Just signed Ansu Fati on season long loan from Barcelona.

Seems a marquee kind of coup for them, a big sign of progression.

Not sure why he's after falling out of favour at Barca, he was touted as the next messi not long ago. It will be interesting to see how he does.

Been injured, 2 major knee ops. Featured in 50 odd games last 2 years only as sub. We paying 75% of his wage working out at £5.5m over the season. Helps Barca get players in, strenghens us with Enciso out until new year.

Looking forward to it. Never been in European action, nice to have established teams rather than unknown ones. Tall ask to get out the group, but thats what its all about. Just happy as f£=k to be in it, may never happen again. Proud as punch for us.

Good luck to u in CL. not a bad group for you lot.

Enjoy it! You certainly deserve to be there. It will be a learning curve for you, especially on how to manage the squad with the extra games but should give you a good grounding for future campaigns. Good luck!

Best of luck, Charlie.

It will be great to test yourselves against some of the biggest names in the competition.

It’s also fantastic to see new sets of supporters at your ground.
 
To think Ajax when they were winning three on the bounce in Europe, Brighton were like third tier.

I bet it didn't even pass their minds that in 50 years time they would be playing them home and away in European competition.

Then there is Marseille, when they won it in 1992, Brighton were like fourth tier.

AEK were once regulars on Europe's top table also.

I think you will finish third, drop into the Conference League and win it handsomely. It would be even more of an achievement though to get out of that group and go to the quarters at least though.

Most of all, enjoy it.
 
Cheers all for wishing BHAFC luck in the Europa league. If we can get out the league that will be amazing.

26 years ago, 1 goal away from being out the league, to new stadium, Premier league football and now planning European football trips. I will enjoy it whilst i can, maybe getting to win a domestic cup aswell.
