Manager of the Month
Once again I pick up the manager of the month award which is great personally but it could not have happened without the players performing great, Some have questioned the training methods of mine but seems like the results are paying off
We left it till very late today but we came away from Bournemouth with all 3 points! Felt it should had been more comfortable but the 3 points is all that matters as we continue on our push for the Premiership.
My star player of the match was Gordon Greer, A great performance from the captain today as he and Zebina kept the Bournemouth strikers quiet today
Game 16
An easy victory in the end today but it was helped by Wigan going down to 9 men in the first 15 Minutes
My star player of the match was Christian Walton, commanded the defence greatly today and got himself a couple of goals!
Game 17
A great win here today over a good Blackburn Rovers side and I expected more of a fight from them as our run continues of being undefeated, Would been nice to see Enrich get his 3rd today but goalkeeper saved the penalty
My star player of the match was Sergi Enrich, A great game for him today really delighted the home fans with his amount of chances on goal, the AMEX crowd can see big things for him and so can I as that was his 11th goal for Brighton already in his short career so far.
Game 18
A great win today for us against a very good Norwich side and my toughest match as manager so far but delighted with the victory today.
My star player of the match was Lewis Dunk, A great performance from Lewis today and will be a major player for us for many years to come.
Game 19
And we end the month with another tough match but we please the AMEX crowd with another win and the unbeaten run continues, Stockdale and Hughes faced their old club today and both got a good reception from the away Fulham fans

Club Awards
Manager of the Month
For the 3rd month running I have picked up the Manager of the Month award but it's just a further praise on my players so far this season
I seriously thought this is where our first defeat was going to come from but a mistake by their defence allowed us to get the equaliser but well done to the players today for hanging on
My star player of the match was Christian Walton, he kept their strikers out a number of times today and was only defeated in goal due to a defensive mistake by ourselves.
Game 21
A good win here for us today, we came back with two quick goals in the second half and it was enough to see us through today
My star player of the match was Adama Traore, A great game from him today which included another good goal for him today to take his tally to 4 for the season so far.
Quarter Final
So we go crashing out of the Capital One Cup but we put in a great effort today against a top team like Chelsea and was surprised when we took the lead. This also gives us our first loss under my management.
My star player of the match was Ruben Neves, He had a good game today and helped the defence a lot during the game
Game 22
How we came away with the win today I don't know but a great performance from the lads today to keep this great run going especially as Wolverhampton Wanderers were Second Place, there does not seem to be any stopping us in the league at this moment in time.
My star player of the match was Jake Forster-Caskey, A great game from him today with two great assists, an all round good performance.
Game 23
A brilliant performance for the fans today as we secured a great win on boxing day, It has been a delight for me to see this amazing run continue.
My star player of the match was Adama Traore, A brilliant performance as he set up all 3 goals today which was a delight to see from the youngster.
Game 24
Was hoping for a win to see out 2014 but it was an even game today and the draw was the right result. Things may have been different had Stockdale scored the penalty but the pressure against his old club got to him in the end I think.
My star player of the match was Kazenga LuaLua, A good game for him today in a match not of the best of qualities.

What a season for him so far and will continue to be a vital part to the second half of the season
Adama Traore
What a loan signing he has been, Was delighted that Barcelona trusted us with his development.
Bruno
A brilliant first half of the season for the Right Back, Him and Calderon have been fighting it out for the place and both are good enough
3 Players Who Have Unimpressed Me
Craig Mackail-Smith
I have been very disappointed with CMS this season and with his contract running out at the end of the season I may look to let that run down but will also look to sell him on now to get some money
Andrew Crofts
I really like and respect Andrew but he will need to step up his game if he wants to continue here with us but if things fail to change then he will be gone
Danny Holla
Holla has been in and out of the side during the first half of the season as his performances had not been good enough, Will be looking for a massive change with him during this second half of the season.
A victory which was expected today but Rochdale put up a great fight today but our quality just shone through in the end.
My star player of the match was Sam Baldock, He has struggled with injuries this season so it was great to see him get a hat-trick today even if it was against lower league opposition.
Game 25
Disappointed with the draw as I felt this was a game we really should be winning especially as we was 2-0 up inside 6 minutes.
My star player of the match was Ruben Neves, A great game for him today and he scored a great goal during the match
Game 26
I was not impressed with us today at all and feel we was lucky to come away with the draw but I was delighted with Baldock's late goal
My star player of the match was Danny Holla, He had a good composed game today and helped keep the strikers quiet after their early goal.
4th Round
We did it! what a great game this was from my players as we knock out Arsenal! Last season's Winners out of the competition! Can not fault the effort in any of my players today. I decided to give new signing Fernando Pacheco his debut today and he had a great game
My star player of the match was Lewis Dunk, He had an amazing performance today and was a rock at the back as we marched our way onto victory!
Game 27
A tough match for us today but delighted to have got the win as we have struggled in the league this month for wins
My star player of the match was Sam Baldock, Another great game for Baldock as he continues his great run of scoring as of late with Enrich out with an injury.
Game 28
A nice composed easy win by us today against the bottom side in the league as our amazing run in the league continues.
My star player of the match today was Craig Mackail-Smith, He had a great game today with scoring one and assisting the other two during the match, He is in the last couple months of his contract so will have to see what happens with him.

