As I was saying, Lavia is exactly the kind of player we need....
I think Caicedo is exactly the player we need, especially with his familiarity with MacAllister. I think placing all of our trust in Lavia is a higher order right now than doing the same with Caicedo.
Doesn't matter now…we should just sign Lavia and be done with it.
They pulled the dealOregonAggie said:akm91 said:

I thought they should've gone after him from the start but he just signed with Chelsea, no?
So Chelsea is going to sign both Caicedo and Lavia?
If true, Liverpool just got emasculated.

Real talk? No one knows anything.
Who knows...that's why I love soccer transfer windows. There are so many unreliable sources and misdirection that you don't know what's up or down. One day you're talking how awesome it is going to be with Player X on your team and the next day, he's signing with your rival.jeffk said:

And now we have confirmation of a Chelsea bid for 115 million to accompany their 55 million Lavia bid.
Pretty wild.
Edit - the bid hasn't officially gone to Brighton yet. Lol. Just announced that they intend to make the bid.

So does whoever wins this match get Caicedo?

Helluva a pass by Salah for the first goal
Besides a few opps/counter attacks, Chelsea dominated that half.
Mo was NOT thrilled about coming off. Lol.
Point on the road vs a much-improved team while we still have no DM isn't a bad result.
Also made the need for that DM plainly obvious.

A draw versus Chelsea...what's new?
Third "here we go!" from Romano about Caicedo just now.
Oh well. Would have been a good player for us, but hopefully we have another lined up. Right? Someone please tell me we have another lined up.

Whoever that guys is, we're going to have to overpay since everybody knows that we're desperate and have absolutely no leverage.jeffk said:

Looks like Lavia will be heading to Liverpool though?
He might be going to Chelsea as well.
He may be going to Chelsea as well. Either way, Chelsea looking much improved (only one game though) and continue to make big moves. Will see how it pans out though. But it's definitely getting a little desperate now for Liverpool
Chelsea have spent an ungodly amount of money these last several years.
Brighton paid $4MM for Caicedo 1.5 years ago.
I'm hoping we go after Ibrahim Sangare. Very similar profile to Fabinho and we could probably get him for around 35 million leaving room for one or two more quality players.
1) I hate how the URL change of Twitter makes imbedding difficult. Also, I hate sending people links to X.com.
2) Until recently, a team accepting a bid meant it was a done deal, right? Or am I misremembering?

The fee is normally set first, then the player works out the personal terms (salary). I feel like it's always been like that but I may be misremembering too!
Oftentimes, agents/teams have already done some of the work beforehand with setting negation expectations but clearly that isn't always the case….I'm talking about you Caicedo! I feel like that is tampering but I'm certain it happens, just like when watching college football players committing to schools.
Let's hope he doesn't pull a Caicedo.YNWA_AG said:

David Ornstein at the Athletic posted about 20 minutes ago that Lavia also agreed to go to Chelsea. Not sure where the Sky info came from. It doesn't look like any other the other outlets reported that. I'm guessing we have to go to the continent to find a new midfielder (or two).
How embarrassing for Liverpool to get played by both Caicedo and Lavia.
We definitely got played by Caicedo's camp. But I think we'd moved on from Lavia middle of last week when we got our last bid rejected. There's been a couple of tweets about us making another higher offer to him this weekend/today, but those are all being floated by Chelsea-affiliated people.
It makes sense that we weren't able to get Lavia for what we thought was an adequate price so we moved on to Caicedo. Getting spurned by him might have made us rethink Lavia at a higher price, but I bet we've move on to whatever option is next. And knowing that we now are willing to spend bigger, there might be better options. Hope we find out who soon.

Since Todd's takeover Chelsea have spent 821M. And that doesn't include the Lavia deal. That is ungodly amounts of money.
