Topic: LIVERPOOL TRANSFER THREAD - 2023 (FSG posts = get muted)

[Sir Capon of Debaser]

Yep, think weve heard of another opportunity and bang its gonna get done. Whatll that be now? The last 4 transfers? Gakpo macallister and Szoboslai? plus this

I know Szobo was a buyout clause

Edit and Diaz an all, so 5

[Dench57]

This is what we live for.

[Flaccido Dongingo]

Big Jorg might need to take Moises to Ibiza to get this done.

Always knew big Jorg loved Cainan it.

[Draex]

They poached their manager during a season in which they started really well. Plus they weren’t happy with their approach for Cucurella were they?

And stole half their back room staff? Chelsea are scum, they deserve this.

[slaphead]

Whack the bid in and tell Brighton we'll pay them an extra 5 million if we beat Chelsea on Sunday just for a laugh. And 10 if Caicedo moons up at Bohely in the directors box
That's what add ons were invented for

[Romford_Red]

Why bid if Chelsea are the favourites?

Why kick a single football if City are the favourites.

[A Red Abroad]

Is Andy Naylor still denying our Mac Allister bid?

 

[Nick110581]

Maybe we have been talking to Caicedo on the sly ?

I would be shocked if we weren't right now

[Kopenhagen]

Indy has completely lost the plot.
He’s claiming Caicedo is talking to Klopp tonight via a teams call and that Mac Allister could be joining the call too. Lol

We definitely wouldn’t bid a club record for someone who didn’t want to come, plus then clubs will know we have the money there.

[Fromola]

Brighton would rather sell to us, so assuming we cough up the dough it comes down to whether we can charm the player away from Chelsea. Our main selling point is Klopp and there's Mac Allister who he played with as well.

At least it's not the days of getting Steven Gerrard to text them and then complain that they just wanted to move to London anyway. If he's adamant he's joining Chelsea then that's where he'll go but surely we wouldn't be bidding anyway if that was the case (if we're actually serious). You'd hope it's gone quiet with Lavia because we've been working on this instead and it's not just game playing.

[red mongoose]

I've read 52 fucking pages of the faff in here today. I deserve a tidy late-night signing. Fucking mingeJorg, get it done.

[Buck Pete]

Serious question

If a bid is made for a player. Are any, or both clubs obliged to announce it?

[Razors Razor]

We definitely wouldn’t bid a club record for someone who didn’t want to come, plus then clubs will know we have the money there.

The crabs used to do that all the time and they didn't have the money either.

[frag]

Just me who feels like this all could be a exercise to make it seem like we’re willing spend the money, and fab appeasing.

[Raid]

Why bid if Chelsea are the favourites?

We were nailed on for Mo in 2012 but Chelsea paid what Basel wanted.

Struggle to see Caicedo happening mind, but he’s definitely the one we need

Blackstreet boys were also in on the call, as proven by this still image.

Caicedo and Mac Allister with George playing Ecuador by Sash at the first home game. 

[the_red_pill]

L0L!

Seems their fans have the same issue with their club and Caicedo... (he does compliment us highly... hmmm)

He prefers a serious club. Do you know d number of months Chelsea have been on this? Literally using the entire summer to window-shop Caicedo. I didn't see seriousness in Chelsea heirarchy to close the deal on time.

So, may turn out to be a good lesson on closing deals on time.

That last line is so RAWK the past few days... 

[PeterTheRed ...]

Why bid if Chelsea are the favourites?

Chelsea are still the favorites because they have agreed personal terms with Caicedo and his agent. If we also agree the personal terms with him and his agent (it seems that is what is going on at the moment), we will make our bid ...

[BobPaisley3]

Odd thing about this is, Chelsea have been ruthless since Boehly came in, throwing money around and 9 times out of 10 getting who they want. It’s been out there that they’ve wanted caciedo for weeks now but still not signed, why?

[killer-heels]

By the way Indy has confirmed today that he was offered a lot of money to have his account controlled by the Saudi’s, but on account of his principles and human rights, he has declined. One up of Henderson.

[End Product]

Moises is currently logged on in the waiting room, he has been instructed by the club to ensure his charger is in his device.


Meeting due to start 2145.

I hate that term “serious club” but Chelsea deserve it (if it happens), they’re a vile club.

[Caps4444]

Well if Jimmy McCann is saying it.

Is this guy a legit ITK?

[TomDcs]

A few thoughts:

- Yes to the poster above who said we wouldn’t bid without some encouragement from the player
- But, regardless of what Brighton want, it’s down to the player (so long as Chelsea match the bid / terms)
- But, are they actually moving on from him because of the terms : value?
- What does that say about their commitment to seeing a deal through (and to Lavia if we are actually going to do our MF overhaul all in one window)?

[Barefoot Doctor]

Not to be that guy, but even if we get Caicedo we would still need a second midfielder IMO. Lavia would be even more ideal in that scenario, as we wouldn't be pinning all our hopes on him and he's a different enough type to Caicedo that they could play together.

Maybe Andre will be the second midfielder regardless. What I'd say is that we're in a slight self inflicted pickle if it's Caicedo + Andre, because we'd be at capacity on the non homegrown side which means a CB (unless homegrown) is probably contingent on a departure. Would also mean poor Ben Doak couldn't play in the Europa League, but guess that's not a big concern?

[Romford_Red]

I mean if you want to live your life like that, that's your choice I guess

[slaphead]

How is this going to get Southampton to lower the price? If anything, won't it tell S'hampton we've got £100m in the transfer fund?

Maybe. Or it might send a message that we have plenty of money but we will only pay what we think is a fair price and no more

[Too early for flapjacks?]

Maybe we have been talking to Caicedo on the sly ?

If we genuinely are trying to negotiate a fee with Brighton then we must have been speaking to him and he must have given us some indication that he'd consider a move. I'm still of the view that this is all Brighton and us working together to smoke out Chelsea to up their most recent offer sooner rather than later.

Brighton going out there way to avoid dealing with them, or just making it difficult (Southampton similar with us)

I know we've got the word liver in our name, but they're an offal source.

Could also be that we can structure more up front in terms of the fee with less add-ons

I believe Ben Doak doesn't count as 'home grown' for the Europa anyway.

I'm sure I read that somewhere?

Happy to be corrected.

Why be difficult when it’s a blank cheque which would help Brighton bring in 3 replacements? The window ticks on and Brighton have less time to get in who they want. Would have been better to accept the Chelsea bid and got round to spending.
