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

[SeaGullBum]

I Still Believe the Liverpool interest is John W Henry trying to appease the pool fans over Lavia Hijack, but that's just me

"Oh hey Pool fans, we tried for Caicedo, but that Damn Brighton trying to get £100m off of us"

Bare in mind that's been the price for last 2-3 months lol.

If they thought Bellingham was overpriced at £86m as a base fee, they ain't paying £100m for Caicedo.

The difference being (since Bellingham) is that Liverpool have just taken 50+million for Fabinho and Henderson

Rather he went abroad, if not Liverpool, just to see the chelsea fans in meltdown and fib romano and ben jacobs spin the only wants chelsea tweets.
If he goes to Liverpool they are goinv to finish top 2 imo.

True but I just don't see it personally mate

 

[um bongo molongo]

Sky have just reported that Bayern Munich are allegedly in for him too!

If they were baulking at £100m for Kane, hard to believe they’ll pay what we want

Fair enough!

 

[jackalbion]

Hearing Swindon Town have entered the race, more news on that as it comes.

 

[JetsetJimbo]

How funny would it be if Liverpool pay the asking price for Caicedo, we then "swoop" (because of course we do) for Lavia, and Chelsea are left wondering "what the hell just happened?"

Not saying that's gonna happen, but it would be hilarious.

Plus Saudi's now want to buy Thiago too.

This all smells like Moises's agent being given an Ultimatum by TB you either get him a move by next week, or he's staying.

Exactly. Though I suspect the deadline is Saturday. These leaks much more likely to be coming from Caicedo’s camp than the Albion

 

[SeaGullBum]

Rumours supposedly circling that Liverpool - Caicedo news is FSG PR Spin for Damage limitations.

Perhaps. One thing you can be sure of though, is that Tony Bloom will be playing Chelsea like a fiddle.

 

[SeaGullBum]

What we can all agree on is, the longer this farce goes on, we CATEGORICALLY can not be selling him with a week left to look for a replacement.

This needs being sorted either this week, or early next, anything after that he'll have to wait till January or next summer.

Typical Twitter nonsense. Making an imaginary bid for a player Liverpool fans will want but don't sign is hardly good PR.

Is a ‘supposed rumour’ a rumour of a rumour ?

But that assumes we haven't got the replacement lined up, or not already onboard.

After the January window shenanigans, when do you think TB and PBOBE began the Caicedo succession planning?

This. Todd Boehly will be desperately seeking to avoid being rinsed for yet another dud like Cucurella or Potter&MediocreCrew by Tony Bloom. He's rightly wary. He's not unsackable himself. Tony Bloom, as always, just puts on his best poker face and lets the game play out. Heads Tony Bloom wins, tails Todd Boehly loses, whatever transpires

 

[Joey Jo Jo Jr. Shabadoo]

If they were baulking at £100m for Kane, hard to believe they’ll pay what we want

£100 million on someone who is 30 and likely to have very little resale value and they may only get 3 or 4 years out of vs £100 on someone who is 21, likely to retain a huge sell on value for the next 7 years or so and could conceivably play for them for the next 12 or 13 years.

Just because a club won't pay one amount for player doesn't mean they won't pay that same amount for another one.

 

[SeaGullBum]

Will be interesting to see if Moises Knuckles down and starts this weekend, or does he go AWOL and cry poverty.

I really don't want to dislike the kid, but if he doesn't turn up and refuse to play, that doesn't sit right with me,

Money talks, but his premium will increase after Luton. Chelsea are probably bidding at the value Moises was a month ago… his price has, and will, continue to rise the closer we get to 1st Sept… There will be a price on the final day, I doubt any club would pay it though.
