Adingra was pretty darn good last season, playing predominantly on the right you'll remember? He's already played in the right for 45 minutes and scored this season.
I don't think he deserved to lose his place at all, and although i hate criticising young players, Minteh was clearly poor on...
Ten Hag's game management was atrocious. He set them up well, their pressing made it really hard for us, and Mount was key to that. So he takes him off at half-time, baffling. We come ot on top but then they score and they were definitely in charge through the disallowed goal, and then he takes...
Used to in the early 90's but then I lived in Manchester during the treble season and it was electric, those big European cup nights were something else, especially the QF and SF games against Inter and Juve, and that will live long with me. However the current incarnation are pathetic in...
Five of the six managers Bloom has appointed were unproven in England at the level they were appointed. One failed, and that led to the 'safe' appointment of Hughton to keep us up. Fab could fail, and that may lead to a similar 'safe' appointment, although I think it would be really hard to...
He simply wasn't going to play much when Pervis is fit. With Ferdi as presumed backup on the left this makes sense for everyone. He is still very young.
So for context, this comment was NOT specifically about Barco. The question was 'are there going to be more outgoings, we know Sima is off to Brest, and rumours about Barco leaving, are there others who will leave?'. Fab then answered that they are always transparent with players, they...
I don't know if Rutter is necessarily the answer, but they are likely to have a midfield three of Casemiro, Mainoo and Bruno and that's going to be hard work for Wieffer and Milner to deal with.
Our squad rebuild seems in part to be moving out every player who speaks Spanish. There was a time when we our squad was absolutely stuffed full of them, but then Cucurella went on strike, Bruno buggered off with Potter, Caicedo went on strike, Mac Allister refused to sign a new contract without...
I guess this makes sense. Pre-RDZ we let nearly all our young signings develop in other leagues and when they arrived at Brighton they pretty much hit the ground running. Mitoma, Adingra, White, Caicedo, MacAlister, van Hecke, Sanchez. Yes in some cases this was for visa reasons but it was also...
Maybe he's struggling to settle in England and a loan to Spain will do him good? He's very young and not so many Spanish-speakers around the squad these days
Now I've discovered he's primarily a LB I'm starting to wonder a bit about the money being spent when Estupinan and Barco are here? RB always felt like a bigger need, although I guess Veltman/Lamptey/Hinsh is bigger numbers even if we don't have a world beater there.
