  1. Are you confident all of those are better than Howe?
  2. I didn’t see the game today but I feel like he should’ve just started the exact same team as the last match. Bollocks to tiredness and all that shit. They were in good spirits and had just rattled the best team in the league. Taking out Gordon and Tonali seemed an error. That said, people have said we played well in the first half so I dunno.
  3. But standing at all was for fans, wasn’t it?
  4. IIRC the second bit of the quote and the ‘unbelievable things’ is about winning the league and trophies etc, achieving the lofty ambitions that Staveley set. He also said that everything she said is still the ultimate ambition. It’s just more difficult because of the rules.
  5. If possible he would be class, yeah. But fear he's done too well for us to get him at a reasonable price.
  6. Players wanting to leave is fair enough, I was more talking about actively planning to sell our stars to buy more prospects.
  7. The midfield issues are caused by being so bad at retaining the ball as well. Killer in a team which wants to flood forward quickly.
  8. But we’re challenging for top 4-6 now, where will we be when we sell star players for more prospects?
  9. I understand this criticism, but also low blocks are hard to break down. That’s their purpose. Otherwise poor teams would just get smashed every week and finish the season on zero points. Particularly difficult if your team isn’t built for possession football of course.
  10. I stopped reading at Craig Hope.
  11. Fans’ heads have been fucked with due to PSR. Anyone who actually wants to sell Bruno or Isak is misguided IMO. Brighton are a club of loads of players at the same level, numbers on a spreadsheet, interchangeable with the next guy who comes along to replace them. I can’t speak for them, but I’d be surprised if their fans are always talking about out how much Carlos Baleba loves the club. Of course we need to manage our finances better and avoid desperation situations like this summer. But I really don’t want a ‘sell your best players’ strategy. I’m naive/optimistic in general obviously, but I really hope we can avoid becoming a soulless player import/export business.
  12. Is there a sexier phrase than ‘open talks’?
  13. There was several moments where Bruno got the ball deeper and Tonali was right behind Isak as well. They both interchanged really well.
  14. People kind of forgot he was a prospect and not a world-beater.
  15. If there's any legs in this project over the next 5 years then we should keep Isak, make him our highest paid player ever and build the team around him. For all the PSR chat we're very close to having an excellent first team.
  16. There's no possibility he leaves before the end of the season anyway, so no need to worry. See what the second part of the season brings.
  17. Yeah, we haven't really had a chance to develop a proper range I guess. We didn't have anything while Castore was doing the retail.
  18. Very tough game but maybe that fact gives Howe a chance to tell them to do what they did to Liverpool.
