Good news, along with Solly's new contract and Andone's imminent departure to Cadiz.
We just need Locadia out and a new striker in to replace Andone and it will have been a good window. This side has a nice balance to it:
Sanchez - Lamptey - Cucurella - Veltman - Webster - Dunk - Bissouma - Lallana - Gross - Trossard - Maupay

As long as veltman and lamptey come back soon yes, otherwise having roberts as our only back up defender is worrying

Mwepu needs work, Mac for March sorry Solly fans Mac’s an Argentinian international and a better player IMO. Lallana class above has to start when fit.

Team selection is tough when you have to leave quality players out. Putting them in is the easy bit
Imagine the selection dilemmas we'll have if we sign Cucerella and Nunez. Plus, Veltman, Lamptey, Burn, Welbeck are fit. Our second XI would probably stay up!
But it never works like that. Signings fall through, others will get injured.

Indeed but those two can be swapped out with March and trossard.

Steady Fareham…….
March undroppable IMO too!
But we need to improve the overall squad to make the top 10, which we're doing, and the advantage of potentially having all these options is with a clever coach like Potter is that I have every faith he will use the right players in the right games.
Brian Owen says:-
"A report in the last few minutes suggests Albion have deposited the release fee to take Cucurella from Getafe.
I immediately checked that here and was told "nothing has changed". There is a suspicion of an attempt to use the media trying to attract other bids.
Remember Cucurella has been ruled out until the international break anyway so there is no need to rush. Whether he has been ruled out because of "niggles" or because he doesn't really want to play is being debated. I am told he is "like crazy" to come to the Premier League.
Remember, Cucurella was linked with Burnley interest recently and that was quickly shot down in East Lancs. So they are, it seems, trying to work the market. That said, I'd still expect him to come to Brighton."

Very plausible. How would the twitter fella have known?

March will stay at LWB , but we need proper coverage as he’ll get injuries, will need resting , particularly if we go a long way in the cups
Dan Burn isn’t really the answer although he’s done well enough
This is also competition for places , Solly will have to keep performing if he’s to retain his starting place
This guy has to dislodge him .
It’s win / win as far as I can see

Mrs LLF says Cucurella sounds like some kind of exotic disease.
I think his signing - as much as anything - means we can play a back 4 in matches - I'd like to see Veltman as the RB if Lamptey not fit. Having Veltman as the RCB at times means we could move to it in-game also. Potter loves all this tactical flexibility stuff.
Solly is a great LWB but not as suited to LB as Cucurella, it seems.
