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

[chrisg]

Can't see Chelsea matching Liverpool offer though! They'll just encourage Moises to strike until Bloom accepts their (alleged)90 million +add ons

He has 4 more years to strike then

This is why Romano should be treated as nothing more than an aggregator who sometimes gets a scoop. Caicedo follows Man Utd, Man City, Arsenal, PSG, Real Madrid, Barcelona, Chelsea and has done for as long as I can remember. Ignore him

 

[Hamilton]

His agent has been promised a very big brown envelope.

It’s a shame, because he’ll go from hero to zero with Albion fans because of this behaviour.

Sure, he should get a say on who his employer is, but he and his family are being poorly led.

 

[Bridcutt]

Respect for Chelsea but none for his current club (or fans). Nice.

He's doing the same as Cucurella, if not worse. He deserves booing when we play Chelsea

 

[We're the Stripes]

Mad that he would choose Chelsea over Liverpool. At Liverpool I feel he’d be nurtured better. At Chelsea it would be one mistake and the fans will be on his back thinking it’s Cucurella mark 2.

If you made a list of the pro's for each, the Liverpool one would be lot longer from a footballing perspective (in Europe, way more stability, Alexis is there etc etc), whilst I think we all know what one item would be bold and underlined in Chelsea's list.

I'd be willing to bet that Brighton, having accepted a bid from Liverpool will not accept a gazumping offer from Chelsea. It's not the way that TB & PB work. They are straight dealers with a reputation to uphold.

Its a good point, but given its Caicado being difficult and outside the control of B&B I would have thought any bad feelings and reputational damage from Liverpool and others would be directed at Chelsea and Caicado (if it can get any lower for Chelsea), rather then B&B.

Moises is a human, not just an asset. If he doesn't want to move to Liverpool, he doesn't have to. If your boss sold you to a firm in up north and you didn't fancy it, would you just shrug and go? Especially, if a firm in London were offering you a load more money for the same job.

My work is not being a commodity for a premier league club being paid £10,s of thousand a week, so your point is irrelevant. If he doesn't want to go to Liverpool then he continues his contract here IMO.

 

[Clive Walker]

could we just ask liverpool to up their bid by another 15m so we can accept and then tell Chelsea the new valuation. Just for a laugh?

 

[Thunder Bolt]

Believe what you want to believe I think Paul is protecting the player. Are you suggesting he is not in London on strike and is actually having a hamstring rub down at the training ground?

No, I believe the club have said stay away until all this sorted out. They did with Trossard.

 

[Smithy]

Sums it up.

The firm in London have made lots of noises but haven't actually come up with the money yet. They have got to show Brighton they are prepared to match Liverpool's offer, never mind the wages.

 

[Lawros Lip]

Well if that is true then he goes to Liverpool unless Chelsea match their offer and pretty damn quick as we no doubt have plans for the cash and issued the Thursday deadline to ensure squad is finalised asap.

Yep. He is just an agents mouthpiece.

 

[sparkie]

What if after all of this, Tony just tells Chelsea to f*** off and he remains a Brighton player...

Might happen. Tony could be seething.

Premier League footballers are very well-remunerated, of course. But they are still people with emotions and desires, not mere commodities to be traded.

 

[Bakero]

That's a separate point. You've got posters saying he's "thick" and "petulant" as he wants to live in London and earn even more money rather than move to Liverpool.

 

[We're the Stripes]

These are a hilarious transfer saga

Now wishing I'd finished making that Chris Hughton eating popcorn gif.

I'm afraid they are. That is the nature of their contract/employment.

 

[cheesy77]

Sums it up.

Exactly.

Plus he also follows Manchester City and Manchester United. Fabrizio is a total ****

 

[Mancgull]

Exactly.

I expect he’s on a cut of any potential deal with Moises’ agents.
