Apparently Nickson was at Celtic v Leipzig during the week, think we’ve watched Riley a few times now from Celtic.

 

Probably an unpopular opinion but not fussed on Maddison, can’t get away from his constant play acting and don’t think he does it enough consistently for price we’d have to pay.

 

Would be happy if they just went all in on Diaby and a defensive midfielder to release Bruno further forward.

 

Realistically I can see the Brazilian kid from Vasco and a winger signing in January.

 

 

 


Who? Matthew O'Riley?

I’ve definitely had a reprisal of Maddison’s character but I still have concerns about his lack of athleticism if he’s going to be part of the same midfield as Bruno.

 

Either way it’s  going to be fascinating to see how EH evolves this squad over the next 18 month. Feel like we are a budget Liverpool in our style. If intensity is indeed our identity then not sure how Maddison slots into the squad. Today highlighted again we probably have a greater need for a DM so we can free up Bruno.

 

He's a cracking player but I agree. I think you can have one player who is not the fastest, especially one who basically controls the game like Bruno, but I would be wary of having too many, especially if he's an attacker. Not sure about Madisson's pace mind, is he lacking a bit in that department?

This is the problem though, we already signed one and he's bloody injured. I had the same internal discussion about right back. What if Trippier picks up a knock, we are fucked.

 

What do we do, sign another right back? Then have 3 when Krafth returns? 

 

Best case scenario for striker is that someone like Fulham need a Mitro stand in and we can flog them Wood for 10m. We could then turn our attention to someone like Joao Pedro etc but it's a real juggling act.

 

On right back, I'd seriously consider going after Lamptey who doesn't seem to get game time at Brighton. I reckon Howe would turn Lamptey into a top rank right back, especially with Trippier mentoring him.

Can see us going back in for Harrison Ashby for RB.

Potter said in an interview it ends in 2024.

 

Everywhere else says 2023.

 

Seems like there's an option. Not sure who needs to activate it.

Ends '23 where player has the option to extend a year (at least that is how I read the article): https://www.sussexlive.co.uk/sport/football/football-news/graham-potter-leandro-trossard-newcastle-7492528

He signed a four-year deal with Brighton when he joined them more than three years ago but it would appear he has an option to extend his deal by a further 12 months.
