    Chelsky are valued 2 bn odd by the Deloitte "Money league" etc.
    The fact there is been consistent silverware also makes
    them N times more valuable than the Toon.

    But again, the jump from 2 to 4+ bn is not clear
    (the Roman loan debt question etc) .

    Burnley IMHO are going to need at least a non-loss
    from the Spurs game (so PLENTY of time for mega
    training sessions vs Brighton-ball) .

    Nice to know that Man Utd raise their game for us, but not for Brighton...

    Would say it’s embarrassing for Utd but these days… well it just ain’t.

    And as for Potter… quality manager.

    Not sure how much longer Brighton will be able to hold onto him.

    More than once in recent days I've seen a fee of £10m quoted as compo, as opposed to the £20m we were reportedly quoted last summer

    Worth £30m to any top club who’ll give him the backing.

    If Conte leaves then I think he’s Spurs bound

    As long as Levy don’t get sentimental and go back for Poch

    If we didn’t have Conte I’d be outside Levy’s house right now waving a “Get Potter” banner.

    He’s absolute quality.

    25% of all Brighton’s home goals this season scored in the first hour v Utd.
    The kind of stat which tells you everything you need to know about just how bad Utd are

    With 30 minutes added on still time for five very dubious penalties

    I think this means Europa at least now.

    Yeah I’d say so.

    Happy with that too. Obviously want CL, especially over Arsenal but I’d have snapped your hand off for 5th after we hired (and then fired) Nuno.

    I think we have a new dictionary definition for the phrase "buyer's remorse"

    I’d rather have him than Poch back. Problem is if Conte leaves then Kane will want out again too.

    Potter would be a long term manager and another project.

    It's tough to gauge

    The big issue with Nuno was that the players never respected him, which was always going to end in tears based on Connor Coady's comments about Nuno ruling over Wolves with a combination of fear and deep respect - and since you can likely count the number of players on one hand who had the latter, the former was never an option and it unraveled

    If Conte does walk, then either we take the easy option and get a coach with a Big Reputation™ in (and Mancini has also been linked in the last couple of weeks) under the assumption that the short-term reaction will keep the squad together, or we find a coach with similar qualities to Poch who galvanises the squad into his vision - but what we don't do is bring in somebody thinking they can steady the ship for a season before we look elsewhere, because last summer was like pissing mayonnaise because of that
