Adam Webster has been a revelation since swapping Bristol City for Brighton and proved to be a £20million bargain, and it is time the defender is rewarded with a trip to Qatar for the World Cup in November

For a bit of fun over Christmas, this newspaper did an article in which Sportsmail columnist Chris Sutton rated each club's record transfer as a 'hit' or 'miss'.

From the flops of Paul Pogba and Nicolas Pepe to the smart business of Virgil van Dijk and Youri Tielemans, 19 of Sutton's verdicts were spot on.
