TRC

I understand the concept of a squad, but if all stay fit there it looks difficult for whoever is down the pecking order in Kelly and Burn to very difficult to get in the team. Kelly just signed and must have had assurances and Burn is one of Eddies favourites. Defence isnt like CM/Wing where you rotate.

I still find going for a cb at this price odd. Eddie does not like rotating his back 4 unless their is an injury. With Guehi in one of Kelly, Burn and Hall isn't going to get get many opportunities if everyone stays fit.

This guy that is breaking all of this, he seems pretty good. Always see his name as one of the first breaking deals.

I mean reject outright, that a less than 2% negotiation, I'm sure we would work something out quickly

I think thats a perfectly fine final offer. If they reject then move on.

Gordon doesn't have a sell on clause, is an attacking player, we are a much bigger club than Palace where he has a chance to win something. Is also likely to sign a new deal. Its not really comparable.

He has 2 years left on his deal his stock is at an all time high. It will never be higher at Palace than it is now. Take the best offer.

I'm not seeing your point here, they put a 20% sell on clause to get the deal done, so now they want to inflate the price because they agreed to a clause? They are replacing him with Lacroix for 20m.

Kulusevski has been starting upfront for Spurs in preseason.

Olise was on the right for them, Eze the same position as Maddison really. Can play 8 or 10 but better as a 10.

I'd love Eze, but he is not a winger which is what we need.

Lets not disrespect Salomon Rondon.

Madueke is good, I just question his professionalism.

I agree, I just have PTSD from our PSR issues in June, I'd be fuming if we are in a similar spot this year due to spending 20m too much on a CB.

Injured a lot, and he tears us apart every time. Not sure if it was last season or the year before where he was killing us then tore his hammy.

In fairness they sold a hotel.

I'll bang this drum every time, but I like what Boehly is doing. Quote me in 3 years, not at the end of this season.

No, I've seen a lot of Guehi. I watch a lot of football. I rate Guehi, I just feel like we are paying a 20% premium on him. 45m + 5m add ons if we win something I can live with. 65m is insanity.

I havent seen a tonne of either, but I also watched Guehi get run ragged by Callum Wilson, Jacob Murphy and Sean Longstaff last season.

Palace want Lacroix to replace Guehi, he will be a third of the price. I'd be all over that, then go mega on a RW.

How much is someone paying for a 33 year old with injuries and 6 months left on their contract? You are talking 4-5m max

I feel bad for Wilson, its not like its always a hammy problem or something, he has issues everywhere. 3-5 games for Wilson out is probably 5-7 lets be honest.

I think Toney would have been the better signing, but I think Solanke will do well there.

I see your point, Todibo just went for that price and is similiar level to Guehi. If Guehi is getting a premium on him because Harry Maguire got injured then we need to be smarter.

If you can prove me wrong then I will take the L.
