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

[Sarisbury Seagull]

I do agree that at some point we have to draw a line under this saga.

I hope the TB says if a deal is to be done then it has to be done by the end of next week, or we close the door. If he was to go we have to give ourselves time to get a replacement so this can't drag on IMO.

Agree a deal by next week, or he stays 1 more season. End of.

It’s only a saga in the minds of us impatient online fans with nothing else to focus on in the off season. It’s just going through a process.

Next week is still July with over a month to go until the end of the transfer window so I can’t see that happening.

 

[nickjhs]

Daft thing is despite all this debate, the deal (whether it involves one or both players) will be ‘undisclosed’ when it happens, with both sets of fans claiming their club won in the end…….

No we lose, I don't care how much we get for him, losing him is not a win.

Only another month and a half of groundhog day everyday with Colwill and Caicedo thoughts (which I’ll obviously join in with)

I think I preferred the “where is our 25 goal a season striker” transfer windows

Anger from BW2 at our slackness and wrist slitting depression from Zebedee, both of whom only appeared during transfer windows, those were the days!

 

[The Maharajah of Sydney]

Well did he go to the States ?
Was he on yesterday’s flight ?

I can see him being told to go back on holiday until this is sorted

Me too. Maybe we should petition the club to sell young Evan so we can get back to it?

To Chelsea, at a knockdown fee obviously, in recognition of their generosity as they try to be like us

He and Estupinan both joining directly from Ecuador duty.

If only we had a decent SAUCE. Where's ENREST when you need him?!

 

[atomised]

If they feel they do have to get a replacement in then I’m sure it will piss off Levi. There’s a rumour that they could go for Maguire.
Also reported that Poch has told him that he has to compete for a place... sure anyone does but I expect he feels more love from Brighton.
The injury for Fofana does certainly force their decision.

he's listed in the squad

It’ll be the best outcome of the club’s current recruitment/player strategy so far, so I doubt PB or TB will see it as a ‘loss’.

Whilst appreciating the transfer window has some time to go, it is obviously better to have players and systems in place at least a week before the start (IMO).

I would love us to put a deadline on resolving this….

Definitely not impatient re Caicedo, just think we need to ensure everything is in place for us to move on.

 

[The Fits]

Yup. a) football is a business and b) we have a very clear transfer strategy. His sale will be spectacular confirmation we are winning on both those factors.

The transfer window is open for too long. I'd shut it at the end of July. Open 1 June. Close 31 July. It should not be open once the season has started.

If nothing else it would reduce the collective stress of fans around the world!

Yep, I'd go along with that. And also ditch the disruptive January one. Sort yourselves out with what you need for the whole season and if it doesn't work, tough.

Would agree but didn't they try closing the transfer window before the start of the season a few years back and then immediately binned it. Or am I making that up.

 

[Harry Wilson's tackle]

On the BBC web page Moises is in the middle of the picture for transfers. Inside it says "Brighton reject Chelsea's £70m Moises Caicedo bid". Is this new, true or poo? There is no link to any text.

Losing Cucurella last season was a win, no?

Losing Potter was also a win.
