I get that. Not sure his English language skills will improve that much at USG, still, he is a bit of a unit so hopefully the ‘toughening up’ aspect needed for EPL success won’t be such a challenge (as it seemed to be for Karbo).

You think they speak Polish in USG..?

Another highly rated youngster. Great work from the club and just hope Dan Ashworth sticks around for some of these prospects to realise their potential in the PL.

Excellent signing. I understand people saying USG might not want to disrupt their squad but if he’s a big upgrade then why not? Would we disrupt ours if we got loaned Kevin De Bruyne?

Are you saying there's a chance I can booooo KdB?



Don't tease me.

Haha I thought of Dominik Szoboszlai as a name but assumed most wouldn’t understand the point.

Either way anyone who wants to boo Kacper will get their chance soon and that’s very exciting

Does this mean he is coming to us?

I'm just making a speculative joke, unfortunately. Wouldn't rule it out in the summer though; his goal and assist stats are almost certainly going to end up better than Trossard's were in the season before he came to us from the same league.

Definitely. USG will be well aware of the player's attributes - the 2 clubs respective scouting networks probably share all their info and data - and will have almost certainly bought in to the purpose of this loan before it was agreed. Seeing as the player had apparently added USG to his Insta 3-4 weeks ago, this seems to have been agreed for a while.

Edit: I've just seen that article Bozza posted which confimed that USG use BHA's scouting data.

There used be disappointment on NSC when a new signing was immediately loaned out.

Not any more. Club knows what it is doing.

Very happy with this

Does the club have the equivalent to a complete 25-man squad out on loan yet? Disappointed if that's not the case :jester:

We're all grounded down by the inevitability of it all.

I would be excited to see him, but of course that will be in the next couple of years or so.

Therefore it’s a meh from me.

The ability for us to be able to sign such players is incredible. Having a generation of talented individuals who see Brighton as a great place to come and develop towards playing Premier League football puts us ahead of most other sides in terms of long term opportunities. We could unearth a superstar (saving us £50m+) or just a first team regular for us (£20m+) or maybe have some signings who we sell on to other clubs because they are surplus to requirements. We'd probably have an incredible side in an under 23's tournament

I did used to get frustrated when we signed an exciting player and then loaned them out.

But I've learned that patience and doing things the right way at the right times is worth it.

Even though I'd love to see this guy in a Brighton shirt tomorrow, I only have to think of how well Moder and Mac Allister are doing right now to know that this guy's time will come and we should just look forward to it when it happens. Same with Caciado, who I am guessing we might see next season.

At some point in the future we are likely to see Kozlowski, Moder, Mwepu and Caciado as our main midfield options, we are so prepared for the future it's amazing.

Think of all the attacking talent we still have to come too, Zeqiri, Khadra, Mitoma.

So exciting.

Agreed.

This is the sort of signing we now make:

Yes but we may walk out in front of a bus tomorrow.

Personally I am old school and want our purchases to be available and to be in contention, not farmed out to some Belgium team I don’t give two ****s about. I have seen so many players come and go in my 48 years of supporting us that I am well past looking forward to players who may or may not play for us in 5 years time

I think that approach leaves us a lot more vulnerable long term. Injuries to key players, key players out of contract who won't re-sign, etc ... if you only ever sign players "for now" you leave yourself open to sliding out of contention if those signings are duds. You don't have to look very far to see that problem, there's a perfect example in our strike force: it's the one area of the field where I feel we've not done well enough signing for the future, and when we've signed for now we've ended up with more duds than successes.
