I would be amazed if he wasnt considering Brighton’s plans to bring in another attacker. Actually a loan move will be no harm change of scenery bit of a humbling too dropping down. He also seems short on confidence on the field snatching at chances etc. Hed play easily every week for most Championship teams get a regular run of games find his way again score a few goals get his eye back in find form. 

Has a list of small off the field issues as long as his arm the last 18 months or so. From speaking to a Brighton fan living in Brighton he’s not liked by their local fanbase at the moment and it’s for this as much as what’s been happening on the field. 

They are all small issues and stupid sh*t that plenty idiotic young fellas will do. However all thrown in together they add up. 

As for his girlfriend being in Love Island irrelevant on a football forum. File it under “who cares”.

I agree with all thats said about him being a bit.. let's say immature.

Hes still by far our best forward option. You'd have him ahead of Robinson, idah, parrott and collins.

Hes not returned a goal tally yet, I would agree with that but he can cause defenses problems, he's got pace and a bit of a aggression about him that defensive players don't like.

Hes also got that direct drive for goal, where he'll get more aggressive and want the ball more if he's not scoring. You know the attitude I'm talking about where he'll not hide if he gets frustrated in games he'll up the energy. Similar in a way the made mcclean successful. 

Hes also got good technical ability so let's hope he grows out of the immature  nonsense and focus on the football from an ireland perspective

To me he’s snatching and rushing chances in his limited appearances at Brighton. He’s been in and out the team. That’s no issue compare the CVs of the players he’s competing for a place with unless he’s shooting the lights out that’s all he’s going to be doing. 

I’d love to see him get a loan move to a Championship club would play every week for most of them he can find his way a bit again get his eye in and confidence back up.  A few goals would come with that almost certainly.

Glad I signed in here for an update on Love Island.
Sweet Jaysus.

Connolly suffers from a lack of football.
I could care less what his ex is doing or what he posts on Instagram - its of far greater concern that he can't seem to stay fit for more than 1 match at a time.

Hopefully the news season will see a new lease of life and a run of fitness, for both club and country.

Agree, nothing to do with his football career.

Few things on SM that he wasnt named in the starting 11 for Thursdays training sessionand gave a disgraceful performance on Friday session. Potter wasnt impressed and left him out of the squad. Don't know how much truth is in it though.
