I don’t think we would have gone back if we didn’t feel something could happen. Obviously Brighton hold all the cards here but I think his head is turned. I read that his salary is a pittance by PL standards too.
It’s unlikely at this stage but I do believe money talks and if Brighton feel like he won’t be the same player for the remainder of the season they will need to consider selling. That or give him a new contract which would end our interest immediately.
