MANAGER'S VIEW: HURZELER SHIELDS CARLOS BALEBA, ANDERSON FROM UNITED
Carlos Baleba and Elliot Anderson, both linked with Man Utd, face off as Brighton visit Nottingham Forest. Live updates.
Nottingham Forest takes on Brighton this Sunday at 2.05 pm at the City Ground in a Premier League match that has many eyes on it for more than just the game itself.
Manchester United is said to be looking for midfield reinforcements. Two players who might fill that void will be on the pitch this Sunday.
Brighton's Carlos Baleba and Nottingham Forest’s Elliot Anderson might face off. Also, Crystal Palace's Adam Wharton will be playing against Manchester United at Selhurst Park on Sunday.
These three, Baleba, Anderson, and Wharton, are supposedly on United's list as Ruben Amorim aims to rebuild the midfield at Old Trafford this summer.
United reportedly tried to sign Baleba from Brighton in the last transfer window, but Brighton's asking price of over £100 million cooled their interest.
Baleba’s form has not been great this season. He was subbed at halftime for the fifth time this season against Brentford last week. He might be benched for Brighton's match against Forest.
Brighton’s coach, Fabian Hurzeler, is remaining patient with the 21-year-old from Cameroon and thinks he will recover his top form.
"We try to help every player get back to their best," Hurzeler said in his pre-match press conference. We take it one step at a time. We aren't pressuring Carlos Baleba by saying he has to play well. He wants to play well himself.
“It's about small improvements. It's about how often he is switched on and how he reacts when we lose the ball. Sometimes you need to be patient, and sometimes you need to be more demanding with players. You have to create the right environment and give them support.”
The talk of a move to United seemed to bother Baleba, but Hurzeler said that it is in the past.
"That's over," the German said. We are four months into the season. We can’t keep talking about those rumours.
“He needs to focus on being a Brighton player and performing here. He needs to get back to his best, avoid noise, avoid all the rumours, and focus on what he can control, which is football.
Fabian Hurzeler is a big fan of Elliot Anderson
Though the rumours continue for Baleba and Anderson. While Baleba has been struggling, Anderson has been playing very well. Hurzeler is a big admirer of the former Newcastle player.
He’s playing great,” said the Brighton boss. “He has a big impact. He’s always asking for the ball. He has great stats. He is always trying to find solutions.
He understands the game well. He’s a joy to watch. He’s a player we have to defend well against, or he can cause problems.
CONOR GALLAGHER CONFIRMED AS "VITAL" STARTER FOR SPURS FOLLOWING BENTANCUR’S INJURY LAYOFF
Conor Gallagher proved the doubters wrong against Man City. Discover why his €40m move to Tottenham is finally paying off for Spurs.

Chelsea and Atletico Madrid both decided Conor Gallagher wasn’t worth the trouble. At Chelsea, he had his moments—Pochettino liked him, but the fans never really warmed up. When Chelsea shipped him off to Atletico, it made sense. Enzo Fernandez stepped up, took over Gallagher’s role, and fit in perfectly next to Caicedo, with Cole Palmer adding that extra spark up front.
Things didn’t get much better for Gallagher in Spain. He barely got a chance at Atleti, lost his spot in the starting eleven, and pretty much ended up on the transfer list before anyone had time to blink. Interest was lukewarm at best until the winter window rolled around. Aston Villa wanted him and went after him pretty aggressively, but then Tottenham swooped in late. Spurs needed someone to patch up the midfield after Bentancur’s injury, so they just paid up—40 million euros, no hesitation.
His start at Tottenham? Rough. Honestly, that was to be expected. He’d played well at Palace before, but after his struggles at Atleti, he needed time to adjust. Sitting on the bench in Spain didn’t do him any favours.
Then Gallagher showed up. People doubted whether he could really add creativity and move the ball forward for Spurs, so his early struggles got people worried. But then came the 2-2 draw against Manchester City. He suddenly looked like the player both Ange Postecoglou and Thomas Frank were so desperate to sign.
Against City, Gallagher flipped the script. He set up a crucial assist, drove play forward on the dribble, and kept drawing fouls—everything the Spurs needed. Defensively, he was all over the place in a good way: two tackles, three interceptions, a full 90 minutes, and a huge part of the Spurs clawing their way back into the game.
Tottenham fans loved it. They saw the effort, the attitude, and the hunger to win. Gallagher just wouldn’t quit, and in that second half, he, Xavi Simons, Pape Matar Sarr, Destiny Udogie, and Dominic Solanke ran the show. Four of those guys have been carrying Spurs lately, so Gallagher is fitting right in with them. That’s a pretty good sign he’s going to work out just fine in North London.
