Man, I’m not even paying attention to the Lavia stuff at this moment. I just want confirmation that we’ve bid again for Caicedo and have been given the green light by Brighton. Lavia afterwards would be the super bonus on top. Get Caicedo sorted first!

He’s just fucking nuts, man. A goddamned machine of a goal scorer.

Can already tell Burnley are going to really struggle in the PL based on how they’re defending here. Leaving De Bruyne WIDE OPEN repeatedly to whip in those signature crosses.

Journalists being briefed at the same time again it seems. Sounds like it’s still far from a sure thing that Caicedo will be ours. So at the moment Lavia could be our insurance in case Caicedo doesn’t happen. We WANT both but it remains to be seen whether that’s possible.

Signing both Caicedo and Lavia would be madness. Like, greatest transfer window ever level madness. Can’t imagine Liverpool just letting us have a free run at Lavia without fighting after what’s gone on with Caicedo.

Every time I open Twitter and see a new unread tweet from Chelsea my heart skips a beat thinking “is this finally it?” And it never is. 😭😭😭

That he hasn’t yet and has been given a squad number suggests to me that he will be kept.

Still nothing, eh? I’m guessing a medical and some paperwork is being done right now. For which club we’ll hopefully find out within the next few hours.

Taking a quick nap. If Caicedo isn’t holding a Chelsea shirt when I wake up I’m banning everyone in this thread. 😜😜😜

That’s surprising. Thought he had already had part of his medical here?

Man, wtf is this? Just match the damn offer or exceed it by a couple million. They just want their damn money.

Feel like the next update we’ll see is an announcement that it’s done rather than us bidding or not.

Still no word on whether we’ve matched or exceeded the Liverpool bid yet…

Caicedo has been following us on IG for months now. That’s not new.

This is the most tiring transfer saga ever. Didn’t think anything would top the Enzo ordeal but this is far worse for me personally. Whether it’s us or Liverpool I hope it’s 100% done and announced by whichever club today so that we can look forward to the actual football.

If we end up with Caicedo then Adams is still the perfect backup for him in the squad.

Awfully quiet on the Brighton side of things…

Put the damn improved bid in before some other insane twist occurs again!

Now we wait to see if Brighton agree to fuck Liverpool over?

Unless and until he’s holding up the shirt of his next club anything can happen with this dude.

At this late juncture you have to wonder what the hell it would even take to swing him back to us. £120m to Brighton for them to fuck over Liverpool after already accepting their bid? £50k per week more in wages to Caicedo? Still seems extremely unlikely.

Don’t do it to yourselves, guys.

The ONLY way anything can change now is if Caicedo himself tells Brighton that he wants Chelsea and not Liverpool. And he doesn’t really seem bothered where he goes.

Club briefing to make it look like we tried everything so our fans aren’t as angry. It’s over. They’ve fucked it.

The embarrassment isn’t just that we lost out at the end. It’s that we FINALLY bid what Brighton wanted once it was too late. He’d be a Chelsea player weeks ago before preseason even started if we bid this £100m. If reports are to be believed, this is now the FOURTH time since the Boehly era started that we’ve made a massive bid for a player once it’s too late. -We bid £50m for Lavia right at the deadline last summer. -We bid for Gabriel Jesus once he had already given his word to Arteta. -I believe it was Ornstein who said we put in a last second bid for Mac Allister after he had already agreed with Liverpool. -And now Caicedo The only one of these last second scrambles we’ve won is Mudryk. And that was only because he wasn’t of utmost importance for Arse but more of a luxury signing.
