Nicky forster was way better.

Posh Spice is a slapper,
There is a dirty rumour,
That when she's shagging Beckham,
She thinks of Yves Bissouma

 

[blockhseagull]

Yes, the bit where it says he can play in a midfield 2 as long as there is a good tackler alongside him who can win the ball

So a central midfielder !

 

[the right footed denilson]

Doesn't sound like that in the Ligue 1 scouts view in the Argus... Pogba-esque seems more the opinion

Pogba IS a box to box midfielder. For France he basically plays everywhere between defence and attack. He just has the luxury of being given very little defensive responsibility.

Only from what I've read he is a centre/defensive midfielder who likes to play from deep and dribble with the ball.

 

[the right footed denilson]

I think you're rather jumping the gun here.

I believe we haven't even seen the best of Gross yet, due to the general shitehousary that he was playing with.
The thought of Pascal teaming up with players who can move AND score goals is too exciting for words.

If Pascal isn't still my favourite player next May, we are in for a fantastic season.

Exactly. First half of the season Gross was on an entirely different level to the rest. His vision was utterly wasted.

Yeah. I was just responding to the people who reckoned he was a defensive midfielder and good at tackling, with the opinion of the scout who reckoned winning the ball was his weakest attribute. I don't know, I've never seen him play.

 

[Harry Wilson's tackle]

Too short.

I know. I'm sure this guy is too. Just responding to the opinion that Bissouma is a defensive midfielder, because it doesn't sound like that, more Pogba than Stephens

 

[Tony Towner's Fridge]

Could be. I've a funny feeling that Gross won't be in our best XI by the end of the season. crazy thought, but this Brighton squad seems to be being improved very rapidly indeed

Nonsense....he will positively revel (Alex?) in the new found 'Mobile Fluid Albion' formation...

Gosh, I am excited.......

a combination of Bissouma, Andone, Locadia, Propper, Izquierdo. just a hunch

If we go 4.3.3 I think it will look a bit like this:

Propper, Stephens, Bissouma;
Gross, Andone, Izquierdo.

Gross played a lot as the man on the right of a front 3 at his previous club I believe.

 

[DavidinSouthampton]

Well at least we know he's stationary and wearing the shirt, not unaccounted for on the M25....

As long as he's not stationery - although I do like the expression "pushing the envelope", whatever it may mean.


But joking aside, exciting is the word!

I can live with that

Gross does seem more effective on the right side. That cross against Arsenal is an example.

Wow what a summer. Very exciting singing.... speaking of which - song?

In every clip I saw of him at his previous club he played further over to the right so you could be correct. AK really found his feet towards the end of the season though. The big question is what of Locadia?

 

[DavidinSouthampton]

Too short.

He's as tall as our goalkeeper! What more do you want?

 

[Couldn't Be Hyypia]

He turned down Porto to join little old Brighton.

Truly strange times.

(and yes I know its about money, but we saw off Porto to sign a European club player!!)

I do like the idea of something to the tune of My Sharona...

probably just dah dah dah dah dah dah dah, dah dah dah dah dah dah dah, dah dah dah dah dah dah dah, Yves Bissouma!

We know now that something has gotta give. Will it be Knockaert? Murray? Locadia? Gross? Propper? Izquierdo? Or will injuries resolve all that?
