2023/24 Youssef Chermiti

…Thelwell will be accountable for paying £40m for the two of them this summer on top of whatever Maupay cost. Thats plenty of money if none of them turns out to be effective.

Maupay £12mil
Chermiti £12.5mil
Beto £21.5mil

£46mil

Of course it depends on what we sell for but if we simply moved on both Beto and Chermiti for small losses...its better than 2 loans (as no money down).

….La La Land if you think Beto and Chermiti can be moved on for ‘small losses’. Even then it’s finding clubs who’ll match their salaries because neither will leave for a drop in pay.
 
So speaking of the 42.5m that we have spent on 3 strikers...Ill give Beto a full season before caring about that figure. Chermiti was clearly signed with the idea that he wasn't ready, and it looks like when he plays he's not ready, shocker that. In about a year we will actually be able to comment on if we got a good striker from that obviously 42.5m.
 

Chermiti is exactly the kind of deal we laud Brighton for regularly.
They replace those they sell easily because they have young lads not making the team getting ready to step up

…we laud Brighton because they buy talent. I didn’t see they were interested in Chermiti.

Nobody is saying the strategy of buying young players is not the right one but they have to be quality young players. We bought DCL, Stones and Branthwaite plus the likes of Lookman. Signing a young player per se is pointless, let alone spending £15m on one if they’re not very good.

in case posters don’t know what transfers are about, the trick is signing good footballers. If Chermiti turns out to be effective at this level then fine but it’s surely acceptable to comment on his performances in a footy forum.
