Marc Cucurella

Bloom won though? Sold the player for the set valuation, hahah

Nice trophy for a midtable team though

People saying bcos we signed Haaland Txixi can't be criticised.

By not signing a decent Leftback the good work of getting one of the best young talents in the world will soon become undone. We will get found out later in the season when we've got a game every 3 days and we dont have the squad to compete.

People won’t like your comment but I agree. Look at our bench for the community shield. We were only missing Laporte, so imagine when we’re shattered and have 3 or 4 (or more) injuries. We have a squad that can compete for two of the trophies at most whereas we used to have a squad to compete for everything. Still not exactly the worst position to be in but nevertheless we are weaker as a squad with less flexibility and have also sold some reliable players in terms of fitness. All of it will add up throughout the season I’d imagine.

He’s an incredible director? Squeezing out cash from bigger clubs and keep Brighton on the up. No idea why it’s gotta correlate with trophies, haha

Fuck Cucu, I’m on the Sergio Gomez train….

Fake account

Yeah there are a lot of Chelsea fans having fun with this now. A couple of those Barca accounts are just Chelsea fans messing about.

Won the title by one point and nearly buggered it up with 20 mins to go, partly because we couldn't put the ball in the net.

Having a small squad cost us in the FA cup too, when our players were out on their feet.

Not amateurs but the club likes to take too many risks for my liking.

Going into the season with no recognised left back and only two fullbacks is another one.

Could've swore we actually scored the most goals in the league last season

I've said the same thing but why is Jorginho on this list?
But you can add Alexis Sanchez and Fred while you're at it.

Alexis would of played well under Pep. Mourinho got him playing as a borderline wingback, which suffocated him. The 18 months prior was all good quality form. United put him on a ridiculous salary though

The LB situation needed addressing for a long, long time, it's a major weakness in the major games, let's not kid ourselves.

I’m not sure of where I’ve stated otherwise. A top quality LB completes this squad with Cancelo rotating across RB and LB.

I do think you are over exaggerating the problem slightly though. We’ve won the past 2 PLs and almost reached back-to back CL finals with our LB issues.

I think the issue we currently have is a lack of depth at full back rather than quality.

 

[Orangutans4ever]

If Brighton think he is worth £50m and a supposed world class player why aren't they paying him top whack?

Because its not about the money for Cucurella, he wants to play CL and he signed the contract knowing what His wages were going to be 12mths ago. We probably would of made him an improved offer this summer had his head not been turned, who can blame him not wanting CL once you or Chelsea came calling. SHIT ARGUMENT!!!

 

[wolviedinho]

Angelino in at Brighton?

Looks like we will find out soon enough. Chavs stacked in that department. Odd buy.
