It's an odd one with Depoitre. Only just signed for £5 million and considered too unfit to get on the bench. Yet he has to be Mounié's main back up surely.

to be talking about who are the candidates to go down for me shows how some or easly led on early season form.lets see where we all are around end of October time before we can see what develops.As I have said all along if we avoid relagation it will be a great achievement and I think we have a chance of doing that but don't get carried away by early season form whether it be good bad or indifferent,.No one in the club is because they know what a challenge we have.Just enjoy supporting our wonderfull club in what is a real milestone for all concerned Nah I'm happy looking at the table now, just as I was after our first game when we were top, just like after Southampton where we were top. If you have a problem with people discussing who are candidates to go down and therefore who may eventually end up there instead of us you should probably give this forum a miss from now on. Brighton and Newcastle fans are clearly unhappy, and the club's obviously wanted to do more business. This is emphasised by Benitez moaning in every interview and the Brighton chairman coming out with a statement this morning. West Ham are seemingly in turmoil at the moment but have a good squad and the same could be said of Crystal Palace. At least half the division is in danger of getting relegated. I'm enjoying every minute, if not still in a bit of disbelief after every positive result. This will continue all season and even more so while we don't occupy a relegation place and you're not going to stop anyone debating who may continue to occupy those spots instead of us. Good lad. I'm not stopping you debating any thing. keep supporting and giving your views.

Surely Wagner must know if Mounie gets a bad injury in the next month or so, we will be in deep trouble. We have Depoitre as backup, but he's not even getting on the bench! Quaner, at best is a makeweight and Kachunga is definitely not a striker. We have one player who is a left footed winger, Ince, but his best position is on the right! VLP is right footed, playing on the left. Kachunga is supposedly a striker, yet he's playing as a right winger! Thank God we don't have Lossl playing right back! It just seems to be an hotch potch. Yes, we've had a great start, but I am seriously concerned we don't have the right players for the Prem. We desperately needed a left winger and I'm sure most will agree VLP is not good enough for the Prem. Fans were moaning about him in the Championship! So far, Kachunga has struggled, as has Smith. Zanka has defended well up to now, but he's got to improved his passing. Schindler and Lowe have been amazing and have shown everyone they are true class. Yes, we can only spend so much and we don't want to be throwing silly money around, like some clubs have done in this window. We have done some great business, but I strongly believe Wagner has made a big mistake in not bringing in a striker and a left winger this window. Whether that's because he feels his squad is good enough or he could not get the players he was after. Only time will tell. Fook me Who is this bell end?? Seriously?

Same with Robben. Ronaldo right footed, plays more from the left. Imagine if they had your tactical brain and switched over, they may have had semi-decent careers...

So, you seriously think that if Mounie gets injured, we have someone who can come in and score goals? Need I say more! VLP, Prem quality? Never. Kachunga has missed a few sitters and should have scored at least one against Newcastle. The only time Ince has shown what he can do was when he moved to the right wing, that is his position. Cutting in from the right and scoring. Maybe Kachunga could do the same playing on the left? Fook me, no thanks! Bell end? Hmmm, well that must be you, as you have nothing serious to say.

And seriously - you've no understanding of a 4 2 3 1 system- the front four are supposed to be flexible and interchangeable - your so called your 'hotch porch'. And don't be so self congratulatory with statements like 'I'm sure most will agree...' Obviously Wagner feels his squad is good enough - maybe you should trust him a bit more - surely he deserves that rather than your diatribe calling his judgement into doubt!

Our top STRIKER from last season on our books as a STRIKER Kachunga. Perhaps Depoitre will be available for West Ham, neither you or I have any idea why he wasn't on the bench the last couple of games. Three games in 7 points out of 9 and you're slagging of players like VLP who like all the players used so far has made a significant contribution towards those points.

