For a team that spends more money than anyone else we absolutely cannot allow to be outbid for 2 main MF targets. It happened with Ugarte already.

Ugarte was different. The price was fine and agreed, BUT PSG offered the player twice the salary we did and on better terms.

The reason we do what we do the splurging on fees is because we make it up on the player contracts, plus we have already brought in well over £300m on sales and loans and add-ons, with more to come.

And yes, losing Ugarte gutted me. He was tailor-made for the EPL and our team. Fucking PSG have so many of my targets over the years. It is maddening.

Going to the gym now, when I am back in 2 hours I want Caicedo to be Chelsea player.

Frustrating that this gets done this way, unveiled at Liverpool, can’t start him with half a training session under his belt, big song and dance about spending xyz if we don’t get a result, huge added pressure unnecessarily.

The Rice deal is what really fucked us. Us paying big for Enzo could’ve just been a one-off that never happened again. But then when Arse agreed to pay £105m for a player that Brighton could directly compare their player to that was that. They were only going to allow Caicedo to go for a similar amount.

Now reading this 😂 WH had two 100m players in MF all the time. In reality they are together not worth that money.

It is up to Moises now. We saw with that new contract he is easy to manipulate. Come on Boehly, promise him something, take him to Lakers game.

How the hell Paqueta is 100 million now 😂 I remember people with FM calling for us to get him that one season when he was good, paired with Piątek (who is also forgotten by now), but he pretty much went downhill from there. He got three assists in West Ham in 28 games of what I see, so what is up here?

Inexcusable if we miss out on him now. He could very well be the difference between us or Liverpool finishing in the top 4.

Us announcing Tyler Adams at the same time they announce Caicedo would be humiliating.

That Paul Joyce person has not tweeted anything of that sort unless he has a podcast or YouTube show

Nothing would surprise me

What are expectations? No bidding war. Who offers more gets him tonight? PW has still contacts there and friends I would like to believe who would leak him things.

Liverpool offers 90m and we offer 90+5m.

I think if someone offers £100m straight up with no add-ons they’ll get him. That’s what Brighton truly want, imo.

Our last offer was 80m. Do not expect to come to 100m.

Shameful , we will be stuck with Gallagher and Adams , both championship players

If  we lose out on him now. Just embarrassing.
