[Albion] Where is Moises going? (Chelsea - 14/08/2023)

[Justice]

Agreed. Chelsea don’t just get to finish top four because of their name. They’ve an overstuffed first team, FFP problems, a clueless owner and a severe lack of confidence.

The Premier League has Man City, Arsenal, a resurgent Man U, a Saudi funded Newcastle and Liverpool. Europe might kill us or Villa but probably not both. Brentford could easily repeat last season and there will be a break out surprise.

At this stage, short Chelsea odds represent hopeful punts from their plastic muppets.

I don’t even think Poch is that great a coach. Watching his Spurs struggle against a Brighton side containing Aaron Connolly was illuminating

Fascinating season ahead, my predictions Chelsea will be average again, Spurs manager will last about as long as Nunez and will then hire a Conte type big name or Ryan Mason Liverpool with current activity a similar season, Manure who knows. The £300m fairy tale at Newcastle will probably just knock us out of the top four again.

So your prediction is… an exact repeat of last season?

Chelsea won’t like that.

Ideal for us. City's involvement in the Rice transfer has forced Arsenal to bump up their bid. Let's hope Chelsea and United can likewise start a bidding war.

Argus reports all quiet on the Caciedo front looks like BS from football daily

Near enough yep

The Guardian saying £80 million should be enough for Caicedo - hope they are wrong on this one.

Chelsea close on Caicedo and keen to sell Mount to Manchester United

Chelsea are making progress in their pursuit of Brighton’s Moisés Caicedo and are keen to find a resolution with Manchester United over the sale of Mason Mount

Chelsea have just received 65m for Havertz

 

[willalbion]

No chance - he's outta here.

Betcha one English pound.

Yeah he’s gonna go, it’ll be to fecking Chelsea as well.

 

[Pavilionaire]

The market is beginning to work in our favour here with Arsenal bidding up on Rice to £105m and Chelsea flush with £90m for Havertz and Kovacic. With Liverpool picking up MacAllister and Spurs Maddison, Man Utd will not want to be left behind either but haven't offloaded anyone yet and that could take time.

Indeed, when you look at that Man Utd squad they over-achieved last season and look well short of mounting a title challenge. They need to start getting their shit together. For me, Caicedo walks into that side, even if they sign Mount.

 

[deletebeepbeepbeep]

£65m for Havertz, are they mad?

 

[Munchkin]

For what it’s worth.

Sat very close to Tony Bloom at Lords this afternoon and overheard him talking to the group he was socialising with:

Caceido has reiterated his desire to leave the club in recent weeks.

TB values him at between £120-140m due his age and potential.

Unless that valuation is met he has no desire or willingness to sell. More than happy to keep him for a further season where he only sees his value increasing.

No offers on the table as of 3pm this afternoon but he’s expecting contact from Chelsea by the end of the week.

Also spoke about Saudi influence in the PL and his exact words were ‘they could offer me a Trillion dollars and I wouldn’t sell the Albion.’

I think that's the twentieth story from Jacob Steinberg about Caicedo going to Chelski Cowboys. He seems to be the clubs mouth piece. Tiring. Nothing of any note in that article.

That said, I would absolutely hate for Mosies to join Chelsea. He could do so much better and as amazing as he is there's no guarantee he'll shine as much for them. I also absolutely believe that RDZ is a better manager than Pochettino. The same Pochittino whose Tottenham team lost 3-0 to a Brighton team containing Connelly, Propper and Bong. Not on the same level as RDZ imo right now. Money talks aye.

We don't want Moises to go (1 more season please!), Chelski Cowboys don't want Colwill to go. Need to meet you half way Boehly.

You’re a better person than me, I geuninely couldn’t care less where Caicedo goes as long as we absolutely rinse the buying club.

I would hate to see him sign for ManUre. He'd transform their midfield. Sadly, I think they know that too.

Absolutely.

Players come and go, kiss the badge etc., but very few truly care, we are lucky with Dunk and Solly, as hopefully they actually do care.

(Mind you, I thought Bruno did)

 

[gripper stebson]

Chatting to my mate tonight, an old school, miserable Chelsea fan...

 

[dazzer6666]

As long as we get a massive pile of cash I don’t really care, far more interested in what we do with it. Very, very few of our players are ever more than transient employees. When anyone refers to a player as ‘irreplaceable’ I always have a little chuckle. They are all replaceable , and usually upgraded.

Believable imagination.

You're smoking the wrong shit

TB doesn't reveal his hand.
