Looked like he has a bit of pace too. He was getting on the end of his bad touch before Moder nipped in ahead of him to score.

Yeah, probably too early. Especially with the way the Ireland fixtures fall, & Kenny aiming to win the NL group, Ferguson won't be getting much gametime for Brighton before that.

Brighton have Spurs in the next round of the Cup, so I wouldn't see him getting more than the usual 10mins there.
And in the PL he won't get much either, maybe 5-10minutes against a Burnley or a Norwich.

I could see the next year for him going something like:
Mostly playing U23s, but if Brighton get a decent draw in the EFL Cup next season, then Ferguson could get a couple of starts there in August/September/October, depending on the level of opposition. He'll be turning 18 at that point.
Interspersed with some PL minutes off the bench vs lesser teams.
Then maybe an FA Cup game next January before heading out on a half-season loan to a League 1 club (Portsmouth or MK Dons or something).

Perhaps if we have a couple of friendlies in November he could get capped then.

Yeah thought he was gonna get there too 

Should have kept himself onside for the disallowed one but still going he’ll learn

Looks to have good movement

not so sure it was a bad touch. Think he meant the touch to go around the defender.

I'd love to give him the benefit of the doubt BSM but I definitely think it was a bad touch.

On the bench again for Brighton vs Crystal Palace. Could tonight be the night he gets his PL debut?

is it a case he'll be a bench player for the rest of the season now that Connolly is at Boro or is there a Brighton player out injured who'll dislodge him when they're back?

Not sure. They have another young forward, 19yo Sarmiento, who is injured at the moment (expected back in late February). He has 2 PL apps & 2 EFL Cup apps this season.

Aside from that, from looking at their squad list, all their other forwards were available tonight - Maupay, Trossard, Welbeck, & Ferguson.

Ferguson has played against Cardiff (ELF Cup, missed the Swansea game with a knock) & WBA (FA Cup), so I think there's clear intent they want to move him up a bit & it's looking good that he'll be on the bench a lot for the rest of the season.

Their next run of games:
Chelsea (PL)
Leicester (PL)
Spurs (FA Cup)
Watford (PL)
Burnley (PL)
Aston Villa (PL)

Might get another 10 minute run vs Spurs in the Cup.
If he's going to get his PL debut anytime soon then the Watford or Burnley games could be a good bet.

Would be good if he can continue to get minute under his belt this season. 

Interesting thought is that it's difficult to see how he's that far behind Idah, Connolly or Parrott at the moment in terms of his progress.

Idah only has the last few games of late and was subbed today, connolly only finding himself again at boro and parrott still making progress in league 1.


Ah those lads are miles ahead of Ferguson. Parrott is the youngest of those 4 (including Obafemi) and still about 2.5 years older than Ferguson

Or do you mean when they were his age?

Anyway, the fact Potter is comfortable throwing Ferguson on for 15mins vs Spurs bodes well for a Premier League debut in the near future.

As I said in a previous post though, hopefully he follows more the Parrott route (goes on loan once he's 18) rather than the Connolly/Idah/Obafemi route (staying at their parent club until 20/21 getting sporadic appearances).

Highly regarded at Brighton it would seem.

Graham Potter gave a late run-out to 17-year-old striker Evan Ferguson, who has impressed Veltman since coming into the first-team squad.

I was hoping he might score that tap-in when [Hugo] Lloris spilled the shot at the end but his goal will come,” said Veltman. “He is doing really well in training.”

Great stuff. Decent minutes for him as well, not just a few seconds at the end.

The youngest player to appear in the EPL this season (Kaide Gordon was younger when he appeared, but Ferguson is younger than Gordon, if that makes sense).

58- Ferguson- 4

Came on after 68 minutes, and was not in the game at all. First touch let him down on a couple of occasions, and overall an ineffective cameo.

Sussex Express

Evan Ferguson - 6

Was full of zest when he came on for his Premier League debut but didn't have much time on the ball.