Surely Wagner must know if Mounie gets a bad injury in the next month or so, we will might be in deep trouble. We have Depoitre as backup, but he's not even getting on the bench for the first match and played in the Cup! Quaner, at best is a makeweight who created the third goal at Palace and Kachunga is definitely not was also bought as a striker. We have one two player s who is a are left footed winger, Ince and Lolley, but his their best position is on the right! VLP is right footed, playing on the left. Kachunga is supposedly a striker, yet he's playing as who made a successful transition last season to a right winger! Thank God we don't have Lossl Puertouk as manager. playing right back! It just seems to be an hotch potch a squad we've assembled for less than Danny Drinkwater just cost Chelsea. Yes, we've had a great start , but I am seriously concerned we don't have the right players for the Prem. We desperately needed a would probably have preferred to get another left winger and I'm sure most will agree it's too soon to judge whether VLP, or anyone else, is not good enough for the Prem. Fans were moaning about him most of the players at one point or other in the Championship! So far, Kachunga has struggled done ok, but not as good as last season, as has Smith has improved game on game as his fitness returns. Zanka has defended well up to now, but he's got to improved his passing. Schindler and Lowe have been amazing decent and have shown everyone they are true class that they can step up to this level. Yes, we can only spend so much and we don't want to be throwing silly money around, like some clubs have done in this window. We have done some great business, but I strongly believe Wagner has made a big mistake in not bringing may have wanted to bring in a another striker and a or left winger this window. Whether that's because he feels his squad is good enough or he could not get the players he was after. Only time will tell. Just tried to make it a more realistic statement of what has really happened !!

Some people forget how good Kachunga was for us upfront last season. I personally was against him being moved to accommodate Wells, but then he smashed it as right attacking mid too.
Superb player, he's the German import I was the least thrilled about signing but turned out to be an absolute gem.

I hope not, as he'd be gone. Man City have a buy back clause, which the Australian press reported as being in excess of A$40m, so Town wouldn't see all the financial benefit. As a fan not an accountant, I want Mooy to be excellent but not too excellent! Surely Mooy has the final say if he signs a buyback contact.... Not saying he wouldnt at Citeh, but its surely not that straight forward. Don't those buy back clauses just mean the City would have first dibs at say A$40 million? At that point they may not want him / invoke the clause. Or do they mean City could buy him at any point for A$40 million?

For all of Brighton's forum meltdown, one or two of the sensible fans, who seem to think our two clubs are relatively comparable, really seem to appreciate how we have gone about our transfer business. Here's another one:
"So, you say, what about Huddersfield, in the same position as us? They did brilliantly because it just so happens that Wagner and his advisors had such detailed knowledge of his own and nearby leagues that he could identify and pick players literally no-one else was interested in, completely under the radar. Their recruitment strategy has thus been brilliant, in a league of its own. It is one I am sure we aspire to and I hope are learning from! Well done to them."
Remember when Arsene Wenger first arrived on the scene - he brought in loads of French players that very few in the PL had heard of, becasue he knew the league and what they were capable of, and turned Arsenal into world beaters.

What position are you having Kachunga as? On the bench for me, he's not as good as Ince on the right, not as good as VLP on the left, not as good as Mouniere & Depoitre (from the 2 games I've seen him in) up front and not a good enough footballer to play #10 Your lineup is missing a No 10, and if Ince is the best No 10 (DW thinks he is at the moment) your reasoning falls down.

Yes, we can only spend so much and we don't want to be throwing silly money around, like some clubs have done in this window. We have done some great business, but I strongly believe Wagner has made a big mistake in not bringing in a striker and a left winger this window. Whether that's because he feels his squad is good enough or he could not get the players he was after. Only time will tell. In which transfer window did we sign Mounie, Depoitre and Ince? I don't understand the pessimism - ok some of our players may not be the standard required to keep us up but the last two home games have been excellent entertainment and have had a great atmosphere. If we go down we go down- I'll be disappointed (although one benefit would be that I would be able to get away tickets again). I'm going to enjoy the journey to survival or relegation - why worry about things beyond our control?

Let's see what happens in the coming weeks. Let's see how they cope against some of the top sides, then we will have a good idea of what we need to do in the January transfer market. Personally, I think we will need at least 3 more players.

Personally, I think we will need at least 3 more players. I don't mean to join in on the angry mob, so I respectfully ask do you think we need only 3 players to compete with the top sides? Why do you think we need to compete with the top sides and realistically what are you hoping for this season? For me we break it into a mini league, and we make the six pointers count. Be brave with the big teams and look for upsets, but not expect them.

Personally, I think we will need at least 3 more players. How do established Premier League teams cope against top sides? They generally don't, doesn't make them a bad team. So if we lose against the top sides we need to do serious work in January? I think not. Love your positivity!
