Surprising this hasn’t had more noise - from all things considered his league 1 stats are very good and he literally played every game last season and season before in this league - could Mean Chaplin is crocked or Russel has realised we need more competition in 10 role than Cullen and bob - either way this guy can play 8 or 10 - I really like this one - he could be the best of all 3 of the Brighton lads 

Reading loved him last season. 
would have taken him again this if they could have done a deal 

I expect a lot from him

Because it all happened so quick and was announced really late I feel like it’s gone under the radar that this is actually a really good signing.

 

Has had two League One loans in a row and done really well in both of them 

This is the bit that makes no sense to me. He has done well in two previous loans at this level, so why didn’t Brighton try him in the Championship? If he is in the last year of his contract, did he push this aiming for a permanent move?

0.76 G+A p90 at Crawley, 7 goals and 4 assists in 14.5 nineties - mostly as a second striker rather than a 10 by the looks of it. Less productive at Reading but seems like he played wider and deeper.

 

Quietly excited by this deal, no contract extension as of yet hopefully means we can pick him up permanently.

 

              Riis

 Alves  Doyle  Howell

  Braybrooke  Page

 

Should just be too much for this level of opposition. 

That's my thinking, I'm hopeful that the loan was the quick way to get it done, and we have something in place were he come perm in Jan. 

 

Feels like he can be one for now and the future like Brastric and Kang.

might be that we can pick him up on a perm in Jan for a cut-price fee if he performs well over the next few months

Little bit lightweight, perhaps, is my only concern.

 

We know the technical ability Alves/Braybrooke/Page have, but need a bit more steel to back that up I think. I'm keen to see how Lundstram fits in as I think he'll give us that, and some level of rotation between the younger lads.

Nice we have decent depth now - other league 1 teams when injuries hit won't have the quality to back up their first XI which will work to our advantage massively over the year.

His tackles and duels data surprised me tbh - he comes in at pretty much league average for a central midfielder which considering he's a 10 is quite encouraging.

He is the steal behind the finesse.

 

We have a lot of young lads playing in a league with a lot of cloggers, Lundstram and Riis for me are signings to add some physicality. 

 

A lot of team will want to drag us into a physical battle, these two are going to help with that as will O'Hora.

I think this is the best of our late window signings.  Young with room to improve, proven at the level, and there's possibilities to make it longer term if he's a success.  And if he's shit, it's thanks for coming see ya later.

 

No downside.

Surely Brighton haven’t sent him out on loan with his contract expiring this season? Must’ve signed an extension or have an option to extend

I've got a feeling it was a quick way of getting him in, and we will sign him permanently in Jan.

 

With us playing a decent loan fee which will be in line with what they wanted for him on a perm.

I’m expecting him to be too good for us to be able to do that

Very little positives from today but he looked decent in the 2nd half with more about him than BDCR 

He did, but so did the bloke in front of me and he needed 3 people to help him to his chair.
