Pizy 19,267 Posted August 11, 2023 Share Posted August 11, 2023 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!

robsblubot 3,595 Posted August 11, 2023 Share Posted August 11, 2023 (edited) nah it was the same with Sancho and even our own Odoi. 😃 Latter does even look like a PL level footballer these days. Edited August 11, 2023 by robsblubot Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mkh 754 Posted August 11, 2023 Share Posted August 11, 2023 Chelsea actively working on a deal to sign Brighton midfielder Moises Caicedo. Fee could be worth a British record £115m. Chelsea looking to get deal done in the coming hours. via@SkySports Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tomo 21,751 Posted August 11, 2023 Share Posted August 11, 2023 (edited) 29 minutes ago, robsblubot said: Why would Caicedo join a team with a bunch of kids and nobodies vs joining a much more established team with senior players who would help him play at a much better level right off the bat? Why would he choose Chelsea over Liverpool if the money is the same/similar? Don't think I have to compare Poch with Klopp either eh. For the same reason Kante came here over United the last time we had a season like the one before. One swallow doesn't make a summer. Also Liverpool are just as uncertain as us at the minute (they were arguably worse than us last season until we effectively forfeited the season reappointing Lamps) they have a defense falling apart at the seams and like with us a new younger midfield replacing experienced pros. Not to mention a manager known for his teams totally collapsing around this stage of his tenure.

Really dodgy stuff. Pretty sure Liverpool chasing Caicedo was all bluffing and mind games because we offered for Lavia and the game on Sunday. I'm glad our club didn't bite it.

I disagree about the level of uncertainty, but hope you are right. I think Liverpool just need to "click" again to regain competitiveness. We need a hell lot more than that. When Kante joined, we had an established team, which I cannot say right now. What a rookie move tho: you can only hardball a deal if it's not a fucking auction. If the deal is public and there are others interested, then you will have to pay up. What have we been doing all summer?!

Duppy Conqueror 1,584 Posted August 11, 2023 Share Posted August 11, 2023 (edited) Altho Poch played 4-2-3-1 in pre-season,looks like really we going for the slightly different 4-3-3 as we really not targetting a proper 10 and didnt really have one before the Nkunku injury.maybe was just using 4-2-3-1 to give certain players a look. But 4-3-3 (with it's variants) will be the primary formation. Edited August 11, 2023 by Duppy Conqueror Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If we bid less Brighton reject our bid, probably refuse to deal with us anymore and tell Caicedo he either stays or goes to Liverpool...now isn't the time for fucking about.
