We can probably just copy and paste the following for most weeks;

Lallana and Webster are a doubt after suffering a knock.

Actually, from the club site;

Roberto De Zerbi confirmed on Friday at his pre-match press conference that he has a fully-fit squad to chose from with Adam Webster back in contention. De Zerbi said that Tariq Lamptey will play for the under-21s against Chelsea on Friday.

Like to see Enciso get a bit more time in this one.

Bumped into each other in the car park

 

[Napper]

makes sense , none of them look up to it ( yet )

 

[Gabbafella]

I saw Lallana in his Range Rover the other day, probably took a sharp corner or braked too hard, out for the season no doubt.

Not this week because according to RDZ everyone - bar Moder - is fit.

If those 3 are off on loan, we’ll 100% be bringing in a Caicedo replacement(s).

I can’t understand if it’s Lamptey’s fitness or his poor decision making/passing (see Arsenal at home last year) that is concerning RDZ the most?

He said this about the Caicedo replacement when asked in the press conference - "We are working on a new midfielder..."

This twitter / x posting is still inconsistent for me:

Surely that would mean the end of Alzate as a future Brighton player? - that would be a shame IMHO. I can see loans for some of out PL2 players - Moran, Samuels, Peupion - but Ayari, and particularly Buonanotte? - won't that leave us a bit short of club depth?

Caveat: yes, I'm well aware that the club know better than I do!

 

[um bongo molongo]

I worry a bit about this:
“RDZ says without Caicedo it’s important not to lose possession easily”

He’s not wrong, but our entire style requires a swashbuckling approach and if the coach and team are worried about losing the ball without Moises to tidy up, it’s a complete change of mentality/approach from losing one player. Shows how important it is to find a good replacement quickly.

Pervis all good then

 

[Hugo Rune]

Must be.

But, as I have pointed out in the Alzate thread, we are blessed with similar players.

We don’t however have many (if any) similar players to Caicedo.

It’s a case of ‘too many’ rather than ‘not good enough’.

 

[Hiheidi]

On the bright side, last time we played Wolves neither Caicedo nor Mac Allister were on the team.

I was thinking that too about those two. Although maybe it's because the club is looking at two more MC-type replacements, in which case both Ayari and Buonanotte could benefit from loan spells. If only one new one comes in, then maybe only one of Ayari/Buonanotte goes out on loan?

I would be very surprised if Buonanotte went out on loan as he has been in most matchday squads since he arrived and he would be one of the 9 attacking players that RDZ mentioned last week. He will get plenty of opportunities with us once the Europa League gets going.

Depends on who we sign.

Although both transfers have seemingly died, it was heavily rumoured that we’d targeted Cole Palmer or Mohammed Kudus. With either of those arriving, Buonanotte’s game time reduces substantially. If we get a similar player such as Lazar Samardzic, he’d surely be off on loan too. He needs a lot of game time to develop I think, more than we can give.
