I wouldn't be so sure. Think of all the potential prize money if they qualify for Europe! No idea what the exact figure would be but we're surely talking tens of millions here, I'm not sure he'd jeopardise that. Doesn't make sense to sell for a 7-10 million profit now and miss out on 20 million...

If he can get to 7-10 goals this season, you're looking at around £40M for us to sell, is that not beyond Barca right now in their current financial state?

u23s as in the second string who were in the fa cup, also saw him for the Swiss u21s. yes it was relatively few times and I'm probably being optimistic, but I saw the second string more last season than I really had before so I was impressed, he certainly had more finesse than I was expecting...

no, not a striker, correct, and i said as much a few pages back. but for the purposes of looking at how the attacking players have developed, I'd consider him part of the equation simply because it's looking at how they all fit in the system. Maupay hasn't improved, that is correct, but...

that simply isn't true though is it? I'd say Maupay has perhaps not improved too much and Connolly's the only real one who's gone backwards (though that spurs game was maybe a false dawn), but Trossard and Zeqiri definitely have improved and Locadia and Andone were lost causes to begin with...

well this was the shot conversion rates for non-big 6 players as of 2 days ago. so neal has actually done pretty well so far. certainly no need for him to be jettisoned into outer space. but we know what we get with him, and invariably, he does miss a few sitters. that's where the problem...

nobody's asking for us to spend that amount of money, or at least I'm not. we just need some more quality up front and it's up to the club find a solution for that, which I'm sure they're trying to do

we need urgent investment up top and anyone who can't see that is deluded

do we think that maybe being dropped for two games where we'd have a good chance of getting points has maybe not done his confidence too many favours?

bring back the false 9

oh that's really ****ed me off that has

As much as we probably are missing a player with that true 'showstopper' flair, there is some rather creative revisionism here going on about two players who were just as inconsistent and possibly more so than the players we have in the squad now. The midfield do not score enough goals, and this...

well it depends what we'd pay. if we're offering fair market value then it won't be any different to any other club signing him. only 'advantage' I think Tony owning both clubs would give us is perhaps first dibs on him should they decide to sell. that being said, with all the prize money from...

0-1. we can't score and I think leeds will

made it into the argus without them really confirming it, if that means anything https://www.theargus.co.uk/sport/19722370.brighton-face-competition-manchester-city-ajax-star/

this line keeps getting repeated but we do business nearly every january, and some of our best deals under TB's stewardship have come in january (murray, knocky et al)

wouldn't disagree with that. but then I'd want to ask, obviously whilst acknowledging that nobody is perfect, what would you, Swansman, say is Graham Potter's biggest managerial flaw?

appreciate the sentiment here but we could be finishing in the champions league places every season and people would still complain about a bad performance. it's just what football fans do (and are entitled to do), and however bad we were x amount of years ago is never going to change that :shrug:

as much as potter does shoulder some of the blame for that, at the end of the day those tactics created more than enough opportunities to win the game. what's concerning is that maupay and trossard aside, absolutely none of our players can hit a cow's arse with a banjo. yes, a lot of the build...

if need be. we could get an x-factor style set up behind the goal in the north stand. bloom barber, ashworth and potter all in judges chairs with buzzers that trigger a trapdoor under the seat of whoever isn't giving it 110%. or give the stewards an electric cattle prod to keep drowsy fans on...
