The Brighton hierarchy probably look at Maupay as their most successful sale

Every season the European super League sounds better and better IMO

£110million for a player who won't win you the league but to try and keep you in the top 4.
Footballs gone.

It's got to be infuriating to see Brighton doing so well mate
I don't even dislike them and it agitates my onions at how good they are at this, I can't imagine what it feels like if you're in a rivalry with them and you see them making this kind of bank

RS might aswell have just bid for Brighton fc, £165m for two, they weren't worth that as a club a few years back.

It's why when people say their model won't last long is complete balls.
They're up £300mill on sales alone. Still scouting with the best in the world for young players - Gonna bring in Kudus for less than £30mill, Dahoud on a free.
You can probably see Gilmour, Buonanotte, Enisco, Ferguson all courting £40+mill in a few years too.
They're set for decades.

As a business model its working perfect for them.
To kick on from last season and climb the league even further will be almost impossible due to having to rebuild season after season as they keep getting there best players taken from them.
I think Brighton have hit their ceiling in terms of both a business and football model.
Same model that worked for Southampton right up until it didn’t.
There’s no doubting their transfer activity in the last few seasons looks impressive but as you say rebuilding every year can be your undoing. Look at how our rebuild when mosh arrived worked out.
Individuals that look good don’t always transfer / gel into a high performing team.
But at least they will be champions of the transfer net spend
Yeah literally the only thing that can wreck it for them now is signing a bucket of DUD's, and I can't see that happening
One or two here or there sure, but they'd have to actually TRY and screw this up now

Not knocking it whatsoever but i think 70% of the league would take what they are doing.
Problem with that is as we are seeing is you will never be able to break the monopoly at the top.
Clubs like Brighton and even ourselves cant build a team anymore we build players for profit or try to.
I see a lot of our fans saying we are getting a young team together if we get them over the line but they wont grow together it wont be allowed to because the sharks will circle and take who they want.
For example, Onana and Chermiti have a very good season this year then one or maybe be both will be gone next summer. Rinse and repeat.

I believed everton fc had sponked £15mill down the grid for Maupay, so it being 15 million euros, converting to only twelve million quid has made my day. Any further mental gymnastics minimising the fee for Maups will be gladly appreciated.

They are one offs mate, im saying it cant be sustained FFP makes sure of that.

All our eggs are in the stadium basket, we have to sell more everton to more and specifically wealthier spectators - that means corporate so that means corp entertainment facilities. I'd like to see season tickets pricing fall to ensure the place is sold out every week. Once BMD gets a reputation for atmosphere, and the pubs and bars move into the area the hope is the success follows. Iconic waterside development.
