KDT Posted yesterday at 07:43 Share Posted yesterday at 07:43 Brighton starting to pay some big fees for players, a lot more rides on these than some of the under the radar ones they were making and spinning a profit from. It’ll be interesting to see how many are a hit because there’s certainly more pressure on them now. For what it’s worth, I wouldn’t have touched Summerville or Rutter they need to both be massively more consistent. That Leeds team they were in should’ve walked the league last year on paper. Their performance in the play-off final was awful. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sibierski Posted yesterday at 08:08 Share Posted yesterday at 08:08 CM is what I feel they badly need too. KDB is aging, Foden may be needed outwide or even up top at times, then it’s 2 youngsters, or two average guys Nunes/Kovacic. Don’t have that top impactful CM. Giving they’ve targeted Rice, Pacqueta and Bellingham last season, and ended up with Nunes, seems they were set on a 6ft+ CM that could travel with the ball beyond players. Maybe target similar or go elsewhere. Ederson would be ideal for them IMO if staying on that theme. Think they still sign a wide player too who can play up front. Could be a named player, or someone random, like when they signed Gomez. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

AyeDubbleYoo Posted yesterday at 08:48 Share Posted yesterday at 08:48 Phillips is a quality player though, could be a good move if he starts every game under less pressure. Hope he does well TBH, don't know if his flop at City is because he wasn't working hard enough. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

They paid about 35m for him. Leeds fans are furious the clause was only ~5m more than they paid. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

simonsays Posted yesterday at 10:02 Share Posted yesterday at 10:02 Will be really interesting to see How Brighton do this season. They are bringing in a fair few new players for decent money which is something of a change in approach. With the new teenage manager coming is as well it could go either way Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Assuming Brighton are funding this with the Gilmour sale. Big gamble signing someone who was as poor as he was last time he was in the league, however he was an absolute assist machine last season in the Championship. I like these types of signings.
