We need to do our business as quickly and efficiently as possible and then just sit. Let the circus die down. Get on with the football. It must be absolutely draining for everyone to have this much attention on us, even though it's great for the clubs profile, and it's time to get on with the show.

Excellent. Another Brighton Bubble piece of crap. Have we not figured this guy is NITK on anything?

Isn't that the point of their medal system? Gold for reliable, silver for modest and bronze for unlikely? I may have that wrong, I think they have a 'reliability index on their profile'

That précis reminds me of that gangly CM we got from Chav$ea who ended up at Woking not so long ago
Rohan Ince - was INSANELY overrated by Brighton fans. Second touch was always a tackle. Couldn't head. Poor first touch.

Hope he's doing ok though.

Yes that’s spot on.

There’s not a rating when they’re a ‘new’ source that they’re unfamiliar with.

Ideally one of the below:

Federico Redondo
Fabricio Diaz
Samuel Ricci
Alan Varela
Is this the stage where we all pretend to have heard of them ?

Heard an amusing exchange on the radio over the weekend (can't remember if it was Talksport or BBC5 - I was channel hopping to try and keep up with the Caicedo saga) and one of the presenters mentioned one of those sites that does analytics, diagnostics, all that pallaver. They had been trying to find players who were closest to matching Caicedo's profile. One of the closest they found was "a young Scottish footballer, Marc Lee-oh-nard (I kid you not - Lee-oh-nard!) who plays for Northampton Town in League 1." The other presenter, in a surprised tone that suggested he'd just Googled him, came back with, "and he's on loan from Brighton."

Cue a couple of seconds of stunned silence! No, I'm not suggesting for one moment that Marc Leonard is our ready-made Caicedo replacement - certainly not yet anyway!

Football fans love someone who can tackle. It was forever thus

Maybe, but just how amazing would it be if we could pull out another academy gem right now to avoid the inflated transfer fees we'll be quoted.

Seems like agents are using our new wonder kid status as leverage to go out to tw@ts like fab rom to bump up their clients prices and offers. We are probably in a ridiculously complicated market now worldwide.
