[Albion] £115m

[Weststander]

This has made my insomnia totally bearable! I’m bathing in the warmth of schadenfreude after all those appallingly arrogant Chelsea fans telling us that they will get Caicedo at the price they wanted to pay and that when we pointed out that it doesn’t work like that, their pathetic response was so often “cry more”. Well, Chelsea fans, here’s my advice to you: cry more.

On a random other club’s forum, praise for us, whilst noting Chelsea’s incompetence.

 

[JetsetJimbo]

I'm just glad it wasn't Chelsea. Their fans have been so obnoxious all summer.

Bayern was my preference, so we wouldn't have to play against him. But I'm kinda glad he and Mac will be together. I think that'll be good for Caicedo as a person - not just his football development, but his growth as a human being (easy to forget how young he still is).

Edit: Given how our "transfer relationship" with Liverpool has been recently, I guess we can look forward to re-signing Mac and Caicedo for free in ten years when they're grizzled old pros.

On the plus side only 10 more sleeps till Christmas.

…..and someone was digging PBOBE out for checking his phone as soon as the fan’s forum ended……

 

[HCxUK]

So roughly £2m per appearance made for us in all competitions, as someone on Twitter pointed out.

He's good... But that is absolutely ridiculous

 

[Muzzman]

The way we keep abusing Chelsea, I might have to start learning to play the banjo… their fans sure do squeal like piggies.

 

[Muzzman]

Ultimately, Liverpool have spent £140M on our engine.

Makes sense, £70M each for Mac n Moises.

 

[GNF on Tour]

I've been following this all day at work in NZ, funny as fcuk watching the realisation dawn on some Chelsea fans - gotta love Twitter.

They're our Pulp Fiction gimp.

Mr Bloom just keeps The Todd in a box, in his basement,.only opening the lid when he wants something.


Marvelous.

 

[Stat Brother]

Nobody can be surprised by this.
After all Fab Rom has been saying all.summer long that Moises and Liverpool was a done deal...




...oh.

Some Man Utd fans too, realising they could’ve bought him three years ago for £5M.

 

[wellquickwoody]

Trolling Chelsea on Twitter is going to be so much fun!

 

[jcdenton08]

I wanted £180m.

 

[sparkie]

What a great fee.

I can now start looking at #bhafc transfer on Twitter again without it being flooded with insufferable Chelsea posts.

 

[Green Cross Code Man]

Incredible stuff, from Gary Hart and the tracksuits to this. Just incredible for us Albion fans of a certain age.

 

[stss30]

It’s without doubt a phenomenal deal and Tony Bloom and co have done it again… BUT I’m sure they’d prefer all of this not to be out in the open, as I anticipate we’ll be looking to sign a replacement and all clubs will know we’ve got the cash in the bank now - look at how West Ham have struggled to close a deal since selling Rice.

Hopefully we can get/have got another player incoming - Andre of Fluminense?

 

[trueblue]

More so than losing Caicedo, I worry that Roberto will lose faith in the club’s approach. But, bloody hell, he’s a smart bloke and this really must underline that his boss is a genius on the business side of football. It’s not to satisfy shareholders or line Bloom’s pockets AND he’s loyal to his bosses. We’ll never be Man City but there can’t be many better jobs.

 

[The Optimist]

May - don’t worry Todd it’s all in hand, I know Bloom, me and the player exchange messages all the time.

June - No problem Todd, just a matter of time, they used to be my employer, they all still love me, I’ll just put in £5m increments.

July - Nearly there Todd, we’re Chelsea after all, that’s why I came. It’s in the bag.

Aug - SH!T - Todd it’s, like this. He’s not really that good…… However, they do have another player I’m on good terms with……

That last sentence is a scary thought.

That was me. I wasn't digging him out, I was pointing it out as an indication that some big transfer deal was in the offing.
