Arsenal bid coming it today?

Or it's set for next summer.

I guess we can console ourselves by imagining losing Biss and Tross 18/24 months ago. We will find new heroes.

@Harry Wilson's tackle supposedly Moder is scientifically the most handsome player in the PL.

And then there was one. Looking forward to next binfest, a week off would be good though.

For Caicedo there will almost certainly be a bidding war between Chelsea and Arsenal which will be interesting. Arsenal the far more appealing club right now but Chelsea are likely to offer more. Arsenal would stop, you'd think, Chelsea seem to have no limit.

And our mate Romano said signing for Chelsea was 'imminent' just a few days ago. Poor Chelsea.

You do wonder how much advice players will take from other players. Pervis and Mac are both players who are a little further down the line, both love the club, and both can vouch for not rushing. Pervis, if he continues last season's form, will eventually get a massive move, I suspect, and Mac...

If he has another season like the last, and improves by even 5%, every club in the world will want him. If he goes to Chelsea, for an inflated fee, and on an extended and inflated contract, he could get stuck there for most of his career.

Interesting isn't it..not sure we actually do need a direct Mac replacement but we will definitely need a bit more bite in CM if Moises goes. Wouldn't be surprised if we have someone that none of us have heard of lined up. A purely data driven gem from a new market.

Everything he has said has suggested he's keen to stay, and his general behaviour. That's why this feels so tactical, getting in there early with a bid. Saying 'we want him, he wants to come'. Given we know he was originally part of the Cucu deal, the club have put the ball firmly in Chelsea's...

Does feel like this was part of the tactic.

Caicedo can go to Chelsea but it will need to be for at least £80million plus Colwill. Given it looks like Mac is going slightly on the cheap absolutely no need to sell Moises for anything other than top dollar.

Exactly. There is an exit clause of some kind. Why do you think we aren't hearing 'Liverpool have had a bid turned down' and why do you think we wouldn't be looking to sell him to the highest bidder or not at all?

You feels it's going to be VERY different with Moises. If he does go this summer it'll be an astronomical amount. This is contrary to my posts about the media noise concerning Mac but I suspect we intend to keep Moises unless the offer is to good to refuse something like £120 million- Rice might...

Gentleman's agreement or written in contract, it's the same thing (Though why even someone as sweet as Mac would agree simply to a verbal commitment is beyond me. Romantic though).

The elephant in the room. If there was no clause we'd be absolutely selling him to the highest bidder.

We have no idea what approaches were made..quite possible his Dad, he really doesn't seem shy, had already spoken to Chelsea, Liverpool, Newcastle etc.

It does if the other option is he either leaves on a free or for cheaper a la Biss.

And has reported multiple times, it isn't a minimum release clause. There's caveats that Liverpool are patently happy to meet.
