Tommy Watson - Don’t shoot the messenger!!!!!


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.
The lack of ambition in giving us the very best chance of a top two finish was again shown by the lack of player support in the Jan window….. we are now paying the penalty for the lack of foresight, understanding of what was needed.
 
I have had it on good authority there is some credence in the previous rumour about him wanting to move on because he wants to be first choice. I can understand why (duly noting he won’t be forcing himself straight into Brighton first team), but if he’s patient, Mundle will be sold for a profit and he would be first choice. 🤷‍♂️😬🫣
 
Don't worry about it, I think the majority of our squad will be ripped apart in the summer, for the money. We'll be starting again, so god know where we will end up.
 
Not arsed, we’ve got a fair few good youngsters coming through as it is & Mundle is far superior (currently).

Ciao Tommy, best of luck kid.

Move on because he wants to be first choice ..well ok but from a football point of view he's had a handful of games looking class in some and very ordinary in others..won't be anywhere near Brighton first 11.. sounds like a move for money which I suppose is fine
 
They will sell that Japanese winger for a fortune so maybe an opening on the wing, he’s nowhere near that level at the minute but might be, 5 year contract at 30k a week is chicken feed to mighty Brighton, shows how far away we are
 
I’d be telling him to take the money at a prem club renowned for nurturing young talent.

If he was mine I would be asking him to do what makes him happy and my parents would be the same. If he was my lad I would also be say “look, the likelihood of you been with this lass this time next year is unlikely, ignore the father in law”
