Tommy Watson ( ...off to Brighton)

I was disappointed we couldn't get a deal done in January. His ratio of good: poor games is dismal, and he is nowhere near ready, and not on Mundle's level.

He was excellent for the few games he played before injury -looked like a young exciting prospect who would be great to watch develop and one who I looked forward to seeing each game ( bit like Clarkey ) .
He’s young , just back from his first lay off and will take a bit of time to refresh
Sounds like it won’t be with us if this is correct .

He is 18 yr old 😂😂 why would an 18 yr old be making a decision to keep there “father in law” happy? I don’t think I was in a relationship long enough aged 18 to meet the parents, let alone take life changing advice from them.

He is not going to be risking anything in the next few weeks with a multimillion pound contract on the table if true.

I know they are premier league and likely offering a very good contract but when a Sunderland lad wants to leave his boyhood club to better his career at Brighton it demonstrates the perceived lack of ambition at this club sadly.

If it's true, I'd say that it says more about the player than the club like!

I didn't see many excellent performances at all tbh.

He was really good at Sheffield United, and truly outstanding against Stoke. I've not seen much else apart from that to justify the daft levels of hype around him and he isn't exactly giving the impression he wants to be here.

I'd far rather stick with Mundle tbh.

Mundle is good as well
I think before his injury he was doing well for a young lad coming into the team

I have it on good authority that it’s deal done him heading to Brighton in the summer

I find that sad news

They’ve been in for him last summer and January.

The club have handled it terribly tbh. Had the transfer agreed last August for them at the last minute to reject it and Tommy had to come back here when everything was agreed

The deal in Jan was pretty much done but we couldn’t get Tommy back on loan before the deadline and it was cancelled.

I honestly don’t blame him for wanting the move. Also his family will be set up for life
 
With all due respect, stories about deals being done ahead of transfer windows turn out to be shite nearly all of the time. Not saying it won't happen, but I'd be surprised if it is already agreed.

Because it's nearly all potential at the minute. Brighton buying Watson is like us buying Aleksic or Mundle, just a level above.
