He's a tidy player mate. Would rather have Wharton, but we won't have the cash for that. RW and CB have to be the priority, but I still feel we need another CM.
Cant remember seeing him play. I just think that with the players Brighton dont want theyre generally poor and he doesnt really have any pedigree on paper.
Even the players they sell for decent money seem to underperform outside of their system.
If not Wharton then another u21 that can be developed over the season and ready to replace Gana next summer would be my preference. Aside from Gana we only have Onana and Garner and really need one this season and another added next summer.
Im not sure how next summer we bring in:
Replacements at full back: Young/Coleman
Replacment at DM/CM: Gana and a new player
Replacements at Wing/attacking midfield: Danjuma, Harrison, Doucoure, Iwobi, Gray
We'd need 7 players best case. I think we need a couple of permanents now.
Manager might not fancy him. No way Branthwaite should have been at PSV last year, should have been no 4 CB after Mina, Tarkowski and Coady.
No-one is saying he is a world beater, but I'd rather him get games in CM than watch Gana misplace 5 yard passes and the ball bounce off Doucoure's shins.
True about Branthwaite though the loan seems to have done him the world of good.
We seem to have solved CF and LW numbers wise at least for the long term but every other area is either low in quality or simply low in numbers...or both.
He's refusing to return to work and I assume he's still getting paid.
How the hell do you get away with that?
Marry a generous wealthy woman?
Sorry m8 but you're wrong on that one, you could see the ability Arteta had before he ever set foot in the door..
Yes. Both at PSG and Rangers. Quite a well known player in that respect.
