Trouble with Barkley is if heās settled on a longer contract is he going to get lazy again?

I've seen a few tweets from this Owen character because of the similar name to the Argus journo. I'm confident that he just makes them up, judging by the content.
Why would Baleba being wanted by those clubs not be true? Iām sure theyāre all interested, the kid has a massive future. He won man of the match for us two/three games in a row just a few weeks ago. Heās a brilliant young talent.
The only thing I donāt believe about that story is the price. Weāre not going to let him go for only Ā£55m after just one season.

He acts as a Brighton news aggregator; if a relevant story is reported, he tweets the key points for Brighton followers. As it says, the Baleba story was reported in Caught Offside.
This is the latest one he's put out...

It is quite bizarre that people still haven't figured this out.

Out: Dahoud, Igor, Milner, Steele, Edit: Lamptey
In (position): RB, LB, CB, DM, ST (only if Undav isnāt returning)
I understand we buy potential, but it would be lovely if any new additions could be in first team contention by the second half of the season.

An error of omission. I knew Iād missed somebody.

Famous Last Words
Personally Iād be looking to move on
Steele - I think RDZ leaving is the final nail in the coffin for him. Verbruggen has to be first choice next season and Rushworth should be competing for his spot.
Lamptey - He just canāt stay fit and losing that yard of pace makes him so much less effective when he can.
At least one of Webster, Veltman & Igor - This is probably my most controversial take but weāve slowly sleepwalked in to having a collection of injury prone, aging centre back options. Dunk & Veltman are 32, Webster turns 30 this year & Iām not sure Igor really fits in to a back 4. Whilst CBās normally mature slightly later is a noticeably different age range to the rest of the squad.
Who (and how many) Iād sell depends on the next manager. If they want to play 3 at the back then I think Igor should stay, for example. However if weāre going to play a flat back 4 then I wouldnāt be opposed to two of them leaving and a younger, faster CB coming in.
A big chunk of the loan army - I think we need a clear out. Is Alzate good enough? Is Moran ever going to be good enough? Is Sarmiento ever going to be good enough? Ayari, Offiah, Turns, Sima, the Polish lad I canāt spell, Dahoud, Weir. If they arenāt good enough then get rid, get them off the wage bill and clear the path for the youth players who might be good enough. This also applies to the likes of Peupion & Chouchane.
Jury out on Moder & Dahoud, again with it depending on what formation weāre going to play next season. If weāre going to have a two man midfield and we sign the midfielder we desperately need then theyāre potentially behind Baleba, GroĆ, Gilmour & Hinshelwood as well as any new midfielders .
I also wouldnāt have kept Milner but itās too late for that.

Anyone else thinking Buonanotte on loan? Could do with the games and not convinced heāll get them here.
