Looking forward to seeing him become a more consistent player next season. Always like to see him play, he is class when he gets involved, taking players on and shoting more.

I always thought he would become a top player for us, but this season he seems to have gone backwards.

All he's got is pace and can sometimes beat a player.
He's not good enough and we should get rid of him

jake is the best player at this club talant wise but we need him to do it on the pitch he needs the manager to believe in him and play him in the position he likes upfront he is class i no a lot off people will not agree but i really do think the player has pure talant and just needs to be given a bit of confidence from fans and manager

I'd like to see him play more often in that place the experts call "the hole" just behind the front 2, (or 1).
We know he's never going to win much in the air, & he's not a tough tackler; but with the ball played in to feet he will beat players & produce a bit of magic that will create chances, for himself & others.
He just needs more chances instead of being given 10 mins, usually to chase a game.

What sort of talant (sic) are we talking about? And if it's not done on the pitch where is he doing it - in the park and ride or the nature reserve?
So the Division 1 defenders playing for other clubs worry about Jake rather than Forster, Cox, Murray or Elphick and Lynch at set pieces?
Does Everybody else watch a different Jake Robinson? There was one move which summed him up in 10 seconds in the second half he picked up the ball and there was 2 or maybe 3 defenders and Murray, Instead of trying to take on the defender and have a better opportunity to make a successful delivery to murray he stood for about 10 seconds and let all the swansea players come back and defend and even after that he made a rubbish cross. Hes naturally a striker, but he can't challenge for a place. He CANNOT play as a winger because he does not hug the byline, heck half the time hes not even out wide.

mmm that's one game, the final game, which meant nothing.

f*** me, NSC is supposed to be a forum for Brighton supporters. The season is over; a season where the team have done pretty well & still clowns want to pick on & slate individual players. f*** sake!
just because we had a good season doesn't mean people can't criticise squad players who simply aren't good enough.. or would you rather everyone rubs themselves over the fact we finished 7th and have a decent first 11 and then next to nothing on the bench?!

What complete and utter rubbish whenever either one gets the ball they look for each other. They have played together for years and know each others game inside out.
Cox will hit a 40 yd ball into an empty space and know that JR will chase it or be already on his way to that spot.
