He’s had a horrendous injury record and who knows if he will ever be the same player, but to put him in the same category as Bassette is barmy.Take a minute to read the following....
8 goals in 4 seasons !!!!

He's had 1 good half a season in mens football. He's 25.Difference is Brewster was a key player in the England U17 World Cup winning team. There is absolutely more potential than Simms. Sheff Utd aren’t known for playing the type of football that would suit these types of players, and he did alright whilst on loan at Swansea
there’s obviously a risk that he doesn’t kick on and he’s just run of the mill, but is less of a risk that paying money for the Belgian lad who’s a bit of an unknown quality.
Wait and see, one's done fuck all despite once costing a fortune, the other is a 20 year old with bags of potential.He’s had a horrendous injury record and who knows if he will ever be the same player, but to put him in the same category as Bassette is barmy.
I would be pleasantly surprised if Bassette has scored the same number of Championship goals as Brewster by the time he reaches the same age.Wait and see, one's done fuck all despite once costing a fortune, the other is a 20 year old with bags of potential.
So you'd be "pleasantly suprised" if Bassette scores16 goals in the next 5 yearsI would be pleasantly surprised if Bassette has scored the same number of Championship goals as Brewster by the time he reaches the same age.
Thank fuck for that last bit TellWell…I just thought Rhian Brewster looked good when I saw him last year. I ain’t over thinking it…or in charge of our transfer policy.
That makes no difference, unless it's an elite manager in the PL or it's equivalent abroad.dProbably true but would he ?? 30k crowds - big name manager with huge Chelsea links? I guess granger things have happened and football is indeed a very very strange world
Brewster is not very good and didn't Shef Utd pay £20 million plus for him?The much maligned Ellis Simms has scored twice as many goals as Brewster despite being younger.
Bobby Thomas has outscored Brewster over the last 4 years.
Our own Justin Obikwu scored more goals last year on loan (granted not championship) than Brewster has scored in the last 5 years.
And that's despite surviving a car crash that stopped him mid season.
Seriously, I know it's hot outside, but people need to give their heads a fucking big wobble.
Again, he's never scored 20 in a season in his career.There’s no way we let Wright go for £10m. An international, on a long contract, good age profile and a proven 20 goal striker. We should be busting a gut to retain. But if we can’t it’s got to be 15-20m
Don’t be a pedant … he got 19 goals the season before last and I have no doubt would have got 20 had he stayed fit all last season. The point @Cally Fedora makes is a fair one.Again, he's never scored 20 in a season in his career.
He has potential; massive is pushing it a fair bit.Bassette is 20 remember and has massive potential. Simms is just rubbish and BTA just hasn't been used to his strength.
Maybe after pre season and 1/4 of the season then we'll discuss this.

Wright played 44 league games 23/24 so only missed the 2 league games. Are we saying Simms is also a proven 20 goal a season striker as he also got 19? 19 isn't 20 in anyone's book.
Simms is supposedly a terrible player but the alternatives mooted are Carlton Morris, Keiffer Moore and now Rhian Brewster.The much maligned Ellis Simms has scored twice as many goals as Brewster despite being younger.
Bobby Thomas has outscored Brewster over the last 4 years.
Our own Justin Obikwu scored more goals last year on loan (granted not championship) than Brewster has scored in the last 5 years.

Only played 119 games in 5 years because of constant injuries. He makes Sheaf look an ever present. Got offered a new contract but on reduced terms which he rejected. So looks like he is after another big contract. Can see him going somewhere like Sunderland.Difference is Brewster was a key player in the England U17 World Cup winning team. There is absolutely more potential than Simms. Sheff Utd aren’t known for playing the type of football that would suit these types of players, and he did alright whilst on loan at Swansea

Maybe we've done Simms a disservice, the alternatives mentioned on here are an absolute joke.Simms is supposedly a terrible player but the alternatives mooted are Carlton Morris, Keiffer Moore and now Rhian Brewster.

Your quite right.He’s had a horrendous injury record and who knows if he will ever be the same player, but to put him in the same category as Bassette is barmy.
Mate, if it was up to me we’d re-sign Max and go all out for Luke O’Nein!Thank fuck for that last bit Tell![]()
Bassette will be 21 years old this year. By that point in his career, Brewster had scored 10 Championship goals in one season, and then played a full season in the Premier League. Norm has a lot of catching up to do.Your quite right.
Bassette will end up being a far better player.
I think he could do that, bloody well hope so or the potential equation begins to look rather inbalanced.Bassette will be 21 years old this year. By that point in his career, Brewster had scored 10 Championship goals in one season, and then played a full season in the Premier League. Norm has a lot of catching up to do.
And were was gyokeres at 21?Bassette will be 21 years old this year. By that point in his career, Brewster had scored 10 Championship goals in one season, and then played a full season in the Premier League. Norm has a lot of catching up to do.
Brewster has only scored 20 goals in his whole career. That's not a lot of catching up to do.Bassette will be 21 years old this year. By that point in his career, Brewster had scored 10 Championship goals in one season, and then played a full season in the Premier League. Norm has a lot of catching up to do.
Played 40 games in 1 season in the Prem. The other 79 games were over the other 4 seasons.Only 119 games????
That has no relevance whatsoever.And were was gyokeres at 21?
Don't forget that absolute carthorse Josh Coburn as wellSimms is supposedly a terrible player but the alternatives mooted are Carlton Morris, Keiffer Moore and now Rhian Brewster.
I beg to differ, it shows that different players mature at different ages.That has no relevance whatsoever.
I really don’t see these attributes at all, great is a strong word.You can see Bassette has the attributes to become a great player.
Plays with aggression which is something that certain modern strikers lack, and has such a good work rate when pressing. Improve his finishing and ball control and there's no doubt he will be a prem player in a few years time, and hopefully be with us up there!
I'd say he looks a little like Vardy when he was first developing, but I'll leave that to the experts..
Definitely feel a loan will show us what he's capable of.I really don’t see these attributes at all, great is a strong word.
I think he’s been a poor signing personally so far, although granted needs another season
Bassette has the needed attributes. He just needs to be coached into the best ways of improving. Do you remember when we signed Gyokeres and how many people thought it was a waste of £1m? Even Brighton didn't have a clue they sold someone who would become one of the best strikers in the world so cheaply and they're one of the best clubs at bringing in players and improving them.I really don’t see these attributes at all.
I think he’s been a poor signing personally
Needs to go out on loan for a season before we start talking about him playing and scoring in the PL.I beg to differ, it shows that different players mature at different ages.
Someone above mentioned that Brewster scored plenty at England U17 level, but in his case that hasn't resulted in him being prolific in mens football.
Maybe he was strong and quick for his age?
I'll wager with anyone that Bassette will have scored more goals than Brewster has by the time hes 25
