Gareth did you fuck with his brakes on his bike?

How is this still a debate?

Really don’t give a shit. He’s 3rd or 4th. Hope he only gets pitch time in friendlies.

You don’t ever replace Fab, just a new young mobile CB who’s decent on the ball is the hope. I think the idea would be Botman continues to develop his ball playing ability and Lewis Hall’s ball playing replaces Trippier’s at some point. The right sided DEF of Trippier and Schars ball playing will eventually be moved to left sided DEF with Botman and Hall..and the right side will be the ball carriers with Tino and the Fab replacement?

While Brighton are really a data driven club with a very good transfer model, they are a club in transition from the manager position…and their sales haven’t gone on to be absolute world beaters at this point. Which I assume would cause some pause on the flip for a buying club. Caciedo been up to? How about Bissouma? I hope Minteh goes on and does something great for his career. Literally an asset profited off of - and while I was really excited about his energy and potential, I care more about keeping the top end gems of the club than this lad.

Will root for Billie like he’s my own family for the rest of his career. Sad to see him go but it had to happen.

I’d take the points hit over selling a gem.

Mine did too ffs.

Fuck off with all of this man. Not today. Not ever.

Id move Anderson and Longstaff and Wilson if that meant 30m and keeping Minteh and the gems.

This is what I’m pinning it on too, or even Wilson, Trippier or Longstaff.

Elanga with proper coaching would be scary

Paqueta is cooked.

I really like Krafth, but really don't want him more than 3rd choice. Geertruida also linked who can play RCB and RB

Where was their real interest?

It appears the only PL club interested in him currently is a club who has been staring at the brink of relegation and bankruptcy.

Refusing to play at Lyon to play for Everton is probably the single dumbest thing he could ever consider.

As much as I agree its wild to drop Saka, there is something clearly not even right with him either. And maybe it's more to do with what is around him. Palmer came on and looked far more creative in his passing, take ons and movement.

I wouldn't take any money for him. First off, nobody is going to pay us 150m+ anyway as nobody can afford that today. Secondly, it's stupid.

The fact football is now more a conversation about PSR and Related Party Transactions and other absurdly invented / crafted "sustainability" measures is absolutely boring and appalling. Fuck clean off.

Unless Shaw magically shows up for the knockouts it was really stupid to take him and then try and shoehorn Trippier at LB. Surely there are passable LB’s who could get a decent job done while maintaining width and balance. I could name 2 that play for Newcastle that would have at least helped kept some decent shape for England.

Jude may work as a 10 for Real but he’s not a 10 for England. He should be back to playing as a box to box, but attacking 8 role where he’s got far more influence on the game. He doesn’t have Valverde, Kross, etc behind him or Vini and Rodrygo. England either need to have Palmer or Foden as the 10 or abandon that setup and go with 2 8s and a sitting 6.

Just have him do both jobs.

The aggressive attacking styles of Gordon and Palmer are 100% needed in this team from the start.
