Summer transfer window.

Please re-read original post. Especially bit that says:

BIG oversimplifcation but that's sort of the gist of it

I don't know why you are being so deliberately ignorant of the caveats that I am being so careful to highlight. It's getting quite tiresome

However I'll play along: yes, IN MY OPINION I think Brighton and Bournemouth value certain, measurable physical attributes of players more than we do (top speeds, most sprints per 90, duels won, yada yada). And yes I think we definitely value less tangible attributes like set piece delivery, or personality, or premier league experience over what they do. And yes I do think that is in part determined by their ambitions to simply stay in the league and our ambitions to progress up it. Happy now?
Not really no. I thought your original premise was frankly an embarrassing take.

Brighton and Bournemouth have ambitions to progress up it and we're the ones happy to stay in it.
