    Our so called recruitment team can’t even sort out a simple loan for a 20yo. Chelsea have stepped in and are now taking the kid. So yesterday’s flight cancellation was bollox and today’s early flight to Leeds was also bollox. The annoying thing for me is the useless, tame journalists who only tweet out something when it’s happening so it’s mostly days and days of silence. They haven’t even got the balls to apologise for getting this wrong so know fk all

    If the 9rs turn to Alex Oxlade-Chamberlain i swear to god im done with this club

    They need to do splash some cash quick and get someone creativity in. Preferably a player thats currently fit without an injury record that competes with Darren Anderton

    The Brighton kid to Chelsea makes no sense whatsoever. Chelsea loan out Guiu to Sunderland as hes only 20yo and they want him to get game time to learn his trade playing regular in the premier league. Brighton say exactly the same thing needed for the young Argie and why they refused to let him go to Italy, Germany and Spain as they wanted their 20yo kid to learn in the prem. so why would you allow him to go to Chelsea……..

    the 'flight cancelled' yesterday was maybe a 'tell' for Buonanotte

    Farke needs to be kicking underwoods door down today. He needs quality in the final third or he is cooked and we are down again

    Don’t think Buonanotte would have saved us tbh.

    He’d have played a few games, we’d have gone down, while at the same time increased the value of a Brighton player.

    Hes a good player, but if he didn't play Farkes no risk, no thrills then maybe your right <ok>

    Literally coming to the bottom of our list aren’t we? I don’t think he’d be a terrible signing but you can tell we keep going down and down. Considering we wanted a 10 or winger & now we’re bringing in an 8. I suppose Hamer can play on the wing & at 10 but not ideal. Can’t see why the Brighton lad would go to Chelsea to be a benchwarmer rather than at Brighton. Seems odd. Don’t know why Brighton would want that either.

    Exactly this. Lots of panic about all the players we've missed out on without actually knowing if we were interested or made contact in the first place.

    Its Friday. Chill, get a glass of wine and relax.

    I'll break down tomorrow's game for some so its not a shock.

    Newcastle will play us off the park. They will win the game comfortably. We'll get bullied physically and they'll press the life out of Perri.

    Its fine, we've played back to back top 4 teams and still have 3 points from 3 games. I'd have taken that before the start of the season.

    I think the panic is more long term than tomorrow mate

    We are lacking in the final third and time is running out.

    Twitter has it we're sorting out the final details. If he was always the plan (which I believe he was) then why didn't we do this at the start of the summer when we were 1st linked with him.

    Okafor is crap, substandard player whom we have paid over the odds for. Ramazani it by far a better player but he does not suit Farke way of play, then why the fck you buy him. He now is with Valencia a for the season, he did the same with the budding CH who is now with Toulouse and there player of the year, the word on that was he was telling other players to pick him up, mark him etc and Cooper did not like it, he told Cooper he was a **** Captain lol. Hence the kraut moved him on.
    Farke is a dead man walking in my eyes, we play the Wendies U19’s and the kraut plays a effing back 4 ??? the man’s a nugget 3-4-3 and hammer them but no he mixes it up with players and nobody is familiar how the other plays???

    Look at Ramazani's career and compare it to Okafor's.

    One is definitely better than the other.

    Certainly agree and weve only seen largi at a lower level, its okafors stage now and let's hope he eclipses largis cameos

    However. Ive liked what ive seen from Largi, so the balls in okafors and the physios court
