Does Brighton really think anyone is going to believe that bullshit LOL

"Hey Moises, someone bid more than Chelsea, but unfortunately we cant tell u who, but its NOT Liverpool. Byeee"

Maybe it's City and don't wanna reveal so it doesn't happen like with Rice.

[Pizy 18,368]

If it’s United or Liverpool I think we’d have a chance at convincing him to choose us. We’ve been after him hard and have shown our determination to get him by bidding again and again. That has to mean something to the player. 

But if it’s City I don’t think we have a chance. you don’t say no to Pep and City are as close to a trophy guaranteed as you can get these days.

Brighton claim offer rejected for Caicedo

Chelsea could face competition in their pursuit of Brighton midfielder Moises Caicedo.

Brighton claim they have received a bid, from an as yet unidentified club, that surpasses Chelsea's most recent offer for the 21-year-old Ecuador international worth a total of £80million.

They are intent on holding out for their asking price and won't budge on comparing Caicedo's value to that of England midfielder Declan Rice, who moved to Arsenal from West Ham in a £105m deal.

Brighton previously rebuffed approaches from Chelsea and Arsenal in January.

Chelsea are considering alternative options should a move for Caicedo not materialise, including Liverpool target Romeo Lavia of Southampton.

The bid doesn't seem real.

Pls dont fall for that Brighton spin. We know Brighton lie to Moises whenever they can. 

[Gundalf 804]

If we offer that 100m, Brighton will tell us that the secret club bid 105m and if we wanna get him we have to pay 110m now. Its a Brighton thing.

Has anyone watched Disasi frequently (and not on a 2-3 minute sped up ‘Welcome to Chelsea’ youtube compilation with a dodgy EDM tune either)?

Haven’t seen him play and reading mixed reports. Some saying good some saying bad.

At least hes not another 18-19 year old though and has actually got a bit of experience by looks of it. And has some NT games for France.

Also wouldn’t be surprised if United are in for Caicedo. Although could just be Brighton trying to get us to up our bid but at the same time they’ve repeatedly been saying they wont sell him unless their valuations met and their manager also made a jibe at us about having European football so wanting to keep him. So I don’t get why Brighton would make it up either.

Utd have been following him since he played in Ecuador, nearly signed him ahead of Brighton and have been linked to another midfielder (Amrabaat in particular). Picking from Eriksen, Mount, Fernandes, Casemiro, Caicedo/Amrabat would be pretty strong but also hard to see who plays every week and for the price of Caicedo - seems a risky thing to do. But then at the same time, reading a lot about them wanting to sell Fred, McTominay and Van der Beek so obviously they still want to get some more quality in there. I just hope its not City or Liverpool though as thought they were out of race (despite City going in for Rice).

Haven't seen a ton of Disasi at all, he really does look slow as anything though which gives me Koud vibes. Goal threat and passing look very good, we've lacked the goal threat aspect since losing the Brana’s, Cahill and Terry etc in my opinion, though yes, first and foremost stop goals, however it's good for the CBs to chip in now and again.

Just move on from Caicedo, tired from this shit 8 weeks ago..

Brighton just mocking us and dreg this until end window and wasting our time.

Can't say I know him that well. Did see this though - Leeds results with vs without him:

With Adams in Premier League
Played 24
Won 5
Drew 8
Lost 11
Loss Percentage 45.8%

Without Adams in Premier League
Not played 14
Won 2
Drew 2
Lost 10
Loss Percentage 71.4%

Tyler Adams is a tidy, solid midfielder. The type that I wouldn’t mind having in the squad for midfield depth.

But as the first choice DM and the main player preventing teams from blitzing through the middle of the pitch? HELL no!

If we signed him IN ADDITION to Caicedo that’s one thing. Someone needs to be sacked if he’s bought instead of Caicedo.

I don't know Tyler Adams that well, mostly concerned about his injury and injury record. Not sure it makes sense as he's just had surgery. Probably agent talk this rumour tbh.

Is this a joke?

To me it feels a LOT like the Zakaria/Drinkwater/Barkley moves. We wanted someone way better but then panicked right at the death and pulled the trigger on someone average just to have a body in midfield.

Brighton ratfuckers

I hope Caucedo goes on strike and causes massive chaos inside their team
