Player Watch Player Watch: Yves Bissouma

[eddiev14]

He’s so good. Would love us to sign him

 

[chrisd2k]

I have to say although I always thought he was a good player I thought he'd cost too much money.

However that performance, well just wow and Conte must have been impressed.

Problem is others will be circling him. Let's just hope working with Conte is a big pull for him.

Of course IF we are interested. Him and Bentancur... That's the sort of midfield that can go toento toe with any

 

[Huddlebone]

We already have 3 soon 4 Box to box midfielders, if Conte wants to play a 3 in the mid I would rather see us upgrade the "passer" (winks) and go all-in for Ruben Neves who has a world-beater season right now, could be the best midfielder in PL right now IMO

---Bentancur--Hojberg
-----------Neves

Would be very well balanced

I was explaining to my dad and brother in law today about Bissouma and how as long he is found innocent in his case I want to go all out for him. I don't want a greenwood situation hanging over our club. He is so freaking good, looks confident, smart on the ball, great work rate. He is a true 50 mil player and that doesn't even feel like that would be enough to get him from Brighton.

Ask them to name the price. Then pay it immediately. He is an incredible player. Put him and Bentancur in midfield and that dog hunts. Big time.

Summer ‘22, he has only 1 yr left on his contract. Won’t be super expensive and Brighton will be looking to cash in. Plus they are interested in Rodon. So, a deal could be done, without paying an arm and a leg.

He wouldn't cost as much as 50m due to having only 12 months left of his contract in the summer.

Much like Kante, you can clearly see his quality and how he raises the entire team up a level

 

[Ron Burgundy]

This guy would be amazing

Add a RWB and cover for Kane and we’re set. Anything else would be a bonus

Agree, but if I was being greedy I’d add another world class CB to the mix.

 

[Cochise]

In a 343 he'd be perfect alongside Bentancur or Hojbjerg. I agree that in a 352 he's not required.

 

[SamR]

My Brighton friends are thinking more likely Liverpool. Great player and would be a massive statement signing if we can pull it off.

 

[Aphex]

We need to get CL to be able to attract him. Unfortunately you just feel bigger clubs will be in for him.

 

[bigfrooj]

Definitely a top four player. Easily the best player in a decent Brighton team.

 

[theShiznit]

The thing is, you can say he's only got one year left on his contact so he won't cost much. But all it takes is a couple of interested parties (which there definitely are) and the price won't drop much if at all.

Although after what I have heard about him from someone in the know I'm not sure I'd want him, innocent or not.
As if he carries on the way he has, the legal situation he's currently in will follow him around...

This. Great player and one I'd love to see us sign provided he is exonerated and found not guilty. Otherwise I don't want him anywhere near our club.

 

[Cornpattbuck]

We missed quite a few sitters anyway but without him I reckon we beat Brighton about 8-0 last night.

He dragged them back into the game single-handedly at times.

 

[barry]

He would make our midfield unbreakable

Thread bump extraordinaire.

 

[Timberwolf]

Why are we reanimating this corpse rather than just getting a new thread? Mods?

There are a shit-ton of articles out there linking him to us.
