Marc Cucurella

Any movement anyone ?

I thought there was but just wind

Any movement anyone ?

Shouldn’t be too long mate. I had a jerk chicken bowl with rice and beans at Tatton Food Fest earlier this afternoon. I can hear the gurgling.

He's a long way of the best option.

Regardless, he's an excellent footballer...

Ake was signed imo because Laporte had missed almost a season through injury and we were hedging against him not making a full recovery or breaking down again

And because he is a lefty. Not many around.

I used to be a fan of Potter but not after your team tried to kick us off the pitch (think it was before the CL final) and he behaved like a prick on the sidelines. He apologised afterwards but I don't think the City hierarchy were impressed.
However the way your side demolished the Rags last season playing fast-flowing possession football was hugely impresssive..even against such weak opposition..so the jury is still out on Potter long-term. I also believe Brighton is one of the best-run clubs in English football on and off the pitch so Potter must take some credit for that along with Bloom.

With regards to Potter and Bloom, yes 90% of the footballing world and all the media were against sacking Houghton, some even questioning we were racist for doing it. Some even said that Brighron should not be in the premier league and how dare we dream of progressing every year. We should have stayed with Houghton and fight relegation every year playing bland football with a tactic of dont concede a goal.

Not for nothing, but I think this is a nonsensical story.

I’m sure they’re having to offer fresh terms. You can’t refuse a significant offer and also tell the player you won’t pay them more. It’s why this always happens.

Paul Barber, CEO at Brighton just said on sky sports news, the club has to be realistic about Cucurella transfer

Was at the game didnt see us kicking you but thats just my opinion, dont know if was the same game where Leporte tried to go through a Brighton player when he got injured, i think if he wasnt injured he would have had a red card.
Nice to see Potter giving it some on the sidelines, hes normally to passive.
