Gallowgate Toon Posted August 18, 2023 Share Posted August 18, 2023 2 hours ago, The College Dropout said: Paqueta will have a better season this time around. Aye he’s not best suited to Moyes ball but he will show more like he did towards the end of last season. He's a streaky player. Going off his history, he's as likely to have a cold streak from now as he is to continue his late season form. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Matt1892 Posted August 18, 2023 Share Posted August 18, 2023 Mac Allister is decent but has become overrated when his profile shot up off the back of being part of the World Cup winning team. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Same thing with Enzo. Hes a very good player. I don’t think either are any better than Sandro or Bruno but have a much higher profile. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
andycap Posted August 18, 2023 Share Posted August 18, 2023 Most of brightons team are good solid players that look great in the system they were in. Thats what I think elevates there value to daft money, and the vultures of the so called big six cannot resist having a nibble. Fair play to brighton there ownership isn't daft.

The College Dropout Posted August 18, 2023 Share Posted August 18, 2023 MacAllister had 1 year left on his contract at the start of last season and got that deal prior to the World Cup. Hence negotiating a good release clause price. Clubs like West Ham could’ve put the feelers out to him and have been rebuffed. That’s what I think may have happened to us with Maddison. He probably said that he didn’t fancy the move so we weren’t linked again this summer. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

He probably said that he didn’t fancy the move so we weren’t linked again this summer. I also think it's a genuine factor in Brightons operating model. They get players in with the promise of game time and show casing their talents in the premier League. Maybe they were unlucky setting McAllister's contract at 45 million in a summer when fees jumped up massively but then at the same time got lucky that there was no clause on Cacidoes.

They also pay big wages. Why wouldn’t a player go there if they pay the fee? Your take is a little bizarre. Are you suggesting he should’ve gone to Real Madrid etc? They obviously weren’t interested.

gbandit Posted August 18, 2023 Share Posted August 18, 2023 I reckon they will sell before the end of the window. Doesn’t serve to have a player who’s desperate to get out when you’re trying to get promoted. They need to line someone up though and won’t get anyone near his quality with the money they have to spend because of being in the championship Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

As much as I hate them, Liverpool are a massive massive club that any player would be lucky to play for. They hit his release clause, put triple his wages on the table, he signed. It’s incredibly straight forward. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

rebelrouser Posted August 18, 2023 Share Posted August 18, 2023 I read Mac Allister was £35m with addons to £55m, which is basically what we paid for Tonali who is a year younger. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
