2016 under Pardew was a shocker, not 2017. He's long gone. Still doubt it was anywhere near as close to the worst in Europe. Maybe you will beat it this season? Just a thought...
Brighton, the team that the late Brian Clough described as a non footballing town and where you go for a Tory Party conference.
A club that has Clappers and puts the words up on the screen as most supporters don't know the lines to the songs.
A club that often couldn't sell out the 6000...
We won some games but we lost some games...shock horror.
You're right about 2016, it was a shocker but that was down to the dad dancer Pardew, he's now long gone, sorry.
You need to wake up and smell the coffee my friend. Welcome to the Premier League, your days of winning every week are long...
Sorry, did I dream the wins vs Chelsea, Liverpool and Arsenal?
Don't think Palace fans fear Brighton. We can't wait for November if I'm honest.
I think you will stay up though but could easily be wrong, it will be close.
Fair point about Reidewald but I'm going on who he has played for, the number of games he's played and the many articles I have read up on him, he has a 92% pass success rate for example which is very good.
Cabaye honestly was very good last year most of the time, you only have to look on the...
Reidewald has played for a big side in Ajax 92 times and is capped at Dutch level, are you honestly suggesting Dunk or Duffy are better??
Cabaye was quality most of last season so not sure what you're on about??
Fosu-Mensah is highly regarded at MU and Mourinho rates him as a huge prospect...
I don't think that's true at all.
In goal, Ryan edges Hennessey in my opinion but then look at the rest of your squad and ours. Fosu-Mensah, who will be signing in the next few day, is easily the best full back out of the 2 squads, Reidewald is the best central defender, Cabaye the best...
I think you're being harsh on our players. None of them are "sulky over paid lumps." Under Pardew we underperformed due to his dire tactics. Once Allardyce came in, (after a slow start) the players responded and pulled off some great results against some of the best sides in the division.
The...
We spent £40 million in January so I doubt we will be doing that again but I would except another £20-£25 million to be spent this window on a centre back and a back up striker. There is still 3 weeks to go till the window shuts.
Nothing wrong with the loan signings of Loftus-Cheek and Fosu-Mensah, both very talented players. You've just loaned Brown from Chelsea so I don't really understand your criticism?
You're making some good signings IMO (today's signing being a real stand out) and I now think you will stay up but I would back us at the moment looking at both squads. Brighton 16th, Palace 12th.
