Hopefully De Rossi's experience will help him to improve which could then get us even more money once we sell him.

[Albion] Alexis Mac Allister - *** New Contract Until 2025 ***

I’m not giving up on a work permit for him. Argentina are in a massive state of flux at the moment and are certainly not as strong as they used to be so more players from the Argentinian league are being called up which gives him a much better chance of also being called up.
If not, we sell him for a big profit. This was a very clever bit of business by the club either way as he is clearly a real talent.

On his last warning
If do end up selling him, hopefully we'll get some of the money back we squandered on signing AJ and Locadia

Living the dream
If you want a mentor next to you in midfield as a kid learning the trade, DiRossi has to be up there as one of the all time best.
Not 'just'. No need for the pejorative. I'm 'just' a bloke. Woe is me
And the opposite, 'our players are not commodiies and are too poorly regarded for anyone to buy' would hardly be a thing to boast about.

You're not liking it, then?
It's OK. We are all commodities and valued members of the team. Or not. But what else can we be?
I don't like it when managers with a thin squad say things like 'we need some bodies in' though. Just bodies? What about some useful commodities? And what about treating them like valued members of the team so they are encouraged to play their part? I think Maureen forgot this important lesson towards the end of hus managerial career. I wonder if the two might be related?
Boca Juniors second leg 0-0 (3-0 on aggregate) through to the semi final. Mac Allister played the full match.

Really quite something that we have a player contracted to us in the last four of the most important tournament in South America. Possible repeat of Boca vs River Plate incoming in the semis - where will they play it this time? Madrid? Milan? Timbuktu?

Can someone add a comment to complicate it even further “a player who is unlikely to ever play a game for Brighton”

That's the spirit.
I know, but as he plays for his dream team already I fear we will have to drag him kicking and screaming to come and play for us
I think that I am just being a realist and TB will make a hefty profit when he sells him to Boca.

Boca don't have that sort of money. A decent sized European club is more likely.
