It's Quiet 18 - Wanna ring the bell?

Or Tolmie is playing with us and being sarcastic about Caicedo they other day.

 

[Delphinho]

Oh sure - Caicedo would make a lot of sense, but I don’t think DM will be our priority at the moment.

If Palmer is heading out on loan (or as a sale), that would leave us very light on the right wing with Mahrez gone too.

I’d see that as way more of a priority than paying whatever Brighton will want for Caicedo.

Caicedo is more of a box to box midfielder that’s been playing as one of 2 deeper midfielders. Would suit our midfield like a glove and add some energy. Probably need a RW, but Brighton don’t really have a RW that is good enough for us. Mitoma and Enciso play on the left. Doku or Olise seem to be the targets on the wing. There were talks of a mystery PL bidder for Caicedo too

Enciso doesn't make sense, I dont think he's had a full season? He only played half a season right, I just don't see us putting alot of money down for a player who's had half a season in the Premier league. Mitoma makes more sense. Enciso has only had 20 appearances

We've tracked him since he was at Libertad tbf, they may have decided he's shown enough in the 25 games or so. I think his positionally adaptability makes more sense than Mitoma., but god knows.

 

[Chi-town blues]

Palmer to Brighton? Then we take one of Mitoma or Enciso?

Or maybe we are giving them two boys from academy for one of theirs or we are getting two players from them. Buy one get half price for second ?

Fair enough mate - I hadn’t thought of the mystery bidder thing.

Just can’t see it personally. In my view we have a greater need on the right than in central midfield.

And Enciso has played centrally more than on the left - and is very right footed. Definitely adaptable enough to play on the right too.

To be fair, its not like Mitoma has a lot more experience, he only has 13 more PL appearances, is 7 years older and played in Japan 2 years ago. I like Mitoma but think it makes a lot more sense for us to buy Enciso. Neither would be a part of our best XI today, but Enciso is a lot younger which probably means he has a higher upside and could potentially become an important player for us long term.

The one thing I’d say about Encisco is that he looks like a possible future heir to KDB. Take KDB out of our team and I do worry about creativity. He isn’t getting any younger, and it wouldn’t surprise me if he gets a Saudi offer next summer, so Encisco having a season learning from the genius that is KDB would be a master stroke.

Must be a freezing inside the kitchen.

We were in for rice and Bellingham so your answer is there.
