If he doesn't care where he goes, I don't think he is worth our 100 million. If he will be forced to go to the club he doesn't want to because of 5 million in bonuses, Brighton will be even a bigger joke and some players already doesn't fancy them because of that. He has never been worth 100m. None of the 100m MFers today are worth 100m. But if we are going to pay it, just pay it and get it over and done with Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Which is what Caicedo provides. Him surrounded by literal kids or slightly average players like Gallagher or Adams would really be hamstringing him.

That's the funny think about the word "potential:" it's implicit "potential to be great", but there is the other side of the coin, which is the potential to be mediocre, or "not great." lucio and Vegetable 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I don’t think it’ll ever be justifiable paying that money for a central midfielder. Never mind having 2 of them for £100m+ but if they do the business will soon forget that. Not any of the £100m+ players faults, its just that the market is the way it is and theres a severe lack of top quality younger central midfielders and everyone knows that. Also I think if Enzo is going to become a truly truly elite midfielder then he needs the right partner/partners 100% because he still has a lot to work on. Particularly defensively and positionally. But yeah agree Adams, Gallagher etc not going to help either. Edited August 10, 2023 by OneMoSalah Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Pizy 19,286 Posted August 10, 2023 Share Posted August 10, 2023 So it’s all on Caicedo then. Need to hope a Spanish speaking manager and some of our Spanish speaking players (including a couple of his former teammates!) can convince him tonight.

Pizy 19,286 Posted August 10, 2023 Share Posted August 10, 2023 Sanchez was literally just around him days ago. We need to put him to use and have him on WhatsApp or whatever telling him how amazing Chelsea has been for his first few days. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Vegetable 830 Posted August 10, 2023 Share Posted August 10, 2023 (edited) Some people are getting so hard into it it reminds me of the Raphinia saga like he was our long awaited one and only saviour 😂 I wouldn't put much "incompetence" on the board in this instance - it's quite clear those negotiations are ridiculously long because that's the tactic for them. Contrary to people thinking we are desperate to get him at all costs, I think the board's stance is rather "get him if the price is within our valuation", otherwise we'll do away with what we have for now, just like it was with Kepa. Like nah, seriously, we don't need no Cucurella to "convince" the guy. If he isn't convinced to come here already, no problem, let him be a slave for Brighton, he ain't no Mbappe.
