[Albion] Ansu Fati **Signed On Loan 01/09**

[Super Steve Earle]

This is just for a loan, right?

Yes, but for the whole of the rest of the season across four competitions. Hopefully still another 50 odd matches to play especially at 20 odd minutes per match. He can play the lot!

It’s not Tony’s helicopter. He does sometimes hire one , usually to get to the ground quickly for a game if he’s at the races .

My mistake. I assumed it was. I was chatting to someone who was with him when he won cheltenham and the bloke said he was getting straight in his chopper and heading back for the palace game.

TB won Cheltenham? Can he get GCHQ to track his car then?

 

[Peteinblack]

I assume he's now travelling by car - you'll never walk a loan

 

[HAILSHAM SEAGULL]

If its like Gatwick he will be in baggage reclaim for 40 minutes

 

[Bakero]

He hasn’t played more than once for 90 minutes, the whole of last season.
Mostly it is 15-20 minutes.

4 knee operations has taken its toll, people expecting him to play 90 minutes anytime soon are mad.

Who pissed in your cornflakes?

 

[Green Cross Code Man]

Absolutely. And we're talking about Barcelona's number ten here, not someone we're eventually going to lose to Reading.

Reading lol! To think Steve Coppell got himself in all kinds of bother with their fans when he was manager there and had the temerity to point out that Brighton (even Withdean Brighton) were a bigger club.

anyone know what the traffic on the m25 is like??

Anyone in position at the training ground?

For Barca and Fati, think about it like Sarmiento and WBA.

The lad burst onto the scene, but then had a succession of injuries which severely limited his ability to get the game time to get his match fitness up.

We'll be able to use him more than Barca will. That's why he's coming here, to get minutes under his belt. I don't doubt he'll be a sub at the start, but as long as there are no further set backs, we'll build up his minutes over the course of the Autumn

Plus if he is that good, the other youngsters will hopefully learn loads from him

 

[macbeth]

imagine if this had happened 2 years ago and we had to watch potter stick him at LWB

He will be playing 90 minutes sooner than you think.

That's why he's here, from both ours and Barcelona's perspectives.

It won't take long to have him match fit. He is here to regain fitness and confidence so he can play at the very highest level again.

If he shows half the quality he did before his injury then 15 minutes from him may be all we need to turn a game our way. Definitely not expecting 'peak Messi' from him though

 

[Badger]

Quick stop in Hickstead Burger King to seal the deal?

Barely anyone at their games now

Yet still you do it...
