Ed002 if I may ask?
As things stand chelsea seem to hold a strong interest in Adams, caicedo and lavia in your opinion is them signing all 3 on the cards? I belive reports saying Adams release clause been activated by them and we know strong interest in caicedo has been there all summer and reports saying a bid made or about to be made for Lavia. Basically I'm asking do you think it will be 2 from the 3 or we looking like chelsea want all 3?

Thanks.

{Ed002's Note - Adams has now completed his medical and is subject to WP and International Clearance. Lavia has been of long-term interest to Chelsea. They have reached the limit with Caicedo and will not pay the extra Brighton are asking.

Chelsea have spent the summer with a plan to recruit 2 DM players and have already added one (who will be loaned out I think) - so they still need two. They have lost Jorginho and Kante (who Caicedo is seen as the replacement for) together with versatile CM/DM players like Loftus Cheek, loanee Zakaria, and are possibly going to lose another CM player and a versatile CB who can also play DM, so signing all three would not be a complete shock, but unlikely whilst they are still looking to add other players.}

Really appreciate response ed002. I know a lot of us lfc fans (sometimes so called fans) don't like what you got to say at times but I would like to think 99% of us appreciate the input you have here. ?.

Ed2 - are Chelsea need Brighton to lower their asking price to make a transfer work?

Also what good does handing in a transfer request do for a player who wants to go?

{Ed002's Note - Handing in a transfer request loses the player his 5% of the transfer fee. Chelsea and Brighton are not in agrement over the price. If Liverpool do want to make this huge offer to out bid Chelsea then they should be able to sign MC.}
