Don't think any of then are as strong as us and at least 1 maybe 2 will miss out on top 4, my guess chelsea and liverpoolI highly rate caicedo, he will definitely improve Chelsea.
I think if the price was right we would have been in for him, but 100mil is crazy money in a position we are fully stacked.
We need a more creative player or winger if we are signing anyone.
Going to be a tough season, Chelsea, Liverpool, United, arsenal have all made decent signings this summer.
Be interesting to see the flops this year though,
Always a couple of flops from big signings.

No because it's attacking mids we need not defensive mids.

I am amazed we're not in for Caicedo after being linked with Rice and Caicedo can play in a number of positions. Much better prospect than Rice
Do you still think so? Rodri saying playing so many games is not good for his health and Kovacic reportedly injured. We have enough in attack to cover, Caceido would be a perfect signing, he’s absolutely class and Pep would improve him as he does with all players.No because it's attacking mids we need not defensive mids.

‘‘Twas always the danger” we have plenty of attacking options but less DM choice, an injury to Rodri would see us weakened in that area, just think Caceido at £100m is a no brainer bearing in mind his age, quality and potential. It’s a lot of money but we’ve got a relatively low net spend over the past 5 years when income from all sources, especially Prize Money is taken into account.My post was before kovacic injury the landscape has now changed.
Chelsea have now just bid 48m for Lavia according to Ornstein.
Makes you wonder what happens with Caicedo now because I think every club has been priced out.
Why he didn't request a release clause in his new contract after the possible move to Arsenal in January is beyond me. Such a poor move from him and his agent if he wanted out this summer or next.

It makes me think another club is in for Caicedo and for me there can only be two, us or the dippers.Chelsea have now just bid 48m for Lavia according to Ornstein.

Chelsea are sailing very close to FFP issues so may be unable to go full on for Caicedo.

Chelsea will probably get both.
They are not getting Caicedo and who is the other club bidding?Chelsea will probably get both.
Also Rodri's comments about playing too many games is very telling.

And Tolm still mentioned something in the air dealing with Brighton?
Agreed we need to be wary of overplaying Rodders this season and if Kovacic does have a long term injury then we need to be looking at bringing in another dm before the window.They are not getting Caicedo and who is the other club bidding?

Lavia? or Nunes at Wolves?
I really don't see the Mitomo thing, is he really that good, and it would be an extravagant signing as back up to Grealish.And Tolm still mentioned something in the air dealing with Brighton?
For me Phillips will never make it in our shirt so we are still light in CM.
I was under the impression the buy back clause on Lavia doesn't kick in until 2024? As for Nunez surprised he is still at Wolves, but yes he could be another player we may consider.Lavia? or Nunes at Wolves?

Not only have we not been linked with Caicedo, there have been claims denying interest. Don't see it. Chelsea will pay up

Wolves are rumoured to be wanting Doyle as well, maybe something possible?
