    100%. Yamal is 100 games deep at 18. He’s won leagues and played CL and a Euros.

    Is he inexperienced? Is he ****.

    Obviously a slightly premium example like <laugh>

    Too right.

    And if you spend £30million and a player does a good season in PL the markups can be wild.

    30 can become 70, 80 more.

    The right investment now can change that landscape. That’s how you ‘do a Brighton’ and establish.

    Aye, I was being slightly facetious in my Browne comment but when he signed I wasn't as delighted as others as I was concerned that he would limit game time for Rigg, Bellingham and Neil, despite not being as good a player, all in the name of balance and experience. As it is, that didn't transpire and he still played a huge part in what we achieved.

    They'll expect to recoup £100m of that on Delap, Hutchinson and O'Shea won't they?

    I'm praying we stay well away from the championship. Horrible value when you see it like this.

    Well Delap has a £30m release clause and as long as I’ve got a hole in my arse they aren’t getting £70m for the others. I’d be surprised if they even got what they paid for Hutchinson he’s not really had a great season.

    Defo, as I said the other day loads of players who are all about as good as each battling for the same positions.. only to then sign a loanee who’s better than them all <doh>

    Szmodics for that much is the one that stands out for me. One decent season. Not even guaranteed to get you goals in the championship

    I rate Hutchinson mind, but I rate him at £15-20 tops.

    They’d lose money on him.

    Aye, my maths is clearly off there. The Ipswich fans seem to broadly think that there will be enough interest in Hutchinson to trigger his release clause (apparently £40m) and O'Shea has by all accounts had a very good season in a poor side but you're right, it gets no where near £100m.

    Doubt they’ll break even
    Absolutely got Mundle for a fraction of the fee for Philogene. Much better value in foreign markets.

    Never even heard of him until he hit that banger of a goal which has now won goal of the season in the Bundesliga. 21 year old. Proper defender this lad. Bring him in.

    Love our equaliser, like you say, key way for us to get up the pitch...

    6. Jobe and Watson (had replaced Neil in a reshuffle) intercepted the ball and brought in

    8. Lee Fee. Perfectly weighted pass to
    8. Roberts. What a strange position he had taken up, but he had just replaced Rigg. One of the best defence splitting passes to
    10. The God that is Mayenda

    I've watched Danny and Frankie full match several times, and they mention the importance of pushing Lee Fee forward to utilise his range of passing. Roberts positioning was unreal and produced one of the best defence splitting passes I've seen in a long time.

    Was Roberts playing an 8. or as a 10. in the goal? I'm not sure how to call it.

    Any chance we could sign Dortmund's Jobe backup? Ardon Jashari I think? Never actually seen him but the clips do make him look a bit lightweight but very good.
