I hear that some of the Old School are regretful that 41 year old South African defender, Hitler Makofane, is now retired.

I've been saying this for week but you put it much more eloquently!!!
The club would be mad to loan Evan to another EPL club.

Brighton ‘close’ to signing Diouf according to agent
”information confirmed by the player's agent to Africafoot. According to the details revealed, Brighton is ready to pay 16 million euros, with 2 million euros in bonuses, to secure the services of the young winger. The proposed contract would be over 5 years, with a net annual salary of 4 million euros.
El Hadji Malick Diouf file à Brighton – les détails du deal révélés
Alors que le mercato hivernal touche à sa fin, El Hadji Malick Diouf est sur le point de rejoindre Brightonafricafoot.com
Apparently ‘£16m‘ is not enough coming from Brighton but would be if Liverpool or Chelsea come knocking according to the Czech Club’s Chairman.
Club‘s Chairman suggested that price should be €20m+, before again making it clear he’d be more understanding if what he deems to be a huge club arrived for the defender:
“If Liverpool and Chelsea, who were also interested in him, had come with an offer of around €17-18m, I would have hesitated to approach it differently from the perspective of promoting the club or the player’s interest.’
If true, perhaps we should tell Slavia to piss off?

Earlier on Moday, we covered claims from AfricaFoot regarding Brighton & Hove Albion interest in Slavia Praha’s El Hadji Malick Diouf. They said they’d spoken to the player’s agent who had relayed that interest, and there was talk of a €16m offer from Brighton, with a potential further €2m in...

Hopefully he’ll fall into line soon.

He’s still regarded as a major talent by us (if he wasn’t, he probably would have been loaned out by now) - the fact we are apparently looking outside the EPL for a loan club suggests that too.
‘Theoretically’ (‘theoretically’ because there’s been a dearth of goals recently) we have players ahead of him in the pecking order ( Pedro and Welbeck) and FH mentioned several months back that Evan needs to adapt to the ‘system’ (whatever that is!?). He is still coming back from long term ill health/injury - I suspect it is the medical team/physios that are having just as much input into how much football he plays as FH.
GET suggesting several Bundesliga could be interested, including St Pauli which I mentioned earlier who are fighting to stay up in the 1 Bundesliga but have struggled with their attacking play this season (I suspect partly due to the loss of Marcel Hartel at the end of last season)
Bundesliga sides interested in taking Brighton's Evan Ferguson on loan - Get German Football News
Fabrizio Romano and originally the Daily Telegraph that there is interest from the Bundesliga in Brighton's Evan Ferguson.www.getfootballnewsgermany.com
Eintracht Frankfurt have just sold a striker to Man City. Nürnburg might fancy a loan of Evan as a sweetener if we really are after Tzimas.
I think Eintracht Frankfurt have a decent striker in Hugo Ekitiké, which is presumably why they were happy to let Marmoush go.

Haven’t seen anything along those lines myself but perhaps he’s confused Enciso’s comments with his own refusal to say anything nice about Brighton while Fabian is manager

Poster on a Derby forum earlier this afternoon suggested confidently Cashin was a done deal for around £9m.

It all feels a bit messy to me, we could only have 16 games left this season (hope not but could be) then we have a situation in the summer where all these players plus Osman and Sarmiento come back. Unless we are planning major sales it hard to see how the situation improves for any of them by then. Milner may retire but beyond that I don’t see much natural turnover in the positions they play.

Seems so - article I posted this afternoon were saying after playing at the weekend, fans noted Cashin had stayed behind a lot longer waving ‘goodbye’ and he also wasn’t wearing the captain’s armband. That has fuelled speculation amongst fans that the Rams have accepted a bid from us.
Derby County & Brighton transfer now feels inevitable before February 3 deadline
Cashin is being pursued by Brighton and, if Saturday is anything to go by, the deal seems almost inevitable.

If the choice is keep Ferguson and try to gradually get him back up to speed here, or loan him out and replace with a 19 year old Tzimas who will also need time to gradually get up to speed then I think you're right.
It does?

Gross was the lynchpin for a lot of players, needed a like for like replacement.
That wasn't going to happen, so have to change system.
There seems to be a bit of unrest in the camp as well.
