He really needs to give his wardrobe a wobble - or am I just getting old and hate the retro 70s look - it’s so ugggh

I was there in the 70s - and enjoyed the clothes I wore - but I would never have dreamed of going out in my pyjamas!

I hate to say it, but given his position, wardrobe and (apparent) temperament, he's shaping up to be our Anthony Gordon...

We've already had our Yves Bissouma and......err......our Aaron Connolly for hilarious wardrobe content!

So good to see our young, overseas players recognising the 1974 Eurovision anniversary and joining in the celebrations by dressing up in period clothing.

A new take on the old double denim! What’s not to like?

If that is his Doris, he is punching!

I am old and I am bloody loving the trousers :smile:

Massive improvement on fat fuckers wearing skin tight jeans

Double denim with an oversized jacket not so much

If he wasn't a future multi millionaire, I doubt the pretty young lady would be walking with the fella in a denim jester suit and a series 1 Blackadder barnet.

I don’t possess the IT skills to do it but these days you could easily put together a PL team if the most ‘fashionable’ players Shirley- I think Ben White is nailed on for beachwear - Tom Davies would be up for selection too as well as Biss, Barco etc

Rumour that he's going out on loan next season. Sounds unlikely to me. I'd hope he'd train and get his chances.

brighton_tom · Apr 12, 2024

Seems a happy chap in the latest training video, lots of laughing, smiling, and joking around with other players.

Which he has just reposted on his own Instagram with more smiley laughing face emojis. Seems to be doing alright

Barco looks the business in that gear. Superb look

Greg Bobkin · Apr 12, 2024

Who cares what he looks like or what he wears? Surely we're beyond all that nonsense in this day and age?

You’d think so but have you seen some of the posts about Ben White?

Yep. Pretty pathetic, IMO.

I hope he plays tomorrow.

I thought Barco played an impressive starting debut tonight. He was energetic and committed to driving the game forward even when he was playing LB - some forgivable but costly mistakes one of which was complicit in us conceding but when you have the top team in the world’s forwards bearing down in you, it is a lot to ask of a 19 year old kid especially in a system that is playing out from the back in a high risk strategy - not surprising he panicked.

Some very neat footwork and he got involved wherever he could which I love about him. He still has trouble taking on defenders when he moved into a CMF role but he won a few corners and played some great balls in.

Very impressive he managed 95 mins, it took Gilmore and Facu months before they managed that so his condition seems good but he looked noticeably tired by 80 mins. He does remind me of Facu - lots of raw talent and both love to play across a wide area of the pitch - and an air of smash and grab about them both

I think he will be one of our star players by this time next season.

Got something to say or just want fewer pesky ads? Join us... 😊
