[Albion] Losing Macalister & Caicedo

[Silverhatch]

Maccalister

Yet another shite game today. Painfffffuly average.

Bollocks. Extraordinary player who’s running on fumes.

Alexis looking tearful at the end which is a bit odd isn’t it ?

He took that defeat hard. Had to be comforted a lot. Don’t worry Alexis, we’ll beat them next season!


What?

Mac Allister was one of our best players today, that pivot to beat the press and perfectly weighted through ball for Ferguson was a thing of beauty. He had a good game.

 

[The Fits]

So that's it then. The end of at least Mac's Albion career. One of our very best.

That through ball was brilliant but he really wasn’t one of our best players today. Poor throughout and unfortunately responsible for both of their goals.

I love him but that was not a good game for him.

Absolutely no protection from the ref which was annoying, especially when Cash cleaned him out but the ref decided he didn’t want Villa down to 10 men.

Both off then

 

[Reddleman]

It’s seems clear they are both going. I think we can cope with the loss of Alexis given what we have in the squad and some recruitment (I.e. a right back so that Gross can stay in midfield) but losing Caicedo is daunting. Serious recruitment needed to replace him.

We need to be really smart in the transfer market, the squad has been stretched to breaking point in the last two months and we are about to lose two of our very best players . A busy and crucial summer awaits.

 

[Harry Wilson's tackle]

Both off then

If the price is right. Perhaps.

And if the manager is that sanguine there will be players* incoming.

I'm not bothered. It's what happens at our level*.

*Better players

If he goes to one if the 'big six' he'll get a lot more protection than he had playing for us.

 

[Cheeky Monkey]

Love RDZ but do wish he'd lay off the 'deserve better, to play at a higher level' etc. I appreciate we're not Real Madrid, but it doesn't really need reiterating that 'We are Brighton, no?'

Ali and Caicedo will soon no longer be 'My pleyer' sadly.

 

[pocketseagull]

RDZ is just being honest, nothing wrong with that.

 

[Greenbag50]

Trust the process; RDZ, TB, PB and DW….. all in hand.
It’s how we roll

 

[KZNSeagull]

They won't be playing at a higher level at 3 of the 'big 6' so that will be really annoying if they go to any of them.

 

[Sheebo]

Yes me too. It’s annoying even if sort of true. He said last week Europa qualification gives them something to think about. Looks like both off then - I really didn’t think Caicedo would go after the new contract and be here another year

 

[pocketseagull]

Thing is, the 'big 6' isn't about league position, it's about expectation, worldwide support etc. We are the sixth best team in England and that's incredible but we're not a 'big club' yet

 

[gripper stebson]

If they are both off, get it done quickly.

 

[dangull]

Nobody is going to turn down 3 times more money for the same job at a historical big club. Sad but true.
