Imagine we sold Bailey, Pau and Konsa in the same window, would that be good business? Yeah but we are trying to progress. Palace are just trying to tread water. They are happy with 12th and no cup runs every season. They are probably looking at the three teams that came up and realizing that even 35 points will be enough to stay up this season. They can get some loans to plug gaps in the squad. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
useless Posted August 23 Share Posted August 23 People talking about West Ham and Fulham, but if Kadıoğlu and O'Riley deals go ahead, Brighton will have spent around £200m. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sne Posted August 23 Author Share Posted August 23 Viktor Gyökeres with a hattrick so far tonight. He has 6 in 3 now. Wonder if Arsenal or someone else will pony up before the window closes. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yep it's basically gone totally unnoticed. They won't keep buying good players, eventually they'll sign a bunch of duds. It will be interesting to see what happens then. For now they should have enough this season to get back in the top ten, might need Ferguson to get back to top form. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Brighton needed to be signing all these player last summer. They got injuries and in the end had a very thin squad trying to compete in prem and Europa and it got too much for them after xmas. Matt O'Riley is exactly the sort they sign but not sure why they signed Rutter aswell as it's two players for one position and if Evan Ferguson gets firing then Joao Pedro will most likely just play as support striker. Guessing they'll loan Enciso out on deadline day as hard to see him getting minutes. Andersen for 30m is one of the bargains of the summer by today's prices, West Ham should've signed him instead of paying 40m for Kilman. Palace really can't afford to sell Guehi so imagine they'll just keep rejecting bids by Newcastle. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sne Posted August 24 Author Share Posted August 24 (edited) Really hope Osimhen ends up at PSG rather than Chelsea. And I really hope we don't play the useful idiots in facilitation a Chelsea move by taking on any of their players so they can fit him in. Their benefit would almost certainly be bigger than ours in such a scenario. Edited August 24 by sne 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dunno how they're managing to do so well to spend so much on strikers who then don't score in the pub league that they dominate Icardi, muani, ramos paid about £8m a league goal for them lot Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Needs to bulk up a little for the league. I remember the people hyping them up because he’s great on FIFA. I like Brighton and how they recruit, they also get way too much hype every year without doing that much. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Barco hype last season was bizarre. He had barely played for Boca but because he was an FM hero people assumed was nailed on elite signing Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Just something about his personality and I think he's a bit limited if you're playing a more patient style. He's better with a more direct team pinging quick balls up to the penalty area. Mbuemo is a better fit for the top teams, younger and very good in a counter attacking system or slower build up. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sne Posted August 24 Author Share Posted August 24 I imagine most serious clubs wouldn't bet on Toney having learnt from his mistakes so it's an obvious risk he's going to do something moronic again. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
