For everyone of these there is a counter for a player who had longevity within the PL, football is not linear

And it burns every time
If somehow Chelsea end up signing him 
This window has been mental, and for once we’re not involved in the sludge at all.

It would be glorious if they do
There's a reason younger players are worth more, unless you think the entirety of the sports world is missing a trick.
The loser of this battle will absolutely have to pay the asking price for Lavia. They’ve told the world they have the money.
I wish ETH would go for a full Klopp style comment:
Transfers like that destroy football, these sums are crazy. But well Liverpool can afford this madness but we on the other hand can‘t join that circus and have to find other ways.
Brighton have had Chelsea by the balls man. We couldn’t just admit defeat and go quietly into the night.

"The day that this is football, I'm not in a job any more, because the game is about playing together," Klopp said.
"Other clubs can go out and spend more money and collect top players. I want to do it differently.
"I would even do it differently if I could spend that money."
Klippocrite.

Not worth this crazy money.
How the feck you get a sell-on clause on a £110m sale?
Caicedo looks quality though. Whoever buys him will be very happy.
I suppose offering a chunk more money is one way of negotiating. Don’t think it is the finest expression of the art however
Good player but my God that's a lot for a player coming from Brighton.
Oh my god id die with laughter if you put in a higher bid.
Surely now Chelsea know what bid it will take to sign him they could get this done quickly?
Sell on clause leaked by Brighton to nudge Chelsea before they make a new offer?How the feck you get a sell-on clause on a £110m sale?
I don’t think Todd’s going to go down easily. I can see him outbidding Liverpool even at this laughable price.
Yeah that's my fear, they know what it takes and much easier to get it done with Brighton than it is for us to convince Caicedo and agree on terms with him.
Think this is going Chelsea's way.
You’ve got Klopp pretty much confirming he’s a Liverpool player and you guys are still suggesting he could go chelsea.
Go go gadget Todd
Walk away Chelsea. This is crazy. Let him go to Liverpool.
he didn't confirm that. He said clubs have agreed on a fee, but they have not spoken to the player yet.You’ve got Klopp pretty much confirming he’s a Liverpool player and you guys are still suggesting he could go chelsea.
If there’s one thing Chelsea are good at it, it’s daft bids. It’s not over till it’s over.
You know he'll be probably proven wrong within 18 months and that the club couldn't bear an admission like that.
I say hypothetically because he has not played for them. Even if a transfer is logical, and fits the team on paper, until the player plays and shows it on the pitch, it is all hypothetical.
The same is true for our signings, so why should anyone else be an exception.
I wonder if Liverpool could keep upping their bid until Chelsea hit 200 million then Liverpool walk away (alone?) having had zero intention of buying him at all
It’s been crazy anyways you never know anymore let’s just say wouldn’t bet against the little man throwing his money about againYou’ve got Klopp pretty much confirming he’s a Liverpool player and you guys are still suggesting he could go chelsea.
crazier things have happened before players posing with shirt next minute signing for another club
No one will feck around with Brighton after this.
this has got to be a firmly tongue in cheek comment from Stone, throwing an extra 25M on top of Chelsea's earlier offer is hardly artistic negotiating.
I've just seen the Klopp comments and he did anything but confirm.You’ve got Klopp pretty much confirming he’s a Liverpool player and you guys are still suggesting he could go chelsea.
Because we’ve spent a billion in a decade on various amounts of dross we defo needed to reset and step back. Buying in from the PL nowadays is valueless it seems but the European market still holds plenty of good buys if we can muster a recruitment team of any level. Personally I think teams are fighting for 2nd to 4th places so the need to spend this much is debatable until Pep leaves.If somehow Chelsea end up signing him
I believe this. It’s about saving face and I can’t see why Brighton would turn down more money now. It’s not as if they need the player ready for the season, he’s 100 percent on the way. They’re suddenly not in a rush

I might write a book on negotiating and will use the Liverpool genius method of offering the highest possible price as my number one rule for success.
It won't be a long book mind, but I can guarantee you will win more auctiions than you lose by doing it the Liverpool way

From what I've seen Klopp explicitly mentioned that only our bid was accepted by Brighton and personal terms have not been agreed, so if Chelsea agree a fee with Brighton in the meantime (which shouldn't take long as they basically know what it takes now), it's a done deal from their side no matter where we stand on the personal negotiations.You’ve got Klopp pretty much confirming he’s a Liverpool player and you guys are still suggesting he could go chelsea.
Chelsea will sign him and Klopp will moan about the transfer fees for players and it'll be fecking wonderful.
