Palace are making fools out of us by conducting all of this in public! I am all in for getting another centre back and commenting in public what a feckin A-hole Parish is!!

Don´t like Craig Pawson, only negative going into saturday

I think it would have to be 80+ for me to accept his sale. We would also be losing our best player from last season whoch would weaken us a hell of a lot, especially with the weakness we already have on the other flank...

I disagree, we need to improve the team just like all the clubs around us in the top half of the table are doing. I think It would also send a quite negative message to our current players if we are preaching to them that our aim is to compete at the top... but our tranfers don't show that! We need two signings (RCB & RW) who can slot into the first team and improve us instantly. I honestly dont think it is such a big ask...

Not sure we will see it but I would quite like to see: ------------------------Pope------------------------- Livra-------Schar----------Kelly-----------Hall --Longstaff-------Bruno---------Big Joe---- -Murphy------------Isak----------Gordon--- (might want Burn in there just for the height issue...)

It won´t be a travesty if he stays; hard working/pressing and still creates danger and space for others through his relentless running. Yes, it´s obvious there are better creative players out there and that to take another step up as a team we need a new RW sooner rather than later. Also might be that we can´t get a buyer/taker for him due to current wages/age etc etc...

I like Barnes, think he really suits our direct style of attacking football. He gets great crosses into the six yard box, makes really good channel runs taking defenders with him and is also pretty decent at cutting inside and scoring. Not really paid that much attention to his defending but imagine Eddie won´t let him "cruise" through a game... Absolute quality substitute to bring on after 65 mins to rest gordon or joe or whoever is out on left!

Just get some of the wages off our books would be handy; Hayden, fraser, lewis... A couple of "low" fee sales also; Dubs, Miggy, Targett

I thought the problem was that the greedy little barsteward wanted a hefty payoff if we were to terminate his contract, and at the same time save Southampton a transfer fee. Club did not want to be held to ransom by the wee cnut! Don´t know if correct but has been bandied about quite a lot.

It is obvious that the defence needed shoring up after last season and the lack of pace needed to be addressed. Hopefully Guehi or another quick centre back will be brought in. I also would like an upgrade on the right wing, in an attacking sense, as both Miggy and murph contribute a huge amount to pressing and defensive work whilst not being "star" attacking players. Needs to be the right signing as somebody above quoted; has to have the running, pressing etc as well as being more talented attacking wise... not easy to come by tbf...

Who said Schar was injured? True?

Also like the ginger argie midfielder brighton have; valentin barco

Watchin Brighton Villareal on M+ in Spain, guess who two of the standout players are: Joao Pedro and Jakuba Minteh. Minteh is a specialist in pressuring defenders and winning loose ball from them...

Hope he gets a goal or two! Would be good for his confidence and some debut!! Looking forward to seeing more of him

Anything below top four will be a dissapointment!

If we can go a couple of goals up in our first few games, would be nice to bed in Osula and bring on harvey for gordon after 70 mins... If we can keep everyone fit it is going to be a good year. P.S. Would be good to ration big Joe's minutes as he seemed a bit unlucky with niggly injuries last season

I thought Solanke was untouchabke last season for bournemouth, has taken him a while to "break through" but was very impressed by him. Has just about everything a striker needs and is a real handfull. Not quite sure if he dominates in the air...

For me; I think the most important thing is for us to be injury free or low injury counts this season. We have a really strong first team and can compete with anyone if an RW is bought. Key season for Tonali, needs to show he is the real deal midfield upgrade on longstaff! Defence should be back to it's strongest and strength in depth when the ACL boys are back. Top four and cup final is minimum requirement

This signing hugely improves our defence and gives us the thing that we most craved: Pace! With a right winger we would have a first team that can really compete at the top, and also quite few on the bench who would not drop the level drastically and would give a rest to those needing it

Top signing if you ask me... Premier league ready, seems to get better year on year and is still quite young so that eddie moulds him into a world beater. A top right winger and we walk into the top four!

Mbuemo and diomande for me. We know what we are getting for the RW and the CB can be brought in gradually

Agree with above, would like to see a more genuine creative player for when we play sides who park bus. Xavi Simons? Has it all

The times I have watched Leeds when they were in the prem I thought he was one of their best players. Reminds me a bit of Ryan fraser type winger, with pace to beat players and hassles in the press but doesn´t have a huge deal more. Would be great back up to a bigger RW signing

JESUS H CHRIST! NOELS HEAD IS ABOUT THE SAME SIZE AS HIS WHOLE TORSO... YIKES!

Some rags saying we have been enquiring afyer xabi symons, would be an excellent signing. Thought he was one of hollands best players, very creative and with good pace... But looks more left sided than right?
