@Darren Peacock’s Ponytail Chiesa to Newcastle rumours increasing....find it more believable now pool have spunked 70 ms on Szloboszlai but I'll believable it when I see it.
So you're saying Chiesa for our left sided forward, Isak striker and Diaby right sided forward? Nice. Joelinton, Guimaraes and Tonali across our midfield? Looking tasty. Just need those LB and CB signings then...
I'm again calling this one horse ****e. Just can't see it. Genuinely have no idea who we're going to sign next, but you'd think the board are going to have to go pretty big this summer and worry about it (to an extent) later.
I'd imagine it's all smoke and mirrors - defensive links seem stronger atm and where we need the most cover at present so I'd be amazed if we sign a wing/forward before a defender.
Just so long as we sign SOMEBODY else. Come on Ashworth, work your magic here. Where are all these gems that Brighton keep finding? And I don't mean more of the 'one for the future' types, I mean the kind Brighton have had in the first team in the last few seasons that mobody had heard of.
I think the level we want just takes longer. Look at City, European Champs can't get Botman (recent revelation) so will get Gvardiol but it takes time. This is why I think rumours like Chiesa, Barnes, McTominary are wrong; these are easily available players. We're after people that are hard to get.
Chiesa isn't a player I would class as easily available... Putting his name in a pool with McTominay and Barnes is laughable.
Taylor Harwood Bellis - been touting this kid for ages. Honestly think once the Euro U21's is over he would be a perfect shout for the CB position and possibly why it's all seeming a bit slow on the transfer front if we are looking for players with development potential. Maybe Luke Thomas, Max Aarons or Ben Johnson also for the LB spot also.
