[Albion] Where is Moises going? (Chelsea - 14/08/2023)
- Thread starter Bozza
- Start date
Moises, you can play for Liverpool in the European Cup alongside your mate Alexis. You'll also be playing for a club that values you highly and hasn't tried to play silly buggers.
Or, you can play for us or Chelsea.
Personally, I've heard nothing from Moises top say that he thought he was going to Chelsea. I've heard a lot of people putting words in his mouth.

Given he’s spent the last 5 days in London and Chelsea have been after him for months it’s not hard to work out he probably expected he would be going to Chelsea, Liverpool 2 days ago were 10/1 shots to sign him.
Also people forget players might prefer teams for location, in London he’d be near many of his mates from here and London clubs - in Liverpool he might not have many connections and it’s 4 hours from London, all things a young bloke will consider, there is a life outside of football.
They could easily offer him a crazy contract. 250k a week for 7 years ?

I am light. Just pointing out that this isn't done and dusted yet and he isn't sitting in London waiting for a move to Liverpool is he, so it is pretty clear to me he was expecting to move to Chelsea on pre-agreed personal terms.
You ain’t heavy. From what is coming out, TB held an auction last night, Liverpool won. Surely, we won’t be accepting any more bids from Chelsea. I assume Bohely had agree to pay Moises’ agents 10%-25% of the final fee too, it’s hardly surprising that his agents are absolutely distraught, they just lost a fortune. If Caicedo has anything upstairs, he’ll choose Liverpool and get it done asap.
If Moises turns down Liverpool then we will sell to Chelsea.

Not sure thats exactly how I would like to see this money re-invested, perhaps 6,000,000 gyros and a new central midfielder?

Klopp just spoke on TalkSPORT and said the move is confirmed….

I’m not so sure. Chelsea won’t likely match liverpools offer. So if he turns down Liverpool, I expect he will stay (Yes. I’m still clinging) because now TB can say he’s worth £111m. But I honestly can’t see him turning Liverpool down if it’s them or us.
He said the fee is agreed .... Player hasn't agreed yet
10m is nothing to Chelsea ..... certain they would match. There's no way they will miss out over 10m

Only if they match Liverpool's offer.

Just to add I think he would be mad to turn Liverpool down so I fully expect him to go. A much better move for him long term.
Yup. Alongside a player who knows his game inside out. European football too.

Spot on! We've been resigned to losing him but the end result is some consolation. The price is right and Chelsea have been made to look stupid again. Sensible Chelsea fans will be gnashing their teeth but will have to suck it up as the idiot Yank holds the purse strings.Looks as if Liverpool conducted this transfer in a quietly professional manner. Compare to Boehly who clearly thinks he’s the big dog in any situation. Came here and totally altered the transfer landscape by paying over the odds on pretty much every initial signing. Then decides he’d go the opposite way and lowball all offers in the arrogant assumption that selling teams would relent to his superior business/negotiating skills..only to get bent over yet again by TB et al. Under Todd Ch£ls€a have unbelievably become even more farcical, but really couldn’t happen to a more deserving team..in general since Abramovich, a club by w@nkers, for w@nkers. Further icing on this cake will be FFP issues

He’s an all time club legend without a doubt but the greatest player, ability wise, to ever pull on an Albion shirt?
Has he been in London for the past 5 days? Lots of people have said he has been in London, but even if he is, why? It's a big city.

If Moises still ends up at Chelsea now, his mind has been polluted by his agents. Crazy how they can influence players like that. All for their fees they will get this season, not next.
Maybe it’s just me, but I don’t think I’d rather go to Chelsea. I’m not deluded, Liverpool are a much bigger club than us, arguably the biggest or second biggest in the world, that is an opportunity that will only come along once in your life, we can’t offer that. If he goes to Chelsea, we can offer more footballing wise if he stays. At Liverpool you have European football, and despite how some people view him on here, probably one of the best managers of all time, it’s a no brainer.
