He is unbelievable. I will be gutted - genuinely mortified - when he leaves.
Ha, you got a thumbs up cos I thought I was still on the Hodgson thread!
Fantastic for Pascal that he now plays for his country, first capped at age 32. Fully deserved.

He’s a fabulous footballer and, by all accounts, a fantastic human being. He’s genuinely achieved “legend” status with our club.

There was a period of a few minutes when Gilmour got clattered two or three times. I was worried he was either going to get badly injured, or deck someone. Referee had a chance to get on top of it but didn't and it could have turned nasty.

Your support is not that great
For all the "star" players that have been signed and sold on, and all the media hype that has surrounded "Brighton's latest recruitment triumph", it's obvious to most Brighton fans that Pascal Gross was the shrewdest signing of them all, and the one that's probably received the least outside attention.
You can eventually find a decent new goalkeeper, defender, winger or striker to replace an outgoing big name. But there aren't many players available like Pascal, with those skills, that workrate, that professionalism and that flexibility. He's the beating heart of this team.

After providing his nonchalant assist for Buonanotte's goal yesterday, as five other Albion players steam off towards the south-west corner to celebrate with Facundo, Gross just jogs off towards the south-east corner on his lonesome
Why? Did he have family in that corner?
Waiting to join up with Dunky to give it to the Palace fans.

Yeah - Pedro took a pretty excessive body check, after mugging them off with a bit of skill, 10 seconds earlier.
Palace's frustration was plain to see.
Gilmour was targeted, an early booking or two for the hackers, would’ve sorted that out.

Always been quality but has taken it to a completely different level under RDZ.
Will be absolutely irreplaceable the day the unthinkable happens and he waves us goodbye.
We should be looking for two more seasons out of him after this one. I see Gilmour as a player with the potential to one day get to that sort of level, but will need someone robust alongside him

GIlmour has not mastered the pass which opens defences or that creates a goal scoring opportunity

I'll guess that Pascal hadn't mastered that either at Billy's age

And to think he was muted to be going back to Germany at the end of last season.

Fingers crossed this can be a scene of them lifting the Europa Cup.

He's probably our first PL legend.
