Said it all along, Brighton’s model is a stepping stone club. Nothing wrong with it at all because it’ll get higher calibre players to their club with the promise of being able to leave.

Playing hardball with their prize asset wanting to go to the champions is risky and *might* put off future moves.

Even if Tap In is guessing (likely) then it’s an educated one. No disrespect to Brighton but if you’re Cucurella and City are after you, you want to go and test yourself in that team.

They deserve to set a high price given they took the risk last year but it’s all relative. Still think it’ll get done with us paying more than we wanted and Brighton getting less. The usual stuff.
 
We have other options like Raum and Sosa. Why do we only focus on Cucurella? Brighton knows we sold Zinchenko and now we have 0 left backs, so they think we have to buy left back. They will try to rob us. Selling Zinchenko before getting left back was not good idea. Bad business from the board.
Maybe the deal is already done and what we are witnessing now is theatre, so Brighton can find a replacement. I guess I trust our board and executives for some strange reason.
 
Doesn’t mean much but Cucurella’s agents now follow Man City on instagram. They don’t follow any other premier league club

Cucurella’s main agent - Aleix Pique also following both Man City and CityXtra on Instagram. The only premier league club he follows other than City is Brighton.

It probably doesn’t mean much but it’s something

I’m not sure it’s weird mate. We put a bid in, their owner rejects it (privately), then issues a statement saying there’s been no bids.

Reports then come out that they’ve offered him a new deal. That goes quiet very quickly.

Pep confirms Zinchenko will leave…. Then reports come out of a bid.

Brighton have the power on this deal unless Cucurella pushes for a move, which can be done professionally

I wouldn’t be surprised if a lot of the bid talk in the last 24 hours is simply posturing on the Brighton end. “They offered £30m we laughed at them but Marc’s head was turned so we settled at £45m with add ons…”

I dont think so. All news from reliable sources said there is a 20 m pounds difference between our offer and their demands.

It certainly means something. Seems plausible to think personal terms are all squared away and they’re expecting the clubs to find an agreement.

Yeah that’s what I thought. I think it will happen personally .
 
I joined this board to give those who have never seen Cucu play a guide to the type of player he is. I hope that i have done thaat in a considerate way, if i have offended anyone i appologise that is not my intension or to be snide about your club. At the end of the day i am a BHAFC fan first and then a football fan in general who likes to see and hear from other fans.
So going slightly off topic and just curiouse, othen than Pep who do u regard as either ur best manager or favourite manager.
Mancini, right man at the right time
