[Albion] Fenerbahce are showing an interest in Brighton forward Jurgen Locadia.

- Start date
Whilst I'm definitely not writing him off after such a short time, I'd also say that I haven't seen enough from him to say he's miles better than Hemed and Baldock. I would hope he is given the transfer fee involved but Hemed contributed more in the games he played last season (and has been an important squad member for the last 3 years) and Baldock was an integral part of our team that won promotion - Locadia still has everything to prove...
Hemed and Baldock are very different players anyway. Locadia is much more in the Baldock space for me - running the channels etc. Based on the very limited game time so far he looks faster and stronger than Baldock, so was presumably bought as an upgrade for him - problem is the formation we normally play (or at least did last season) doesn’t include a ‘Baldock’. Suspect we might see some changes in how we line up next season.

Flight from Gatters is about £300 – probably the cheaper option.

Like many haven't seen much of him however from his performances at Selhurst and Anfield I can't see him as a lone striker in the Murray role. To get him in the starting XI we would need to change our style of play which I really can't see CH doing anytime soon.
I would seriously think of moving him on.
I'd be more than happy to be proved wrong but I just can't see him being anymore than a bit part player in the squad.

Locadia has clapped the fans though [emoji6][emoji2]

That's good enough for me.
If Spence "Ryan's too small: get rid" doesn't rate him, he'll be a superstar.

Just for clarification Bwian is that top marks for not trying?

He wasn't clapping the fans though, he was rehearsing a rhythm for one of his new songs because he only cares about his music not about football. How. Dare. He.

Wasnt it a guy called Holsgrove that Horton signed at Gillingham,never played and we sold him on for a profit......so as they say "If the price is right " !!
he played a pre season friendly at Lewes. I think he had been released by Stoke (?) and Horton knew he had a resale value so snapped him up quickly. Think we got about £100k - a master stroke

He did pop up to provide one of the best assists of the season though.

If someone offered twice what we paid, in cash, now... then I'd do the deal. Close to the start of the season or just "recoup" what we paid then it would be stupid... any replacememt would need time to bed in (which I hope JL has now had) and that's assuming we dound someone.
But business is business and turning a quick profit may only be worthwhile if we have time to get a replacement in and ready.
