Its a bit weird tho. This morning we heard that we are actively working on Adams and now Lavia out of a sudden as well? Dont tell me Caicedo wont happen 

Sounds like we're trying to force Brighton's hand a bit, letting them know that we're ready to sign Lavia for way less than Caicedo. 

I still see Lavia ending up at Liverpool though, there's no way they bid 45 million and then not match 48 million.

I mean it would be a big luxury but I kinda feel like Enzo, Caicedo, Lavia, Santos would be a bit too much for a non Europe season. Especially if u consider Lavia and Santos' age, they still need a lot of playtime to develope

Non European season just gives them time to gel as a team, not necessarily a bad thing, still have fa and league cup games.

Caicedo AND Lavia?

This is crazy.... and I would love it

Could open up the possibility of Enzo playing further up the pitch to cover Nkunku's injury 🤔

I really really hope not.

While he technically can do it it would be a total waste of the game dictating qualities he has.

enzo + santos + caicedo + lavia would be insane

Sure, but still feel like Santos and Lavia could be starter for a lot of other good teams.

Imagine being a Liverpool fan and hearing this news. They are only 5m short of Southamptons valuation and they are talking for weeks

Either that or we're changing shape to 4-3-3 which just wouldn't make sense after a full preseason of 4-2-3-1...Very odd, but I'd still absolutely love it if we took him right from under Liverpool's noses and still got Caicedo

[Special Juan 28,096]

Lavia has nothing to do with Caicedo, it’s like moving chess pieces. Gallagher will go, watch this space

would be funny if we end up with lavia and adamas. 

[Gundalf 805]

With the players we have, the players that might still come and with the loans, we are building a team that could be without any transfers for years.

Anything in midfield after we secure Caicedo is icing on the cake. Just make sure to get him in first and foremost. 

Getting Caicedo AND Lavia would make this a historically insane transfer window. But it seems almost impossible to believe.

Unless there’s some crazy agents fees involved that we’d pay and Liverpool refuse to, I don’t understand why Liverpool would be okay offering £46m but back out at £48m. It makes zero sense.

[Gundalf 805]

Surely Southampton wont aceept tho. They will at least wait for Liverpools response and hope for a bidding war.
