I think if they go to 10m/11m upfront and 3 or 4 in add ons we will accept.

Big gamble for Brighton on an unproven talent but got bags of potential.

Personally I think it'll depend on whether we get someone in as much as the price. Getting promoted because he's in the squad is worth a hell of a lot more than £10m/£11m heck even £25m (not a typo).

Apparently club are definately going to accept bid for him tomorrow now according to on here. To me 10 million isn't a lot in grand scheme of things. People wanting to get rid of our exciting young players as soon as a bid come in for them🤦‍♂️

Because this much talk in the press sounds like they have a price they are willing to accept, every player has a price, especially if that player won't agree a new deal and would go for free in 18 months.

Tin hat firmly on, but I don’t think he’s the difference between promotion or not, Mundle is.

Watson coming through was an added bonus when we were doing well and a get out clause after Mundle got injured.

Watson is a ‘nice to have’ and would be great to see him develop here, but I think we’re fine without him providing we bring someone in to cover Mundle.

Unfortunately does appear to be heading that way. There's no way they're this insistent if they haven't had some dialogue with Watson's agent/team saying he's open to the move.

Pretty much my thinking too. What could we actually get for 10 million if we do sell? Unless we have something lined up already we won't spend the money or we end up paying over the odds on a desperation signing like we did with Grigg.

Depends if Mundle gets back before the end of the season. Still a few weeks out ain't he and nothing to say he'll be back in the squad immediately? Don't disagree there though to be fair but without Aouch.. (cba to search how to spell) out aswell it's very lacking up there.

Why bring in someone to cover mundle when we have such a great prospect as Watson? What is the hurry in getting rid of him???

Mundle is due back before Watson.