Club News
I am delighted to have been offered a new contract by the chairman Mr. Bloom and I will continue to extend my contracts for as long as Brighton want me as I never want to leave the club.
Karim Ansarifard - C. Atletico Osasuna - £99K: Karim was someone we had agreed to a Pre-Contract agreement to come in during the summer but after the sale of O'Grady I decided to pay £99K to bring him in now instead and feel he can add great quality for the rest of the season.
Fernando Pacheco - Real Madrid/Castilla - £225K: Like Karin, Fernando was someone we had agreed to bring in during the summer but after Gordon's sale and Walton picking up an injury for 3 months, I felt it was best to pay a bit extra now so he can compete with Stockdale for the Number One spot and will now have 3 great goalkeepers who I will most likely use in the Premiership
Out
Chris O'Grady - Wigan - £700K: I decided to let Chris go because he was not performing that great and with the form of Enrich and Baldock coming back he was not going to get much game time so decided to let him go.
Gordon Greer - Brentford - £300K:A transfer I did not expect to happen but it is a reasonable fee for him as I would have looked to let him go during the summer as the focus will change for next season with going with younger players.
Casper Ankergren - Released: With Fernando coming in Casper was 4th choice and was going to be going in the summer anyway but after deciding to bring Fernando in now instead of the summer, I felt it would be best for him to look for another club.
Kemy Agustien - Released: Kemy is someone I tried to get rid of during the summer but no-one was interested so gave him a chance in the first team but he did not perform well and as his contract was running out in the summer, I decided be best to release him now.
I decided to let a youngster go out on loan for first team experience.
I am in the process of securing a massive free signing who has tons of Premiership and European experience, He will be revealed in a new post once it is done.
Michael Essien has joined Brighton and Hove Albion on a Free Transfer
"This is a massive signing for us and I am surprised he accepted to come here but he will add massive quality to the side for our push to the Premiership."
What an amazing way to start the month and we was without Greg Halford is on loan from Nottingham Forest but it was a brilliant performance with some amazing goals and was delighted to give Essien and Ansarifard their debuts today.

We made it through to the Quarter Finals! I don't know how but we did it! I could not have wished for a better season so far.

Game 34
A great game here today for football fans but not a great day to be a manager! lost the lead right at the death but it was a great strike from Simone Pepe with virtually the last kick of the game.
My star player of the match was Ruben Neves, A great composed game for him today, A player with bags loads of potential and will go very far in his career.

Our first game since being crowned as Champions and we picked up a small win away to Millwall which is a great result considering just like us, they have surprised many teams this season with being in 5th with only being 3 points behind second place so this could turn out to be a Premiership fixture next season.

As expected Norwich finished 2nd and out of the Play Off teams, I think Sheffield Wednesday could pull off a big shock and get the promotion.

2 Players Who Did Not Impress Me
Andrew Crofts
Was not impressed with him at all this season and will most likely head out of the club during the summer
Nick Powell
Was not impressed with him during his loan spell and will be glad to see him go back to Manchester United and I think the fans are as well
As you can see, A lot of players joined but the majority of them are youngsters for the Under 21's and Under 18's squad so I can build for the future of this club, A major shock was the sale of Sergi Enrich, It was not planned but It helped with a lot of deals so it was a good business decision.
Most of the youngsters brought in for the future are mostly English players as my vision is to eventually turn into an all English team.

Despite the results this was a successful Pre-Season in terms o building the fitness for the season ahead.
