I understand he has great balls.

 

[Cozzy]

Great potential for the future , problem is we need it now til the end of season not in three or four years time.

 

[TottonSeagull]

Great, we’ll never hear of him again then!

Three or four years time? You're havin' a laugh - he won't get anywhere near the first team until he's too old for the U23s, and then he'll be shipped out because he has no PL experience!

Good news.

Yet here he is, with a two year contract to 2024, aged 19 and already played in the Caraboa Cup and FA cup games.

That post was towards the end of Hughton's time I think

Underlying message from the club? Burn leaves and a young centre back commits for a further 2 years.

Hughton liked defenders.

 

[GT49er]

Hughton liked defenders.

Not young ones with no PL experience he didn't (apart obviously from the ones already in the team when we got promoted).

I did check the date, and was having a pop at your prediction of his future.

Nah! - don't believe a word!

Returning to Brighton after health scare...

 

[Jambo Seagull]

Heard about this yesterday but was hoping it wasn't true. Very worrying. Hope he makes a full recovery. Had been playing well up here.

Yup - scored a goal. Hope he recovers soon.

Apologies if fixtures, but did search.
I hope he's OK.
Been here before.

Best wishes to him

 

[HangletonGull]

Oh shit hope he’s ok
