Hopefully, we don’t let this guy go to waste, needs a chance in cup games or we should send him out on loan for first team football.

 

[Don Tmatter]

Does he need another loan spell or more involvement with the first team squad?

 

[albionfan37]

I’d be surprised if he didn’t go back to Luton for a season long loan

 

[Invicta]

Does he need another loan spell or more involvement with the first team squad?

Get him in the 1st team squad

 

[GT49er]

First team* in five years; probably on the bench though.







* Probably not ours. Shame.

 

[Johnny RoastBeef]

Well done, and only 19.

 

[Seasidesage]

Time will tell but he looks a proper player to me

 

[Harry Wilson's tackle]

Top work [MENTION=1276]AZ Gull[/MENTION] (as always). The rest of us who post about the actual Brighton and Hove Albion (as opposed to T Rex, Trex, Trill and Brexit) are dilletantes. Fact.

 

[Surf's Up]

Depends entirely on the new manager's approach to youth development.

Depends entirely on the new manager's approach to youth development.

You think Tony Bloom is spending 4-5 million per year on the academy, has recruited Dan Ashworth as Technical Director (whose main reputation is for enabling the development of young players), and has fired Chris Hughton (who didn't give a single academy youngster - other than Christian Walton - a league start in his 4 & 1/2 years as manager).....only to appoint a manager who ISN'T committed to youth development?

Blimey.

 

[Jim Van Winkle]

Get him in the first team squad - can’t do any worse than Andone or Locadia.

 

[One Teddy Maybank]

Great news - same type of player as Andone as far as I can see.

 

[darkwolf666]

Just play him, if at 19 you’re old enough to die for your country I’m sure he’s not too young to play for the first team.

I’m pretty sure the goals are the same size in the Premier League!

 

[Justice]

Get him in the first team squad - can’t do any worse than Andone or Locadia.

We don’t know that though Locadia has never played as a striker for us.

 

[Dave the OAP]

Fantastic...get him out on loan to some non descript Belgium side.

 

[Exile]

We don’t know that though Locadia has never played as a striker for us.

Well that’s not true.

 

[southstandandy]

Got to be the replacement for Locadia

 

[Arthur]

Whilst that is wonderful and well done Aaron is there any danger this lad will get anywhere near the first team (and I'm not talking about sitting on the bench in a cup game)?

 

[jamie (not that one)]

Would like to see him around the 1st team and at least making the bench sometimes.
