It feels like a lazy comparison to make, but from that compilation, he genuinely is very like Yves Bissouma. Same long-legged ability to win the ball on the stretch. Same ability to step away from opponents in a couple of strides. Same excellent awareness of space.

Looks a prospect :clap2:

Agreed, from that clip* he has a lot of Biss-ability about him - can't wait to see him in the blue and white :)

Let's hope we get to see him alongside Biss, and not instead of him.

*yes, I know these clips are heavily and highly selectively edited, we don't really know the standard of opposition, etc, etc

My WIFE was born at Pembury :angry:

So weird you said that as after I typed that I turned to my Mrs and asked her as had a feeling she was - but thankfully no Kentish blood in her :lol: apologies to your wife :kiss:

God, 19 is young to be half a world away and among strangers.

Let's take good care of the lad.

He does look good, though so do most players on their video reels, here's hoping.........

What do you reckon the plan is? Biss to be sold for circa 40-50 mill, to fund striker and Caicedo and Moder will be the new main men in centre mid?

Very exciting.

GP confirms no plans to send our new recruit out on loan.

This is the best place for him right now. Taking things slowly. Loads of Spanish speakers, loads of support. Way too much at risk if we send him somewhere on loan right now.

Only just looked at his show reel he looks an exciting prospect but he's young and some of those lunge tackles will result in injury over here on a cold wet pitch, I would not be surprised if we don't see him play for some time

Excellent news - at age 19 GPott has time to work with the lad just like he has with Lamptey
Might this be the Bissouma succession plan evolving?
They both look similar or is MC more of an attacking midfielder and Biss defensive?
Maybe it's the Gross / Lallana succession plan but I doubt we'll be cashing in on either of them any time soon [market value].

Is it just me or are we now beginning to get well stocked with young potential at this club?
From what I read, Caicdeo is more of a box to box midfielder now (he started off as a DM). I think he would fit in alongside Bissouma quite nicely, as he could play box to box, or as a holding DM if Potter wants 2 holding mifielders.

Caicedo is such an exciting prospect but I can't help feeling the club have made a mistake in not moving on Davy Propper.

Moder and Caicedo are international players too, as is Alzate, while Bissouma, Gross and White have all done well in midfield too.

No headers in his show reel. Caicedo out.

Actually, he not only looks the real deal, but being an international at 19, he obviously is the real deal. What. A. Signing.
