[Albion] Carlos Baleba

[brighton_tom]

Top class in the minutes he got

 

[severnside gull]

Looked exceptional when he came on today

 

[Hugo Rune]

I just love his whistling. You can hear it coming..



I was laughing so much when I watched this, my eyes started watering!

 

[hampshirebrightonboy]

I can’t understand how he gets the ball off the opposing players so many times when he has so much ground to make up. Not sure I’ve ever seen a player as good as he is at that.

 

[GrossTurn]

He can both be exceptional plus change games AND not be ready for 90 mins every week. That said I think he should be playing a lot more than 15 mins in 2 matches. Am sure his gametime will creep up and all for the good. Whilst keeping Milner or similar rested and fit.

First handful of games under a new coach and system are the time for experienced heads who pick up the new system quickly. But that shouldn't be as important over time.

All he can do is play that well when on the pitch and work hard in training and at some point you’ll put the manager in a position where he can’t not put you in from the start. His time will come.

 

[Big Vern]

Love the guy, could be exceptional

 

[El Turi]

Game changer today. Has to start.

 

[jcdenton08]

There is clearly a great prospect in there. Loved that game last season he played as a libero if anyone remembers that. One to watch.

Caicedo used to steal the ball when it looked impossible

 

[Dave the OAP]

Absolutely outstanding

 

[scwiffy]

Game was screaming out for Baleba from the start, we have to start either him or Weiffer in the centre of midfield every game. Milner and Gilmour are both great players but not together

 

[thedonkeycentrehalf]

Just before the final whistle he shifted one of the United players away from the ball in a manner befitting an NFL Linebacker. How the ref didn’t give a free kick is a mystery

Saw that think it was Fernandez

I still think Bissouma was the king at that. He would race back a couple of yards behind the oppo with the ball and miraculously steal it.

Mark Lawrenson perhaps?

 

[Lady Whistledown]

I reckon Carlos and Georgi Rutter are going to get on like a house on fire.

Both always smiling, both love playing up for the camera, both just seem like smashing guys, and are native French speakers. I sense a BROMANCE incoming, and I very much look forward to the club videos.

 

[portslade seagull]

He was immense when he came on, definitely changed the game in our favour

 

[dazzer6666]

Saw that think it was Fernandez

Subbed off on 79 minutes so possibly not

 

[Paulie Gualtieri]

Subbed off on 79 minutes so possibly not

That’s a shame

 

[Cordwainer]

I love CB with all of my heart. He is an absolute pleasure.

Think Rutter may end up being the same.

Rays of sunshine.
