Well, I'm pretty excited by this. A very Brighton signing and exactly the sort of backup OR complement to Maupay that we need. Takes the risk out of Welbz being out of contract at the end of the season and will probably allow us to properly consider the future of Connolly and the lad we loaned to Stoke.
I would have preferred him not to have been loaned back as we could use that strength up top right now. We are a Maupay red card and Welbeck injury from having to play a false nine with Trossard again. But, let's face it, we're not going down and USG could win the league.
Let's have no more criticism of the methods of Watford, Red Bull X or Friends Of Man City on here though. We've clearly joined them.
I’d put money on Tolaj being in the PL squad next season
Ferguson's in it now and he's only 17. The Oracle has spoken. "He's the One"
Looks a good signing. If we’d signed someone from the Championship with 18 goals in half a season, we’d be excited, and the standard seems similar.

Indeed - apparently we should have spent £30M on Ivan Toney who has 3 goals from open play this season (I think ?)
Looks like competition for Maupay. But no way a replacement for ex Man U, Arse and England Welbeck.
We need his signature pronto imho. Give him 2 years.
He's been very good since coming back from injury but he has had a LOT of injury and Maupay is still normally preferred by Potter. I'd try and give Welbeck another year because he's earned it overall but let's not expect to get that full year out of him. It's almost always true that injury prone players stay injury prone. It's the way their bodies are made.
Welbeck, by all accounts is a very good pro who really tries to look after himself but it's quite possible that his strings are tuned so tight they're easier to snap.

seems to of scored goals all his career ( all be it one season in L3 Germany)
Yes its noddy leagues but interesting if can step up.
Would be more exciting if had his stats and was 21.
He's had 1 season in a slightly lesser noddy league which at age 25 is a bit strange but May offer something
Well he's been injured and out for a couple of brief spells but he's still made 33 PL appearances out of the 54 games he's been here for. And 9 goals.
Thats probably more than anyone expected.
You could say the same I suppose of a bloke called Glenn Murray, who only scored goals in noddy leagues until he made his Premier League debut aged 29/30... he wasn't too bad. 25 is no age really for a striker....still developing. You don't get many Rooneys.
