  1. I am a Chelsea ST holder living in Brighton and often watch them when we are away.. Strange signing and incredible price. Atitude problem on and off field Havent spoken to one Brighton supporter who will be sorry to see him go. I must have watched him about 5/6 times and often looked like a sending off. Also club suspended him for a training ground punch up. Not a no 9 as goes out wide left a lot. Is very skillfull but doesnt get a lot of decisions because he is a diver. From little I have seen a luxury individual player who may occasionaly make something happen in box Always looking to go down . I didnt see there last few games but understand he was not put back in team after his traing ground suspension so it may be a case of falling out with colleagues. He will be a smalll fish in a big pond here so that shouldnt be a problem.
  2. I am a Chelsea ST holder. Live near Brighton and go there when Chelsea away. OK wont post anymore if not allowes opinion
  3. Differe we need to give up on Mudryknt when we play top sides but Caicedo has nothing to contribute when we are dominating and trying to break down defences. Sorry but Colwell not a top CB and surely
  4. He is clearly saying it is impossible to keep happy and work with 40 plus players so has had the balls to select 21 and hopefully will no longer be asked this question by media. He considers rightly that now out of his hands and up to club what they do with with these 20 players. Will be interesting to see what happens. It will be a buyers market and doubt anybody is going to match the wages and contracts these players are on. How on earth have we got in a position where we have players earning £200k plus a week on long contracts with no hope of playing a game for us.
  5. we cant judge the manager until we give him a decent transfer budget
  6. I give up. We now because of huge wages and long contracts have loads of unsalable players who are not good enough. Playing Caicedo every game because we payed £100m and not because he is playing well. I am sorry but a 39 year old CB will never be good enough.
  7. We need to pay what ever Brentford want for Toney. Because of what we paid manager seems obligated to play Caicedo every game. Sanchez was left out of Brighton team because his distribution nwas poor. Our manager wants a keeper that is good distribution and assume our keeper coach ex Brighton knows his weaknesses so we buy him . Mad
  8. no club should be spending £80m for a player that needs to be sent out on loan We may kid ourself that it is to help his development but is it because he is not good enough.
  9. unbelievable We sign a FB for £60m who is not good enough to get in the squad and play a CB at FB when our best FB who has been playing LW is now sub.
  10. Apart from speed not showing he has anything to offer. Hope I am proved wrong. What he needs now is to come on in last 20mins when game is stretched more.
  11. Thanks Are we now expected to think all is ok. Sorry too many people think ok to spend £50/100m on a player lose a few games and be told they are for the future. good business if we pay £5/10 and then make them better. Paid so much money for Mudryk manager obligated to put in squad when has little to offer. Also after all media hype Colwill another not ready. Had a look at stats and he was not always first choice
  12. Lost count of number of players we have bought. Trouble is they are not young cheap players we will make better and take year plus to reach PL level. We have paid huge sums and they therefore think they are super stars and should play every week. With so many expensive players not getting picked it cannot help the atmosphere in the squad. Spending over a billion will buy a lot of players but does not buy a TEAM. Sorry to say City who have the money do not act this way. 2 out and 2 quality players in that they know will fit in is there method. They dont get in the side until good enough.Take Grealish. Ages before was a regular but squad was small enough for him to always feel part of it. We now have farce of players in the squad who are clearly not up to it at the moment just because we have paid huge fees for
  13. Luton are very poor We will win easily
  14. Yes straight swap although sure club would want to pay £50m on top
  15. Chilwell was not at best but why when 2-1 down did we replace an attacking player with a defensive midfielder
  16. Mitoma is far better then any of our wide players. Get him in. Makes us stronger and them weaker
  17. yes have watched highlights of all the 3pm PL games
  18. Having just seen highlights of Brighton game we should get in and buy Mitoma. Better than any wide player we have
  19. Really like the way we are playing but no way is Colwell up to been first choice CB. Was he really first choice at Brighton
  20. That seems a very high price for a keeper that was dropped by Brighton and Spanish squad
  21. Unbelievable giving him a 6/7 year contract. Was not outstanding for Brighton and often not selected. Hope he does well and fulfills his potential. Another player that has been built up by media mainly because he is left footed and of course we don't want to risk letting another youngster go and staring elsewhere
  22. Potter was always a strange appointment. Stayed up last season with 3rd lowest no of goals. This season was 4th after 7 games and everyone thought he was gods gift. Plenty of critics here for always changing side and playing players out of position. An example is March who last season plat RW LW LWB and LB. Mitoma was in and out of side and played on right and left. Both have starred this season played every game and played in one position. It is what De Zerbi has achieved that is outstanding. Now 4th highest scorers and unless there is an injury cant remember him bring a defensive sub on. Take recent Bournemouth game one up for 70 mins,no question of trying to hold on as all 4 subs were attacking players. From Potter down so much is now wrong with Chelsea where my Father is a ST holder. Everyone you took from Brighton has had different aims for all of there careers. Why on earth did you want people from Brightons recruitment team. They have always had different aims doubt they have any contacts at major worlds best clubs where Chelsea will be doing business Cucurella another odd one. He helped us out at CB a few times to cover injuries but was not great. He was outstanding as an attacking FB and sometimes LWB. Just strange he is now playing at CB as if Potter didnt want to leave either him or Chilwell out. Looks like Potter not brave enough to make a difficult decision and just pick one of them. Fact is you have so many very good players and looks good for next season if new manager makes his mind up his best 20ish player sticks to it and not worried about upsetting anyone whatever they cost Good luck
  23. Who has gone with him ? Most new managers want and get there own players and have a clear out. Not possible here with £600m of players got in last year
  24. Why on earth is Cucurella playing as a CB. He played a few games at CB when Brighton had injuries but in general was outstanding as an attacking FB. Why with squad we have and spending £600k why do we need to play him out of position, Just seems because we paid £60m for him he has to find a place
