| Yalcouye on 15:20 - Aug 30 with 2926 views | KeithHaynes | Matos has clearly identified that strength is needed in midfield with Lorpenda coming in and at the back with Jenson and Coulibaye as centre backs. Bens injury sounds ominous we’ve already got four centre backs with Burgess and Ben out. |  |

Fabulous through ball for the Brighton 2nd. |  | |  |
| Yalcouye on 20:50 - Aug 30 with 2574 views | EagleEye | Had a decent game I thought. Always liked the look of him, thought he was harshly treated after getting sent off for us. Good luck to the lad |  | |  |
| Yalcouye on 11:02 - Sep 7 with 1900 views | JACKMANANDBOY | Getting good reviews, this one from the Guardian and Brighton manager. There were plenty of questions for Fabian Hürzeler to answer after Brighton’s draw with Leeds, namely why it took them the best part of an hour to wake up. But, for consecutive weekends, the Brighton manager had the pleasure of lauding Malick Yalcouyé’s performance. The 20-year-old was barely known even by his own club’s fans at the start of the campaign, having spent seasons on loan at Sturm Graz and Swansea since joining from Gothenburg for a reported £6m in July 2024. He has since started against Chelsea and Leeds, excelling in an attacking midfield role. Hürzeler said: “He shows a lot of energy, a lot of effort, he is good in possession and out of possession.” The Brighton manager has previously flagged Yalcouyé’s physicality as an area to improve and it is notable just how slight he is at just 5ft 7in. The Ivorian’s confidence, eagerness to enter combat and close control are in no doubt. He could be the next player off the conveyor belt of young talent who Brighton sell for a vast profit. |  |

I'll hold my hands up, I didn't think he was physically strong enough for the championship, I still don't. |  | |  |

I, like a lot of others, likened him to N'Golo Kante. He and Kante have that "bulldog motor" that won't quit when on the field, always "nipping at your heels" literally and figuratively. Yes, he's slight of frame but like Kante his heart is bigger than 5'7"! That's a quality that you don't find in most players. |  | |  |

Always like Yalcouye creativity and movements. I would of liked to see him more last season, but per Matos concentrating on our own players, which is understandable, I thought he was a bit lightweight. Glad he is doing well. Would of learnt alot when with us. [Post edited 13 Sep 17:28]

A player probably more suited to the PL than the physicality of the Championship maybe. |  |
