Molotov Posted January 3, 2023 Share Posted January 3, 2023 Hey @Satoshi What is the reason Billy is not in the starting 11 tonight if he is so highly rated by his coach at Brighton? 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gordon EF Posted January 3, 2023 Share Posted January 3, 2023 18 year old Evan Ferguson scores on his second sub appearence for Brighton, gets his first start tonight and has scored again. I'm sure he'll be stright out the side again only to get a handful of sub appearences over the next few months all as part of the famous Brighton bedding in process. As someone who knows more about football, player development, and Brighton's world-famous youth development process, I'm obviously correct about this. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Barry Ferguson's Hat Posted January 4, 2023 Share Posted January 4, 2023 It's obvious that we're lagging behind the ROI in terms of player development atm. I imagine they'll be back to dominating us over the next few years. -1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Outside of Collins, Bazunu, and Ferguson, which young Irish players look particularly promising right now? 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'd absoltely take the three Irish players mentioned for Scotland right now but we've got more young players they'd take from us than the other way around right now. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lex Posted January 5, 2023 Share Posted January 5, 2023 I'm surprised he's not back at Chelsea, what with the buy back in place and the window reopening. I thought that would be Potter's first act of business in January. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I was always under the impression Ireland let’s other nations develop its players It’s not as if they’re playing in Ireland, they’re getting poached very early by English clubs and being developed 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

bleedingums Posted January 6, 2023 Share Posted January 6, 2023 They say that you make your own luck, however: He starts playing for Chelsea, getting man of the match each time and then covid comes along. Season restarts, he plays a couple of games then gets a long term injury. Back in time to play for Scotland in the euros, gets MoM against England but then can’t play against Croatia because he gets covid. Decides he needs more playing time so gets that move to Norwich, who were absolutely shite. Forces a move from Chelsea because he’s not in Tuchel’s plans, goes to Brighton where the manager publicly rates him only for Tuchel to get sacked and that manager, Potter, to bugger off to Chelsea a few days later! The final irony being that as of right now, Brighton’s midfield is probably stronger than Chelsea’s and he’d possibly have more chance starting for them at the moment….! 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Binos Posted January 6, 2023 Share Posted January 6, 2023 (edited) Talk of Caicedo moving Maybe not till summer Edited January 6, 2023 by Binos 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
2426255 Posted January 7, 2023 Share Posted January 7, 2023 (edited) I was hopeful Gilmour would've got some game time in the FA Cup today but unfortunately he didn't. Brighton have two games left before the January window closes - maybe a loan until the end of the season with a recall option wouldn't be the worst thing to happen. I think Rangers woukd be a reasonable option just short term as their fans already like him, he knows the club well and the Rangers midfield isn't particularly strong especially with Steve Davis out until the end of the season but doesn't seem likely given that Michael Beale isn't looking to take on loan players.

Theroadlesstravelled Posted January 7, 2023 Share Posted January 7, 2023 He’d be better off in the English Championship than Scotland. If he goes to Rangers then he’ll be there for the rest of his career. He’s completely giving up playing at a high level. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
aberdeen1970 Posted January 7, 2023 Share Posted January 7, 2023 He's dropping way down the pecking order. Needs to get himself out on loan for the rest of the season. Preferably not to Ibrox though. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
