He doesn't want to play for us and hasn't since he returned from the World Cup. I don't see that changing. Based on stats the £25million is low but the guy is 28 and is not going to get any better. Belgium will probably now be looking elsewhere. He is inconsistent in the extreme and one could say that his earlier performances this season were with the WC and a move in mind. Time has moved on.

Perhaps there should be some major add ons to the price so that we gain if indeed he does continue to assist and hit the net.

Often didn't seem to want to play for us before the World Cup. Who needs a sulky fucker that blows hot and cold taking up a squad space?

See ya :wave:

So apparently we've set an asking price of £25m for Tross.

Seems fair enough to me. Think all parties would consider that fair, rather than the laughable supposed £12m verbal offer from Spurs.

Although if it does happen - I think Trossard will end up regretting the move, as he'll probably find himself on the bench more often than not.

Still hope he apologises and stays with us. He's been such a great player for us.
Wheres the source for this?

More twitter nonsense.

Came from a talksport guy didnt it, so probably absolute tosh.

Constant source of amusement when people quote prices set by Brighton for their players. Even more so when Brighton fans, posters here, quote these figures.

It is known, spoken from the horses mouth, we do not release the figures we value our players at, why the hell would we?

I know he only has a year and a half left on his contract, but that still seems a bit cheap.

I’m still hoping he changes his mind and comes back into the fold (perhaps even with a bit more consistency) but I fear he’s gone.

I hate how this is ending, but I still have a lot of love for how he’s played for us on his good days.

Don't believe everything you read in the papers, or on twitter, Facebook or anywhere else.
If it were on the Club's website it would be credible, but otherwise................

Yes today I've read we have set the price for Trossard, Caicedo, Mac Alister and that Chelsea are interested in signing Colwell.

I’m not holding out any hope he’ll be back, he’s publicly asked to leave ... via his agent ... he wants out and doesn’t like Roberto’s methods or seemingly his personality... it’s a great shame, mostly because this will drive his sale value down.

He’s gone though, almost certainly gone... although stranger things have happened I guess.

I'm the same, but the difference is IF he (or any other player or manager) wants to leave, I'm more than happy to wave him on his way. No hate or animosity like we've seen recently – once they've made their mind up, get the best money for them then off they go. We'll carry on with making BRIGHTON better, as opposed to how they might make another team better.

Occasionally they might tarnish their 'reputation' by throwing their toys out of the pram or talk about it being 'a step up' when they get to their new club, but I honestly don't see the point in holding grudges or any negativity towards them.

Recent games have proven that there is life after Leo, so what's the point in hankering over what could have been. Same with Potter and co – and look how that's turned out (so far)!

It's that easy, yet so many find it so difficult.

It's not that they find it difficult – they just don't want to. People on here have told me that they like to hold grudges, which is fine – each to their own and all that. Personally I can't see the point and needless anger/stress/brain space!

I agree. But can I still boo any returning left backs? That is always fun I find.
