Is it just money? Or why would Lavia and Caicedo choose the football dumpster fire project that is Chelsea over Liverpool?

Considering Chelsea's contract lengths, it's no wonder players chose them. No matter what happens - bad form, injuries - they're set for majority of their careers.
It also has the potential to massively backfire for Chelsea, we'll have to wait and see.
Because Chelsea's project is a lot more exciting, full of young talent, uber a manager that is known for developing talent, under an ownership that is willing to invest no matter what.
Additionally to the other replies, a lot of players (seemingly more prevelant in foreign players) have more of a desire to be in and around London given the choice.
Damn, Chelsea doing to Liverpool what they did to Arsenal last season
