This just sounds like tit for tat nonsense to me. We all know Chelsea want Caicedo and we want Lavia. Sounds like one club sniffed around the other's player, just for nuisance value and to drive the other to overpay, and then the other did the same in retaliation. We might have been in cahoots with. Brighton to keep them sweet after taking Mac Alister for less than he's worth.
Not clear who went first but my money would be on us being the "tit".
Did you just say Chelsea have been sniffing round our Lavia????
