Everton appoint Lee Sargeson as manager of scouting

[Rita_Poon]

One thing about Brighton that definitely gets overlooked is the owner, he built and bought in to this whole structure he wanted for the club to move forward with. it's not just the manager, the DOF, the head of scouting. its the actual owner and unless you have that ( which we don't ) then just bringing these name's in because of how well Brighton our doing can't even guarantee they will do any better then who you had before in that role. Brighton already have set plans in place for any possible contingency. They will already have a perfect replacement for this man..
Thellwell looks like he's trying to move the club in the right direction, but unless the people above wholeheartedly buy into it and put there whole weight behind it will just be more heartache..

Only Todd Boehly puts out those kind of numbers.

This makes me wonder even more what Thelwell does. Imagine travelling miles and miles scouting just for the board to actually sign no one.

Their transfer success is very much stats / data driven from their owners betting data afaik.
Similar to Brentford.
No doubt whoever was left of their back room after Potter left are competent but I guess we’ll soon find out how much was having and eye for it and how much was exclusive access to data and algorithms.
I doubt we are getting some sort of transfer / youth team guru.

Dont forget we lost Ashworth to NUFC and Winstanley to CFC. Knowing how Tony Bloom works this wont change things at BHAFC. Brighton rely on the Data and Algorithems that are intrusted to Starlizard employee, Blooms betting company, its them who crunch the data.

As others have said, the whole structure at Brighton is based around a collective unit. The squad is a collective, not one star player. Trossard could’ve said to have been our star player; but he actually lost his place in the team to Mitoma prior to transfer.

This extends through the whole organisation. The only constant is Mr. Bloom and his world leading analytics business, which made him astonishingly rich. He is a mathematician and very shrewd businessman - arguably the best owner in the world.

As has been shown with playing staff, coaching staff and backroom staff - losing one employee in the collective pool of talent doesn’t actually change much because the whole strategy is about future planning for this to happen.

Most Albion fans hadn’t heard of the chap, but wish him well with you. I wouldn’t expect sudden influxes of Mitoma’s, Caicedo’s, MacAllister’s, Sanchez’s, Ferguson’s - the whole strategy has to change to get those types of results.

At the end of the chain is Bill. On the phone to the speaking clock, pretending to offer 40 mill for someone we have no intension of buying.

Does he have Kia’s number? That’s all we need to know…

 

[Tramps_mate]

Remember when we brought in the guy behind Leicester’s title win?

We forgot to hire his staff that actually scouted the players.. Walsh was a mistake.

This looks like a great move as Brighton have been signing some amazing talents over the past few years.
