    You've got yourself a decent player. Be interesting to see how he does in the Prem, he does lack a bit of pace which may be a bit of an issue in a higher league, but get the ball in the box and he'll score you goals against any defence. Scored goals against Arsenal, Sunderland, Newcastle so can do it against Prem clubs and also scored against everyone in the top 6 this season, include a couple against you guys as you are probably well aware!

    Not sure how you guy normally play but he's been the main CF with 2 wide supporting players all his time for Brighton, hasn't really had a strike partner so don't know if he'd have to adapt to a new system there?

    I think he'll get you 10 goals this season. Just don't let him take any penalties <ok>

    £8m seems a lot, but to Brighton he is going to be very hard to replace. Not just his goals (top scorer in last 2 years) but his general hold up play and bringing others into play. When you're in trouble he can hold the ball up and win fouls and relieve the pressure very well. May not seem that much, but in the Prem if you're trying to hang onto a 1-0 with 5 minutes to go it can be invaluable.

    <laugh> ... every team in the Prem or aspiring to be in it is buddy ... with the possible exception of Burnley (who don't have the money) who I sincerely want to survive ...

    Lol. It's good that you can laugh at your own club like that. Most fans are too blinkered to see the truth.

    ... this would very much reflect the views of the majority of Brighton fans ... and indeed mirrors my thoughts on the lad and why I'm particularly excited by his arrival ... here's hoping "The Cyclone" will cause a lot of damage to PL defences ...

    Mahrez and Ulloa partnership will be brilliant to watch IMO. Saw today that Mahrez put in 26 crosses against Reading!

    Both Knockaert and Mahrez have the ability of making a yard of space against a defender and putting in a cross. If the delivery is right Ulloa will put them away more often then not

    Let's not forget Albrighton. I'd love to see us play this as a front 4, but accept it might not be realistic:

    Ulloa
    Mahrez - Knockaert - Albrighton

    Not sure it´s moving is it, or do you mean because they look very shady ?

    They are both right wingers and, to me anyway, dont look confortable or effective on the left
