Proper pantomime close season!

£111m for Moses C. Oof. This maybe my new flop of the season entry

It’s a ridiculous price for him but he will be superb for us in that midfield with MacAllister etc

It’s a signing that has the potential to change the outlook of the season with his potential

It kinda strikes me as a bit of the same as Chelsea getting both Drinkwater and Kante at rhe same time....

Interesting that you think Liverpool will leapfrog Man Utd so easily.

Yep - think we are better in all areas of the pitch compared to them

I don’t think they will be anywhere near challenging for the title - they have decent players but imo their only stand out is Casemiro

Brighton have had a huge profit from selling Caciedo but I would have preferred him to still be an Albion player ,he is by far and away the best midfielder in the world and will only get better. He is only 21 but already has shown that he has the talent to go to the very top.
Brighton will have a huge task in finding a gem like him again ever.
As a Brighton fan it seems that a lot of talk about our now manager being the Messiah and making Brighton a force to be reckoned with to me is a little bit early. I can't see him being this all conquering man that has lit up the premier League. Potter had all the components in place for anyone to come in and look good. Just ask pep when potter was in charge who he said he would love to play for and it was potters Brighton .
RDZ has done well and we are in Europe for the first time ever but for me the jury is out on whether we can carry on in the same vane as last year as all the new signings are what RDZ wanted and not through the normal Brighton way of getting players .
Liverpool will win the league now as the midfield is now the best in the league now they have taken both of Brightons top players.
My fingers got a blister now typing so much .

So no longer turns coal into diamonds,just buys diamonds?

 

[AmandaJR]

Oopsie...

It’s madness that players of decent quality are going for that sort of price and that some clubs are willing to pay over the odds on players - it just inflates the market more.

From who ? Who is silent

I wasn't referring to you, Phil, it was someone else.

I wonder if Brighton will end up like Southampton?
Keep selling good players and getting new ones in. Until the new ones don't quite get there and it all goes Pete Tong.
Everyone thinks that they are smarter than the rest, until they aren't.

This is one of the benefits of all of the money in the Premier League, no club really has to sell players any more. If a big club wants one of your players and they are not in the last year of their contract, you can make them pay through the nose for them and that is something I applaud.

 

[GB72]

All rumour and speculation but the BBC website has posted:

Sky Sports is reporting that it has been told Caicedos is "having second thoughts about a move to Liverpool"

 

[Deleted member 15344]

So looks like Chelsea have got in touch with Caicedos team and have offended significantly amount more in terms of personal terms
