[Albion] Alexis Mac Allister - *** New Contract Until 2025 ***

[Bakero]

How much more flair can it get?

Young
Beard
Number 10 shirt
Scottish-Argentinian hybrid
Skilful Attacking midfielder
Played for Boca Juniors

Certainly a lot of flair about him but a very unflair name.

It is probably worth repeating that when Mac Allister got his permit back in January, his father stated that it was only good for six months and there was no guarantee that a new permit would be granted:-

Player’s father confirms offer from Brighton, says work permit could be an issue

Something interesting claimed by Carlos is that Mac Allister only has a work permit for the next six months, and it’s not guaranteed he’ll be in the same position at the start of next season.

“Today he does not have a community (EU) passport and we don’t know if the permit will be granted after June. Why? Because today, the FA gives it to him for having played most of the games of the last tournament, because he started semifinals of Copa Libertadores, because he was called up to the national team and because Brighton are willing to grant him a special contract that is required. We don’t know if all these conditions are going to happen in June. That’s the only issue that makes noise today.”

It had previously been reported the player had obtained an EU passport.

Hopefully due to Coronavirus they will be more lenient.

So only good for 6 months. I would guess we are well on route to month 7 having already disproved the idea that it would only be good up until June

Hopefully he has played enough times to continue to qualify.

I'm sure he'll be expected to run the show on Thursday.

 

[The Optimist]

He played in some of the friendlies, didn't he?

There's just no way of knowing unless club's come out and say.

Four players/staff are currently in isolation from the last round of tests - https://www.bbc.co.uk/sport/football/54156086

Not sure if the four includes Laporte and Mahrez or not - https://www.skysports.com/football/...hester-city-duo-test-positive-for-coronavirus

Maybe he has been bollocked for breaking the bubble with his mate?

That was my first suspicion!

 

[Springal]

A few 'rubbished' my suggestion, but I do think the club would have been pissed off being in a fairly secure bubble - that Alex Mac invited his mate round who flew over from Germany to spend some time in his flat

Which was later found on social media ... because ... well .. he put it on social media

How was it rubbished?

He’s bang to rights, he is in a bubble with our squad and our squad only and has broken it. I assume he will have had to isolate due to this (similar to Foden and Greenwood) for a period of time.

I can’t recall the timeline and whether this sits with his appearances at our friendlies though?

Can't be arsed to find it - but a few posters didn't think the club would have any issue in it, as it was no different to catching up with anyone, they get tested regularly etc.

 

[Cozzy]

I would have thought it a little obvious ..... new pairing of Mac & Gykes for the pompey EFL cup game

Suppose he may have asked before and got approval before hand from the club (assuming the German bubbles are similar) so maybe I am doing him a disservice?

Could be that the indentation was to play the same formation against Portsmouth with him playing in the AL role, which based on last night is more important now.

I would like to see him behind a front two centrally as recently he had been used on the left
