Summer transfer rumours (4 Viewers)

It’s obviously a no-brainer for us, I responding to suggestions that the likes of Leeds, Newcastle or BHA would be happy with an unproven GK at that level.

All 3 of those teams are trying to push on, our goal will be survival or in the worst case, ready to piss the Championship again should we fail in the first goal.

Let’s not forget that there was a lot of finger pointing at Rushworth in the 1st few games and in the prem, that scrutiny will be much higher, especially for top had teams.

I’m probably letting my sky blue specs get in the way of common sense but I do think a loan or buy back makes sense for Brighton. Let him prove himself or not with us then pick him up if we go down.

With Rushworth being a BHA academy player, I think the pure FFP profit will be too much to turn down. For a similar reason, we’ll probably cash in on Eccles at some point this summer or next (if we stayed up).

My view is that they’ll cash in, they must’ve been willing to seriously entertain offers in the summer for us to have had a £5.5m offer rejected. When it comes to suitors, we’re the obvious choice because it’s a 0 risk transfer for us, and considerably more for a top half Prem team.

Had we failed to go up, we’d have had 0 chance of keeping him.

Marcel Regula at Zaglebie Lublin would be a decent pick up IMO. Someone who can develop in the background for a year or two. Blows hot and cold but still only 19.

I think best thing for Brighton and Rushworth is for him to go out on loan to a prem team and see how he gets on, I don't think Brighton can take a risk as big as having him as number one without seeing how he performs at that level first.

Was talking to my AC Milan supporting mate at work & he reckons they don't rate Estupinan or Tomori for them - the latter is ex-Chelsea too

I think he’ll make the step up, but it’s still a huge risk for most Prem teams because he’s unproven at that level and that’s probably what it comes down to.

Well it could put us in the driving seat to sign him then at least on loan for next season.
