    Might be interesting to keep an eye on how he progresses compared to those nine.

    He doesn’t have a stupid sounding name which probably doesn’t help his case either.

    There's always a bias towards the bigger countries in these lists. When Ferguson went over to Brighton it was obvious from the off that he was the star of their youth setup. But when the Guardian did their next gen thing where they pick the best prospect from an age grade for each Premier League club, they picked an English kid called Jack Hinshelwood as the best prospect from Brighton instead of Ferguson. He still hasn't kicked a ball for their senior team I don't think. But then the Guardian's success rate with their next gen lists is laughably poor.

    Daire O'Connor got sent off for Ayr a couple of weeks ago. For some reason his name came up on the vidiprinter with the Irish spelling of O'Connor (O'Conchobhair). Stelling just decided to not bother trying to pronounce it.

    I'd say many are to be honest
    I'm a bloke,I'm an ocker
    And I really love your knockers,I'm a labourer by day,
    I **** up all me pay,Watching footy on TV,
    Just feed me more VB,Just pour my beer,And get my smokes, And go away

    If he scores where would he rank amongst youngest goal scorers?

    Don't know if this was answered Eirambler but Bohs do have a 10% sell-on clause for Ferguson.

    That 10% could end up knocking a decade off the mortgage for the new stadium.

    I'm in no rush to see him leaving Brighton but I'm so intrigued to see what the valuation put on him is. Transfermrkt currently have him at 10m. Not hard to imagine the figuring continuing to rise if himself and Brighton keep going the way they have been.

    Big game for Brighton on Saturday vs Brentford, hoping he gets a start.

    He was at £1m up until the update a week ago. In reality £50m probably wouldn't get him this summer (I very much doubt he'll want to move anywhere anyway). If he continues his current trajectory and has even average luck with injuries I wouldn't be surprised if it's a nine figure transfer fee when it happens.

    That would make him twice as valuable as Erling Haaland.

    from Ben Jacobs of Caught Offside, via football365: https://www.football365.com/news/man...ty-is-revealed
    ‘Manchester United, Chelsea, Tottenham, Barcelona and Roma have all scouted Ferguson. This is normal since clubs know they have to track this type of player early and start building relationships ready for when they choose to move,’ Jacobs wrote for Caught Offside.

    I love hearing these stories and so do all Irish fans. We aren't used to it. But it is no surprise really. Strikers of his profile in terms of overall profile (age, ability, skillset etc) are nowhere to be found. Is the last Premiership striker to burst onto the scene with an incredible profile like this Mason Greenwood?

    There's a saying in journalism, if the opposite of a story is more interesting, then it's not much of a story
    I've be more surprised if United, Roma, etc, were not monitoring Ferguson to be honest. They monitor pretty much every player across the top five leagues in Europe.

    I'm monitoring him myself and I couldn't afford to pay a week of his wages ! !

    I don't think he'll move for 9 figures but Haaland was worth way more than his fee. He had a low release clause put in specifically to facilitate a move when he signed for Dortmund. Bit of an anamoly in the market and can't really compare him to anybody.
