Read The psychology of money by Morgan Housel. Dollar cost average as much as you can into the s&p 500, forget about it. Wait and enjoy in later life.

Fair post, similar to Trossard in a lot of ways, the difference being Joao would be a much bigger price tags. Would clubs be willing to splash out 60 odd million on a squad player?

Agreed. All qualities difficult to quantify in modern data analysis.

I’d be interested to see how Pedro would fit into a side where he’s not the main man. He’s not going to walk into one of Europe’s top clubs and be technically superior to those around him, so he’ll need to do the less glamorous work of tracking back and not pretend he is injured until we regain...

Jacks an interesting one. I rate him highly, he’s a top talent and fits our style perfectly. But I struggle to picture him playing elsewhere. Players like Trossard, Mitoma, or Caicedo etc all have standout traits that make them easy to scout. Jack’s more subtle. He doesn’t jump off the page in...

Completely agree. I was thinking this yesterday but didn’t quite have the bollocks to make the shout 😂😂. A “Raumdeuter” for those FM players amongst us.

Agree with a lot of what’s been said. And without sounding too biased, it really does feel like we went about it the right way. Started off, let’s be honest, pretty negative. But gradually, we introduced a more attractive style of play. It doesn’t always work, I remember Stoke trying to move...

How would you feel about having Mats as our first-choice right-back going into next season, with Veltman pushing for a spot? I’ve got to admit, I went from: “Why the F*ck is Weiffer starting at full-back and Hinch in midfield, when Hinch has played right-back all season?” to: “Have we been...

Fair comment.

Quickly become my favourite player. Absolutely love him. The modern day James Milner or Gary Hart and I mean that in the most complementary way.

And I genuinely think RDZ would’ve found those 5 points. Just my opinion and not a dig at Fab, i just believe Roberto would’ve got a bit more out of what I see as a very good squad.

This isn’t Albion-related, but I know plenty of us just enjoy watching football in general I’m fascinated to see how the promoted sides approach it next season. In recent years, most have come up and gone straight back down. For the sake of the Championship’s reputation, I’d like to think the...

I’ve had my reservations about Fab for most of the season. There’ve been highs and lows, but it’s the mental decisions he makes at times that leave me scratching my head, moments where it’s hard to understand what he’s thinking or trying to achieve. That said, credit where it’s due for a first...

It does feel that way. There’s clearly a new wave of football supporters emerging, and while change is inevitable, I can’t help but feel that we’re losing something vital in the process. That raw emotion and edge that made football so compelling in the first place. Reading through this thread...

can’t stand this kind of post. it’s creeping more and more into the modern game. Things like “Well done Palace, even though we hate you” or “Your city’s blue just like Brighton” when we’re away at City… what are we doing? The English game was built on tribalism, intensity, and a bit of needle...

Israel received the highest public vote in Eurovision history

As frustrated as I am with how things are going, I don’t think I could ever truly “give up” on the season. Do I honestly believe we’ll make Europe? No. But with the way the European spots are being handed out this year, a decent run (which, to be fair, I’m not sure we’re capable of) could just...

We all know Tony isn’t the type to make knee-jerk decisions, but I do wonder if being in the crowd yesterday might have given him something to think about. The discontent was pretty clear, and it must have been difficult to ignore.

I’m on the more negative end of the spectrum when it comes to how I’m feeling about the team right now. That said, What exactly was the reasoning behind clapping the players and manager off the pitch yesterday? It seemed like a pretty even split between those applauding and booing. After...

Sometimes I catch myself complaining about our manager, the performances, the results… Then I stop and think: “Hang on, look how far we’ve come. A few years ago, we’d have killed for this kind of season.” It leaves me questioning myself. Am I being entitled? A bit bratty, even? Or is it fair...
