Isn't there a rule where you can only loan one player from a Premier league club anyway?

Yep.

Won’t play much here. Think Pep prefer both Rodri and Kovacic over him. Phillips to replace Caicedo and be a regular under De Zerbi? Makes some sense

I worded that rather poorly. I just think Brighton would much prefer cash to invest in a player more to their liking and philosophy versus getting Phillips

play stones there b4 Phillips as well

The ‘two’ probably just means one in each direction. My guess is Palmer/Mitoma.

Or Palmer/Enciso

 

[Nicholas van Whatsisface]

More likely to be a right winger to replace Mahrez (and Palmer too if he’s leaving on loan!)

There’s very little to suggest we’re looking at defensive midfielders - and I do think, with Stones and Gvardiol likely to step forward to support Rodri when we’re on the attack, and with Lewis far better in the middle, we don’t see another DM as a priority.

If it’s anyone at Brighton, it’s far more likely to be Enciso/Mitoma.

It's actually sad that when we talk about helping Rodri it's 2 CBs and not the CDM Philips. He needs to go, he is so below par

We supposedly bid £90m for Rice. Caicedo would make a lot of sense to me. Can play inverted RB, DM and CM. Versatile like Rice (maybe even more so) and IMO a much bigger talent. A post KDB midfield of Caicedo-Rodri-Foden would be a very well rounded midfield

 

[Gumzy97]

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 not buying anyone from Brighton only link is Palmer to go there

What’s with “it takes two” video if it’s just Palmer?

To further the breadcrumbs left by Tolmie, when asked for a hint today he said this. Any guesses? I have no idea who this woman is.

She sang it's a mystery , sensational and , echo beach ...this supposed signing definitely is a mystery!:))

Caicedo gives us legs in midfield, the same with Kovacic. Would be a really exciting signing if it’s true.

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.

TH is suggesting otherwise mate, which is why people are discussing it.

Mcteer as well going there?!

 

[Deleted member 81382]

My money is on Mitoma

I'd love him at City.

LW - Grealish/Mitoma
RW - Bernardo/Foden

That would be insanely good strength in depth.

 

[bell_mcfc]

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

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

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.
