Maybe we are benching him until the window closes. Smart
I imagine there is probably some substance in this.

Nah surely they wouldn’t think like that. RDZ wouldn’t take any guidance like that. That’s madness imo.

Has to start ahead of Welbeck, surely? Welbeck just doesn’t look like scoring.

I hope there’s a Palace fan out there called Fergus, whose son supports the Albion…
Even Fergus’s son supports Brighton, that’s how brilliant they are…

Nobody seems to have asked Ferguson himself what he thinks. He opted for us rather than Liverpool when he first signed as he could see better development opportunities. I can't see him changing that philosophy just yet while he is still learning, so I expect him to be with us for 2 or 3 more seasons at least, regardless of what we are offered for him.

You could be right. He’s still got his Billy’s Boots in the garage.

This is the point -
When Rodrygo went for a world record for a 18 year-old he already has 63 games for Santos - Ferguson played three games for Bohs and has played 22 for Brighton.
When Mbappe joined PSG he had played 41 games for Monaco and (technically) another 27 games for PSG (he joined on loan before the permanent transfer.
It is a sign of the reputation this kid is building for himself that numbers north of £100m are being thrown around.
I think @ConfusedGloryHunter is right when he says the question is 'do the club have to sell him?' - and at the moment the answer is no.

A further addition to this -
have a look at the 2min highlights from QPR and Ipswich yesterday and you will see why I think Armstrong is going to be a good player.
He was instrumental in 2 of our goals yesterday, no ?

This idea has crossed my mind recently. We don't want Evan scoring too many goals as that will alert the big clubs, just a few to keep his eye in until the window closes.Maybe we are benching him until the window closes. Smart

The 'big' clubs are well aware of Evan already, just as they are with all our players. RDZ is just managing the minutes of an 18 year old lad who's on the brink of becoming a top top striker. We made a right hash of the expectations we lumped on Connolly's shoulders, I doubt we'll do the same with Ferguson.

Welbeck has missed some chances but also played well for me. Good link up play. It’s a great dilemma.
And there’s no chance Fergusson is leaving so can we save the months of worrying about him and Mitoma for next Summer or at the very least January please

I did tell you all he was probably a 100 mill striker
What a f***ing beast
100 million? Not a chance we'd sell him for that.

If he carries on the way he is . £150m will be needed to buy him
