were available, and they fitted the model , young - with an eye to development, likely to grow in value and from "cheaper" leagues.
And sales are always coming. THat's the model.

I completely agree and I'm relaxed about the prospect of Mitoma or Estupinan leaving - I think they're time to leave has already passed.

Antonee Robinson really is awful defensively though, he's a left back version of Alexander-Arnold but without the top tier attacking talent.

Well thats cheered me up.

Ferguson has trained and could be available?

Doctor working wonders here I have to say.

Steve78 · 2025-01-30T14:16:53+0000

Evan may well be fit but will he still be a Brighton player !

Justice · 2025-01-30T14:35:10+0000

I hope he regains his form with us there are many stupid comments on this thread doubting one of the best young strikers in world football a couple of seasons ago.
Players get injured March isn’t written off ever and given the time to recover. Evan has a few minutes on the pitch and labelled as crap.

Hiheidi · 2025-01-30T14:41:43+0000

No idea if this guy is reliable.

Wieffer, ffs we have our own Darren Anderton to replace Lallana and join Milner on the treatment table.

Maybe we need more than one table ? Is that why it’s taking soooooo long for our boys to recover…? SORT IT OUT BLOOM FFS!!

Flounce · 2025-01-30T15:04:58+0000

Gone, isn’t he? Either on loan or sold :down:

He is now being asked about Ferguson's future and says he will talk about "what makes sense for the player for the next six months." He feels the main thing for Ferguson is "he only wants to play, whether that is here or for another club."

The Fits · 2025-01-30T15:16:20+0000

Loan with a permanent would be an absolute f***ing disgrace.

macbeth · 2025-01-30T15:24:10+0000

if a permanent deal is even being contemplated then it’s quite obvious that he’s done here. what an almighty shame. quite why the logic is to make our squad weaker now and bring in tzimas in the summer when we have a chance in the cup and aren’t far from europe is beyond me. especially as there’s no way spurs and united are this bad next season. i get we’re in a transition period but it seems like an utter waste

To West Ham too! This guy is from Teamtalk so hoping it’s nonsense but if it is true the club really haven’t read the room very well.
First Chelsea, now West Ham.
If this happens and they finish above us this season that’s going to be really, really depressing.

Puts a lot of onus on Welbeck, a player with a patchy injury record.
