Yes agree. Look, he was poor yesterday. The worst i've seen him. But I remain convinced he'll be a top striker. Giving him up and binning of to Coventry didn't work with Gyokeres and Evan has done miles more than he had at that age. He needs games, he needs to learn his trade, he needs the...

The way I see it, it might not be that soon. But he's going to be a quality PL striker for the next decade, let's get him in and get through these growing pains. Let's let the lad know he has our absolute support.

My message to RDZ, (if he would listen to a humble pleb such as myself) on Evan Ferguson would be "persevere, persevere, persevere". I would also humbly offer this advice to my fellow Brighton fans.

That's OK, we're quite strong in defence :)

Yes. I think the figures quoted above represent his value to us. If anyone wants to meet that valuation, ok let's talk. If not, ah well

Excellent. That will be £325m thank you Todd

How many strikers do you keep around though? Enciso and Ferguson both getting injured in the first 4 games is quite unlucky, and there's no confirmation of anything serious with Evan. Welbeck and Joao Pedro can lead the line. We also know RDZ likes Lallana in that sort of position, so...

RDZ said he wanted to compete for 4 trophies and I believe him. It won’t be like the days under Potter where he basically used to throw the game by fielding youth players. I don’t think we’ll field a single player from the u23 team. I’m expecting to see players like Adingra, Dahoud, Lamptey...

We don't need 150m. We do need Evan Ferguson. Not for sale to any club at any price.

I don't think we'd accept £200m. Whatever we're offered now, we'd get more later. And also. The purpose of running a football club isn't just to make money.

If you get a golden generation, enjoy it!

Yes. Welbeck still not made double figures in a season in 15 years as a pro. I'm not knocking him, as he offers a lot, but strikers are judged on goals. And the fella out of the team is going to score a lot more than the fella in the team. And in terms of the other stuff, the hold up play...

Yet, we still have at least 6 players who will play week in, week out when fit. Last season, there was no question over the places of Dunk, Estupinan, Caicedo, MacAllister, March, Gross and after RDZ came in, Mitoma. Yes we have players who aren't automatic selections and will be rotated...

I completely get the point about managing minutes and not heaping expectations on an 18 year old. But there are big pressures working in the other direction, Welbeck is decent, but not a natural goalscorer. The difference between Welbeck up top and Ferguson up top, is probably about 12 goals...

He has a year and a half. 14 is plausible, but still bloody tough. Robbie and Michael I think will be safe though

Giggs, of course played a huge number of career games. Owen is alongside Greaves in English football in the "what kind of career could they have had if they had stayed fit" debate. The lesson is surely, you might get away with it, you might not. But our club are good at resisting short term...

How to they compare with Leeds?

Thanks for posting. Quite a few of those did well also of course! Owen. What a start to a career! Was Connolly too old when he scored to make that list?

It reflects badly on the ROI forward players, but credit to big Shane for this. To get 6 international goals at centre back is something not loads of people do

Is there any TV coverage of Evan's match tonight?
