The Seagulls have announced the signing of midfielder Enock Mwepu from RB Salzburg for an undisclosed fee.

[1964white]

Arsenal made a third bid for Ben White.

[Cjay]

We were linked to Mwepu with Dourtmund by some random Zambian journalist a while back.

No idea if he is any good but Salzburg do find plenty of gems tbf.

Could turn out to be brilliant business

Quality signing that.

[Muppet the Cat]

He must have impressed in their friendly against Getafe.

[1964white]

Blimey! Brighton on 12 points already, 4th in the table.

They've done good. See what consolidation does for you in the Premier League

They certainly have Swannie.

I didn't expect that scenario, although I didn't anticipate Leeds on three points after five games.

Early days but the sooner we gain a victory the better.

Brighton midfielder Yves Bissouma was videoed being handcuffed and arrested and then taken out of a Brighton nightclub the other night.

The players friend who is reportedly in his 40s was also arrested.

Coincidentally its also been reported that a Brighton footballer in his 20s and a man in his 40s were also arrested in a Brighton nightclub for sexual assault. . . . . Nobody was named.

Good point for the seagulls at Anfield

Another difficult game on the horizon for Leeds at the end of the month

[whiteswan]

I'm beginning to think all games are difficult in the premier league 64

You are correct my dear Swannie

Spurs & Brighton will be extremely difficult away games.

[faaip]

No easy games in the prem ... you won't get many easy games in the Championship ...!!

[1964white]

How poor were Brighton last night particularly in the second-half? they were a shambles!

I suspect the seagulls will be all guns firing for 90 minutes in two weeks time.

[mentalcase]

Up to us to take it to then.

With Saturday in mind, I thought I'd check out the South East boys pretending to be Londoners on their main forum.

There you go, first topic on page one.

Around 15,000 Brighton fans turned up at the Amex to see their team win for the first time in ten games.

[Carrick Dave]

I was watching it and couldn't believe the number of empty seats.
