That would be risking 100m, no? That does not make sense from any angle. It can happen, but I would question their sanity.
You should be truthful and admit youâre a secret chelsea fan on here.
If he had a year or two left of his deal, then it might be a risk that he plays âsilly buggersâ or runs down his contract and leaves on a free. Heâs only just signed a five year deal, so Brighton hold all the cards. âHey Moises, do you still want to be here when youâre 26? No? Then a bit of cooperation wouldnât go amiss.â

They wonât be holding onto him as doing that is a risk everytime they play him.They bought him a couple of years ago for 5mp,theyâd be stupid not to take 100+mp for him now even if it is from chelsea.
Be careful, they could come out and accuse you for being a secret Chelsea fan.
I.m here long enough to know how to put them on ignore

Nah. @RedSeven has been here for years; his allegiance is beyond question. Yours, on the other hand, has yet to be established.
Itâs worth noting that fans of other teams who are honest about who they support are more than welcome here, as long as they donât behave badly, whereas fans of other teams who pretend to be Reds are soon sussed.

Actually, starting to remember why I took a 3-year break from here.

Hasnât this already happened before only for him to sign a new contract at Brighton?
It probably means more to Brighton in the long run to show if you want to buy their prospects, youâre paying the asking price and thatâs it. It does nothing for them to show their players can be tapped up, and force their way out for less than Brighton value them. Do they need 100mil right now? Is he going to be worth 0 in January or next summer?
Chelsea were obviously thinking they can disrupt the player and leave the signing until the end of the window hoping Brighton buckle to a lower asking price.
Theyâre basically doing what we did regarding Coutinho.
Itâs not just about this transfer itâs about all future dealings too, they wonât be bullied.

Or not, in this case.
Weâve met their asking price already, but they appear to be reneging on the deal. That does not portray them in a positive way, and other teams would do well to remember that in future dealings with them.

Maybe iâm being pedantic but wouldnât that mean youâve never being on here as a poster before?
But theyâve not accepted a lower valuation from ChelseaâŚ
Our stumbling block isnât Brighton itâs Caicedo. Brighton canât force him to agree personal terms with us. But they can turn down an approach from anybody else for less than our bid.
Day 100 of telling people that Jude Bellingham did not want to play for Liverpool.

True. But they can tell him that only one club have met their valuation, so he either negotiates with that club or he stays put.

Yes, exactly. Thatâs exactly where itâs at right nowâŚ
Happy to hear you havenât closed the door on me.
i think we should just walk away from this deal and let Chelsea have him at the huge price
there are to many red flags for me,
flirts with Arsenal, then Chelsea and Man utd apparenlty
(does he know what he wants? or where he wants to be)
signs a new 5 year deal in March(?) knowing that there is a big chance he could be on the move in the summer,
then there is his agent(s) who give me the impression that they are in it for themselves and offering bad advice
whats not to say that in 2 years time his agents will act the same if he does sign for us
