@Albion_Nav @BrightonBuzzz If jp signs it'll be 4 or 5 years. Otherwise he'll be gone. Hope they sign mitoma long term

@BrightonBuzzz I'd bet that Mitoma is more likely to stick around the JP is. I'll say: 2-year extension for Mitoma, 1-year for JP. Mitoma will head off and play elsewhere for a season or two (he'll be at least 31), and then go back to Japan to play a season before transitioning to coaching.

🚨 Brighton have started negotiations over NEW deals for Mitoma and Van Hecke... ✍️🤝 🗣️ Fabian Hurzeler states: “They know Brighton gave them the opportunity to develop, an opportunity to play on the highest level in the best league in the world and therefore let's see what happens.” [via @Brian__Owen] #BHAFC

@Fall3nV09 I don't think bloom wants his teams to work like that. He wants them to be independent of each other. If a deal benefits both then I'm sure it would be easier to get done. But I don't think bloom would want his other clubs to be seen as feeder clubs to us

#BHAFC Our sister team is top of the league in the Belgian Pro League. Please tell me why Tony Bloom did not go to loan Facundo, Watson, and Coppola to them. The perfect development team, but we never see club exchanges like Chelsea and Strasbourg.

@michaelbhafc02 @JL90852 So our player of the season isn't even the best fullback at the club? Hmm not sure about that one

@Beardlar @JL90852 Precisely

Wieffer won the ball back more times than anyone else on the pitch. Like he does almost every game.

@michaelbhafc02 @JL90852 Erm... you know ferdi is a fullback right?

@JL90852 He's our best fullback every fucking week and people will still slate him so much

@ryanadsett Mistreated? He clearly isn't at the level we all hoped he would be at but he ruined it himself by going to chelsea. Now he can't even get in the leeds team for an fa cup game against lower league opposition. What's to feel sorry for?

What a mess. Feel for some of the players we’ve mistreated recently

@BrightonBuzzz @caughtoffside Constantly injured. Sounds perfect for us

🚨 Liam Delap is expected to leave Chelsea this summer after a debut campaign that included injuries, ill-discipline, and three goals. Brighton are amongst the leading suitors for his next club. Would you be happy with Delap up top? 🤔 [via @caughtoffside] #BHAFC

@Brightonian_ Easiest story they could do. All they needed to do was see who we were after when de zerbi went. It wasn't that long ago so we must be after them again

Bewilders again why everyone immediately, unquestionably accepts these kind of low tier stories as fact. Not even an ounce of doubt. It’s said by footy insider, it must be true I guess.

@minute_tweets @BHA_Aqua Its a game of football ffs. Get over yourself

@BHA_Aqua At what stage is it acceptable to call him the "N***" word? The one we don't call Germans anymore

unspeakable fuckinf things i want to happen to this “manager”, what a braindead idiot not making subs. Blame on the defenders and keeper too

@BrightonBubble Kjetil Knutsen. We'll never go down the traditional route of hiring a proven manager. But what hes done with that bodo team is miraculous

Here’s a question… who would you want to replace Hürzeler?

@Brightonian_ Majority of the fans have now turned. I think he'll go at the end of the season still not right now. That performance was unacceptable. Need a big change too many players have gone backwards

We didn’t show up. Such a disappointing, poor performance.

@nocontextfm1 @goodbadftblpod Everyone has 1 annoying arsenal fans in their life

@goodbadftblpod As a neutral I want Man City to win it, for the sole reason that I know one really annoying Arsenal fan

Neutrals... which team do you WANT to win the Premier League this season?! 👀

@Brightonian_ A lot of Southamptons success was youth academy products with a couple of really good signings. None of our big sales have come from the academy cos we don't rely on it just hope we can develop young players with a lot if potential

I still don’t get the comparison to Southampton. 1) they weren’t pioneering data analytics, 2) they had a change of ownership, and 3) they didn’t have Tony Bloom.

@JMFozzy1995 @wearebrighton Or when baleba comes over and says get me off maybe that says why a change was made. 2 individual errors are why we lost that game. Says it all🤪

@Beardlar @wearebrighton Cos just maybe when you need a 2nd goal you should bring on your striker not wait until the 88th min.., the fact Milner came on before the attackers says it all

Fulham free kick was scored from an area of the pitch Baleba had been controlling. If Baleba had to go off, Hinshelwood should have come on for Milner Everton goal came in an additional minute added because Milner needlessly came on with 96 played You can't spin this one on behalf of Paul Barber, Andy #BHAFC

@Brightonian_ We always seem to have our worst periods around the time the weather turns crap. We tend to get better when the weather improves. Our players just hate winter

Agree For any frustrations we all have, and it’s been a tough moment, we’ve still got a lot to play for. Cup, granted a difficult tie And with how this league is, consecutive wins will have us right up there in the table. And let’s not forget FH guided us to 6 wins in a row last season. I’m deflated. We all are. But season is not over yet. Lots to play for.

@GroBmisconduct2 No recency bias at all. Ferdi has been our best player and it hasn't been particularly close

Minteh should be our player of the season so far, unfortunately recency bias always happens and it becomes player of the last 2 months rather than player of the season

@Brightonian_ The club do get a bit precious at times when there's unrest amongst some fans. Wish they'd ignore it sometimes

However I would say the quotes in that article, from the “source” are unnecessarily prickly…. This is only football after all. Not life changing, but it is a lifelong passion, especially for many of us on here. It’s normal for all these opinions in football. Some fans aren’t going to agree with you, some are. You get all extremes. That’s how it is. Even if I happen to partly agree with them, I don’t think the club, or a source at the club, expressing public irritation at fans opinions helps matters here #BHAFC

@MightyDanovski @Brightonian_ Professional gamblers don't take massive stupid risks. How do you think they get to be professional gamblers

@Brightonian_ Bloom is a professional gambler. If he wants to take a punt on us getting into Europe he’d have to pull the trigger now. Because as it stands we have no chance with that child in charge.

There is no chance Bloom sacks him mid season. Amazed people even think this option is on the table. Summer different question. Depending how things go.

@BHA_Aqua How can you say it has been laughable when we've made a brilliant signing?

@Beardlar groß was great but I feel we need SOMEONE else. People will lose their heads if we struggle and it will come down to other clubs showing a million times more ambition than us

this transfer window has been laughably bad. I understand we don’t typically spend in jan but with every club around us acquiring players it seems difficult to see us competing if our main target is a league 2 19 y/o striker.
