He's brilliant going forward. Has that ability of being able to carry the ball half the length the pitch and give it to a team mate. Massive quality to have .

Spurs in for Mbuemo apparently.

I’d be disappointed, we’d finally get to the point of having real depth out wide (assuming we sign a RW) only to lose it instantly. If we need to make a sale I think there are better options. Let’s not forget this guy took Gordon’s spot and held it from him.

Yeah, they're both excellent young full backs in different ways. Always been more of a Tino guy, because I love his ability to just shut down opposing wingers, which is so easy to overlook. Also think we haven't seen his full potential unlocked going forward down that right side, because of the players we've used ahead of him on the wing, as they don't combine well with an overlapping full back.

These things. Creepy as hell. https://www.facebook.com/share/r/14GARuDsvJR/

I'd be devastated if we sold Tino this summer like.

Full disclosure I didn't watch the game but can anyone give a single argument for Henderson playing in this game and being in this squad. I'm not that invested in England so I don't really care but I honestly can think of a single good reason.

100% he's the smart move. For Pedro, Elanga et al you pay a 10 million plus premium. With him you have a good chance of getting him 5 million or more under value as Chelsea are spoilt toddlers with shiny-new-shite syndrome. And all the arguments about Howe improving players for signing Elanga and Pedro still apply.

Tino is probably the best one on one defensive fullback in the league. Definitely don’t want to sell, but I don’t really want to sell anyone except the shit lads.

We shouldn't be selling anyone that's held down a place at times last season imo. Just means they'll need replaced too. Opposite of strengthening.

Tino is a much better defender than Hall, he’s also got pace which Hall will never have. If we’re talking about better on the ball, Hall wins hands down, but always worry about him when he’s up against a pacy winger.

Perhaps you're right, I just don't entertain the idea of selling him.

We should keep Gordon but if a really good offer comes in then we should be open to it as well.

It'll be tough to make a profit on him.

Is it not just a case that we don't want to sell Isak, Bruno or Tonali (now Tino going from his thread), so if there has to be a big sale, he's the one that'd fetch the next most? I don't particularly want him to leave but if it meant we got 2-3 more players on top of what we would have, I can see why we'd do it.

Totally agree. Why is it whenever one of our players goes through a sticky patch, we want to sell them. He's quite obviously a good player who we'll need next season. Get behind the lad!

Wonder if we'll try and shift Barnes this summer?

His linkup play is great as well as his through balls. very nice having someone like this closer to Isak. Despite his size and strength he’s able to change direction easily with the ball under control because of his balance. He‘s very good at a lot of things.

Think he was LW and second striker at Watford, which is encouraging because it probably means if we sign him we'll also sign an out-and-out RW too

The hatred was absolutely visceral. Several on here covered themselves in shame with the attacks.

I think people just don’t have a deep enough liking for him because they hated him before he arrived. So any poor period and he’s not going to get the support he should get.

If we're spending £60m+ on him I'd be wanting more than 5 non-penalty goals, like. I dunno, I sound miserable but I really hope all these links are smokescreens because I don't like any of them

Had a deeks on the Brighton forum. What a bunch of utter gimps

He'll be both a back up to and play up with Isak. Honestly think he'll displace Joelinton in some games and play further forward with Tonali and Bruno behind. If he can play wide right too he's actually a completely sensible signing. Thats 3 positions. Could maybe cover LW too. I thought he was a RW at Watford tbf, but I cant remember entirely. Might be wrong there.
