Brighton Thread - 2023/24 | De Zerbi is leaving (pg 6)

[Vienna_70]

Didn't see that announcement coming.

It’s a surprise to me, too.

 

[kaz7]

Strange move ,thought he might bide his time and see what happens when pep leaves , hope he doesnt go to the rags

 

[mexico1970]

German rags or rags?

 

[OntarioBlue]

That’s a bit of a shocker. Bayern Munch perhaps ? Or Juventus ?

What about a straight swap. Allegri to Brighton with deZerbi going to Juve.

 

[The Light Was Yellow Sir]

German rags or rags?

Probably but could be Juventus?

 

[Mr Kobayashi]

Genuinely didn't see that coming, I know he's been linked away but thought he'd build something at Brighton.

Difficult to build something and sustain a challenge for a cup or Europa league when they are designed to always be a selling club.

Compare them to West Ham who pretty much reinvested all of the money from Rice on players for now vs Brighton who are more likely to buy projects.

I do. Yet another completely different style of manager with exactly the wrong players for his way of playing. Yet another car crash waiting to happen..

 

[Pell]

If he went to the rags, he'll be known on here as the Aldi Ancelotti.

 

[chesterbells]

Is Brailsford gonna be on the pitch after the game tomorrow with a contract in his hand?

 

[Kinkybyname]

... he has been dropping hints for some time that he and the owners are not on the same page when it comes to thoughts about strengthening the squad, so not totally surprised
