Disagree, he’s nowhere near the quality Caicedo was for Brighton. He didn’t pull up any trees in the premier league, he’s a solid player but he’s not worth any more than £30m in my opinion, not enough in his game to justify it. I’m a bit surprised he’s gone to Chelsea if I’m being honest, can’t see where he fits in there. This is a good deal for us, a genuine talent they didn’t want to sell us, and we’ve got £30m towards PRS.
The fact he’s home grown I think has naturally given us a bias opinion of him, but I genuinely don’t think he’s that good, he’s a solid steady player, but his attitude makes up for his slightly scrappy game.
