On the basis that we prefer to get our business done before there's a hole in the team, the reports of sudden interest in Adams don't really seem to stack up.
Not sudden he's been on the radar a while. But Chelsea being Chelsea decided to fook with the deal.

How do they not add up? Moises is off.
Erm, because "on the basis that we like to get our business done BEFORE there's a hole in the team" why would we not have made a move for him earlier in the window, knowing full well there were going to be very big bids in store for Caicedo?

I guess because Chelsea signed our main target and then tried to sign our second. We probably genuinely thought nobody would pay over 100 either.

Out of interest how does a medical actually work if the player is injured? “Pop on the treadmill for us, actually don’t bother!”
If you can walk in straight line, look right then left, and your tackle appears okay to the 70-year old nurse when you cough - you're in. That's my main memory of school medicals.

Not being awkward. Who were those two midfield targets? I can’t see anyone on their incoming transfers that fits that description but maybe I’m missing something.

Tyler Adams who they've just pulled, and Lesley Ugochukwu.

It’d be interesting to see if Ugochukwu was ever a target as that didn’t seem to be mentioned anywhere before Chelsea signed him. Maybe he was. As for Adams, who knows? Again, if we were that keen on him, I’m surprised we didn’t make some effort to get him in early with Caicedo’s departure flagged up since the end of last season.
