I notice he's in and around the Brighton squad whereas Siggy has fallen off the face of the earth at Everton

Siggy has actually been charged, Bissouma just arrested.
The delusion is quite strong here.

Brighton player arrested on suspicion of sexual assault
Brighton statement: Brighton & Hove Albion are aware that one of its players is assisting police with the investigation of an alleged offence. The matter is subject to a legal process and the club is therefore unable to make further comment at this time
Not many good HG players available (and we have spare spaces for HG players so we could have bought him without selling a player) - and this season he's scored 3 goals with 5 assists in 17 appearances last season (his first in PL) he got 8 goals with 6 assists in the full season with 40 appearances.
By comparison Lucas Moura has 2 goals and one assist this season in 15 appearances, and last season and 9 goals and 8 assists in 50 appearances.
Bowen's increase in productivity in his 2nd PL season so far if converted to a full season could see him at 20+ goals/assists for a full season of 40 to 50 appearances which would be pretty good going.
Bowen cost less than Moura so there was no 'HG tax' |(£18m plus add ons of £8m I think versus Sancho £80m, Grealish £100m etc)
So certainly not world class but a very decent player for the squad...... and better than many/most recent acquisitions

Eze is the one that bugs me..... I respect him and anyone that opts for 1st team football rather than splinters, but surely we could have convinced him there was a starting role to shoot for.... Afterall he still has to earn his spot at Palace.
Eze has a higher ceiling too....
From what I have seen of him this season, I am struggling to see what the fuss is about, too.
He’s a lovely player. Olise is also HG, another baller
Yes and no.
He does represent a lot of what we need- HG, RW, can score goals.
In part it shows how far we have fallen when he is a player that would improve us a lot but also shows how poor our recruiting is that it isn't a Ronaldo. Messi, Neymar that we missed out on and that is why we are struggling but a Championship player that we easily could have bought without problem.
Although had we bought him many would have lost their mind that we were adding a Champo clogger.
He is a guy that seems to be very good or very poor. I know that a lot of Milan fans said he was poor in midfield 3 but then really improved when they switched to a pair with him and Bennancer. I am not sure that is a good sign when Conte will almost surely play a 3-5-2.
Also not sure it is a good sign if a player is formation dependent and not flexible in what he can bring. I think he clearly has a lot of physical skills that will always excited fans/managers but if he is having another poor season he might not be the fit we need.
I also have concerns about how him, PEH, Skipp all fit in a Conte side. None can play the deep lying role and they aren't creative enough to have 2 of them in at the same time. Seems like we would have 3 guys for 1 role.
Conte may play a midfield pair in a 343. Skipp is a DM but needs a footballer next to him
A 3-4-3 doesn’t work for us because we have no RW and a front 3 is terrible for Kane and to a lesser extent Son.
If we stick with that formation then it doesn’t really matter who we have in MF as it won’t work anyways.
You're right. let's change the manger.
What????
I suggested we play his preferred formation and your take is change the manager?
