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

[Harry Wilson's tackle]

It was patently obvious with his body language at the awards dinner 6 days ago, don't get me wrong I’d love him to stay but if he wants out we need to get rid ASAP for the sake of the atmosphere in the dressing room.

Sad to hear. Oh well. Big money incoming and on we trot.

Hope you are enjoying the summer

 

[Sheebo]

f*** off you rat, go finger Boely, bunch of tossers the lot of ya. You literally know f*** all about us and f*** all about football. Your club is everything that is wrong with modern football.

Come on… we all know we can learn from these Chelsea ‘fans’ and their club. We just need to copy them and their strategies or like he says - we won’t attract any players. We’re completely playing with our whole future as a football club by not lowering our valuation to suit Chelsea FC. It’s weird it wasn’t like this when we wanted Colwill back though.

 

[Neville's Breakfast]

The situation is in danger of turning into something of a circus for Albion. The player clearly doesn't want to be at the club, Bloom has allegedly given his word the lad can leave, Chelsea have offered a more than reasonable amount, and yet still the club are dragging this out to a very painful conclusion. This farce is all on the Brighton board. Nobody else to blame.

One thing is for sure, this will alert every single promising young player and their respective agent on how Bloom intends to operate moving forward. In future, Bloom might find he's having significantly more difficultly in enticing wunderkinder to the South Coast, given the choice, in light of how Moises Caicedo has been treated. He's playing poker with Brighton's future for the sake of ~£20m and it's a dangerous game. A very dangerous game indeed.

Very funny. Still carrying on like a needy Leeds fan ? You haven’t told us how many trophies you’ve won for a while. I think it’s fair to say that nobody on here really cares what you plastics think.

I'll put "/s" after it next time so I don't need to explain the sarcasm. The "mystery Saudi bid" was all part of the circus - and it was as clear as day all along.

If I'm wrong, then why hadn't the transfer been completed already? The long it goes on the weaker Tony Blooms hand would appear to be.

Weaker he would appear hahahahah weak means accepting SHIT bids!

Because Chelsea (I won’t say ‘you’ because you aren’t proper Chelsea) haven’t paid the price. Now f*** off.

This ignores the other major deals the Albion have done for Ben White, Ali Mac, Dan Burn, Cucurella, Bissouma and Trossard where the club asked a fair price and did not stand in the players' way.

The Albion value Caicedo at £100million, which is bang on if you consider his age, experience and the Declan Rice / Enzo Fernandez fees. Chelsea were taking the piss making a £70 mill bid - the amount that was rejected in January from Arsenal since which time his stock has only grown. If Tony is feeling sorry for the lad and Chelsea get him for £90 mill they'd have got a bargain.

 

[Comrade Sam]

Chelsea act like a power hungry stalker, deciding the victim is theirs. Yet again a transfer window ends with basket case power hungry clubs, awash with dirty money, desperately trying to come up with a last minute plan. These financial institutions just see Brighton as a convenient place to find players/managers/coaches/scouts/analysts etc that have been sourced, developed and primed for top six. Do they ever think about what they're going to need in 6 months or 2 years. Just drive a new car into the ground and buy another next week. It makes me laugh how Chelsea sites talk about putting together a top team for Poch. Their Saudi accounting con that cleared their books saw a squad full of players leave, that a year ago every club in the world would have climbed over their grannie to buy - now just tossed aside. Why can't we just prepare for the next season without these vultures hovering around with just days till the season starts.

 

[Neville's Breakfast]

It, s a continual disappointment to me, that our moderators consistently refuse to ban trolls on a Brighton football club supporters forum.

I can only assume that Bozza needs the click bait it generates.

A poor excuse.

Absolutely. I’ve just checked in after a very pleasant evening and I’m faced with a ‘Brighton’ board that resembles some teenage Facebook mess.

 

[Greg Bobkin]

All of this shit is why I can't stand the pantomime that surrounds the modern day transfer window.

No-one in the media actually knows (or is being honest) about:
What Caicedo is thinking/doing
What the Albion stance is
Whether there was Brighton training today
If Caicedo (and Kudus, for that matter) is causing 'trouble' with the transfers

But they are all quite happy to spout a load of guff that sucks fans in and has them hanging off every word!

Twats.

I guess I’ve refused to play quite a few times then….

Moises Caicedo misses Brighton training and is said to be frustrated over club's transfer stance

Chelsea target Moises Caicedo misses training on Monday as sources close to the player say he is frustrated over Brighton's transfer stance.

[Bridcutt]

IF the rumours are true, then yes, he is a rat and an greedy one at that! But let's see if this proves to be true or not. If he is with us at the start of the season, and it turns out this happened and he didn't get his move. He will be getting a big old BOOO when his name is read out, until I feel he has made up for it by getting his head down and being professional.

There's a whole cottage industry surrounding the transfer window. What good does it do? Does it actually produce anything of value? Increase our GDP etc?

And it's getting worse. Or at least has got worse since we started to do well and have had players who are in demand.

It's all bit of a shitshow really.

 

[Thunder Bolt]

Sadly the club themselves have put us in this position stating that they will not stand in any players way if a more prestigious club comes in. The players then kick off when things start to stall on any outgoing move. McCallister would've done the same if there wasn't the release clause inserted into his new contract.
The clubs mentality needs to change as this will carry on until there are no assets left

In what way is Chelsea more prestigious? They aren’t. They’re just another club that got foreign money and bought success.
If you had a car worth 10K, would you sell it for 7K? Why woul you expect Bloom to do the same?

 

[NorthstandRacoon]

Chill out. It makes it fun rather than boring natter. Bet you clap goals rather than cheer....

Hmmm BBC reporting it means there may well be substance in this. Oh dear. But they didn't train today?

Not seen you so rude on NSC, er, ever.

Top work!

And people wonder why some people earning under £150K vote conservative? It's because they know their place.

And imagine they know everyone else's

 

[Perry's Tracksuit Bottoms]

My mate Jake bumped into Caicedo and Milner in the Carpetright in Newhaven earlier.
Apparently Caicedo's fuming, and is going to tell all his friends back home never to sign with Brighton.

Not sure this can be true. Don't you need a visa to get onto the island?

Actually I might be thinking of fludes. Lots of carpets in Newhaven. As you were.
