Evan Ferguson

Another year playing regularly and scoring in a decent Brighton team is probably best for him at this stage. No point moving to a side where his playing time will be halved. The Brighton manager clearly likes him and is managing him well.

Imagine wanting him to go to the shitshow that is united? To learn from septic poisonous cunts like Fernandes and Antony?

Wonder how much heā€™s on now at Brighton?

He signed a new Deal in October - presume before that he was literally on pittance like any other academy player.

Iā€™d imagine itā€™s still a relatively small amount, might be different if he was negotiating it now

Id imagine theyā€™re already in talks.

Iā€™d be thinking between 3k-10k per week with good goal/win bonuses.

Its when players go from that to real money that their heads can go all over the shop.

Why should he go to Utd? Why not Serie A or La Liga.

TFK had Connolly called spot on from very early on.

@Nembo_Kid knew.

Id say the draws are that he is a utd fan and that ten haag is a good coach and utd look to be going places. Iā€™m sure lots of other clubs have draws too.
Heā€™d get bear hugs at liverpool.

Weā€™re a few posts away from ā€œunited have turned the cornerā€.

There is a lot of hype but Irish media havent proclaimed him as the 2nd coming or anything either. He has more goals and assists than any teenager in Premier League this season. Gary Lineker and Danny Murphy have singled him out. I think Iā€™d prefer to see him develop at a club in Italy, Spain or Germany which might make him a more rounded player. Its the quality of some of the efforts that are particularly eye catching. His 2 goals at the weekend showed great agility with 2 contrasting style of finishes. His glancing header to save a point against Chelsea where he arrived late into the box was sensational too.

Sweet suffering Jesus

Agent Danny welbeck is on the job.

Anyone have the stats on which other teenagers topped the goals & assists combo in previous Premier League season? Just to see are they real superstars or if there are any duds.

I think he looks very promising but comparisons with the very best are a bit off yet. Letā€™s be fair, he has practically no competition for a spot with Brighton especially since Trossard left.

Would Ferguson start ahead of a Toney, a Watkins, even an Antonio (who himself struggles to start every week) at this moment in time? Probably not. So Brighton is a great place for him to develop where they play a nice style of football and he has little competition.

TransferMarkt has Fergusonā€™s current market value at 10 million euro.

Arsenal it is then. Be a great move.

And Weghorst at ā‚¬14m.

Seems legit.
