Nucasol Posted July 1 Share Posted July 1 And so ends the Minteh journey. Must admit I’d have loved to see him given a chance this season but ultimately his sale was needed for the greater good. Credit the club for having the smarts to do a Chelsea/Citeh-esque flip. I imagine we’ll have to get used to this scenario happening more frequently.

Geordie_once_removed Posted July 1 Share Posted July 1 If his main position was anything other than RW I would be very happy with this. However as his main position is the weakest in our current squad and he looked a great prospect it does leave a bitter taste. I felt his signing showed real planning for the future with a more established RW signed and then the two of them pushing each other, while older players like Almiron and Murphy moved on.

The College Dropout Posted July 1 Share Posted July 1 4 hours ago, Zero said: It doesn’t matter. Attributes like pace and acceleration, his style of dribbling, number of touches, vision, ability to pick up teammates run while dribbling etc would apply to any league. He also got a great left foot which doesn’t require much space to hit a powerful shot. Antony’s clip at the Dutch League shows the opposite. Even though he was toying opponents, he didn’t outpace opponents regularly - which becomes his biggest weakness now and makes him one of the worst transfer in history. Aye - i'm keeping my stocks in Minteh and look forward to seeing him play in the PL. I think he has all the playing tools needed to go very far in this game. He's got pace, he looks big at about 6ft. He's quick now, he can get a yard quicker with more strength. Put it this way. He has nearly all the same football attributes as Gordon - quick, tall, carries the ball, presses aggressively. With the added bonus of being better 1v1. Gordon has a better weaker foot mind. He's got the raw technical and physical materials. He's got the eye test (minus the one footed thing). He's got the underlying stats. He's got the productivity stats. Everything that can be measured by sight or numbers - he has - which is why Brighton have signed him for £30m. The rest is mentality, luck with injuries, physical ceiling, technical ceiling etc. that we don't know. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ikon Posted July 24 Share Posted July 24 (edited) Nice goal really. Very calm and composed. With his pace he will cause all sorts of trouble. Even quick and good defenders will find it hard against him I reckon. Edited July 24 by Ikon Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

nufcjmc Posted July 24 Share Posted July 24 You just have to wish him luck other than when he plays against us. Ideally miggy/wilson/targett/longstaff all left first and he was given a chance. But no one desperate to break the bank on any of them. If he does go on to start most games and get into double figures of goals and assists you just have to take it on the chin. Similar to how I am sure man.city feel about palmer. We got good money and if he is a super star I don't see him sticking around Brighton long term either. It's more painful because he plays in a position we needed and cost us relatively speaking buttons. I am sure if given him, Bruno, isak, Gordon to lose instead of it is an easy choice.

Owt to have some ammo against the club, let it go man Why does it have to be ammo against the club? IMO Minteh is the only player other clubs genuinely wanted for a good price bar the Golden 3. So we had to sell him. I don't like it but we didn't have a better route at that time so I understand. I'm still keeping an eye out for him and hope he does well. It will burn if he goes on to do well. Doesn't mean I'm using it as ammo against the club... we can be mature about things.
