Are you ‘in the know’ or is this speculation? Surely wages offered would not be so far apart.It was nearer to £50k a week for Moises and a longer contract

Some speculation along those lines on the Liverpool fans forum.Are you ‘in the know’ or is this speculation? Surely wages offered would not be so far apart.
Yep, there has been a lot of talk that the easiest way to get hold of Blooms analytical algorithm is to simply keep a track on us and out bid on people we are in talks with. Unfortunately our success in this area has been noticed and the realisation that it is not a matter of luck has brought in the leaches.Looks like City have hijacked him with a far better offer
The problem is the difficulty in keeping anything secret in the social media age. Plus the incentive for a player's agent to let it be known that Brighton are interested. Wages and commission will always be higher at Chelsea, City etc., so I guess it’s in the agent’s interest to leak the news. My hope is that players will realise they’re unlikely to actually play much, or any, first team football at these clubs, and decide they’d rather work with RDZ and get into the first team much more easily at Brighton.Yep, there has been a lot of talk that the easiest way to get hold of Blooms analytical algorithm is to simply keep a track on us and out bid on people we are in talks with.

Even if we do convince them to come to us being stalked by the leaches means the price will get hiked.My hope is that players will realise they’re unlikely to actually play much, or any, first team football at these clubs, and decide they’d rather work with RDZ and get into the first team much more easily at Brighton.
Doesn't work with a release clauseJust bid more than them then.
At least make them pay for hijacking our deal.
You've clearly never played poker, luckily our Tony has. If a club is just signing all of our talent, we just make 50% of our potential signings 'duds' and let City sign them once the rumour gets out.None yet - because they hadn't cottoned on to the fact that we were identifying wonderkids and signing them up cheaply. Now they know that's what we do, they'll be investigating every youngster we show an interest in and looking to gazump us. More money - more likely to sign. It really isn't rocket science!
And in terms of their ambitions, why bother with the middle man when they can go straight to their dream team of Chelsea, Liverpool, Manchester United or wherever?
Yes, I know that. Nonetheless, clubs will now be alert for who we are signing, and will quickly start investigting them for themselves. I doubt they'd be stupid enough to just sign them without doinhg some research.You've clearly never played poker, luckily our Tony has.

It's like balancing a hand, if you're always showing winning hands you throw in a few bluffs.
But the process is designed to meet the needs only of our club and currently and specifically RDZ. Cucurella is a prime example. Perfect for Potter at Brighton, but £63m wasted by Chelsea.Yep, there has been a lot of talk that the easiest way to get hold of Blooms analytical algorithm is to simply keep a track on us and out bid on people we are in talks with.

Yes, most notably lies, unfounded gossip, etc, etc exaggerated by sad people who live for clicks and like to look/feel that they are in the know.The problem is the difficulty in keeping anything secret in the social media age.
