    What the fuck is going on with his career 


    De Laurentus refused to sell him him when there was a bull market for him last summer and they could have got £120m or so for him. To be fair he didn’t know how badly last season would go for them. 
     

    The markets moved on and now no one can entertain the fee/wages he’d want in a move. He’s went to Gala as the other option is sitting out the season as Napoli cut him from their squad.

    Going to be harsh dropping him for Schar.

     

    Done nothing wrong.


    He’s been solid but both him and Burn are press triggers for the opposition, Schar absolutely has to come back in. 

  3. I think Spurs just did the logical thing and pressed the hell out of Burn and Krafth and it made it very hard for us to build anything from the back. 
     

    Schar is much more press resistant and can beat his man, whereas yesterday both CBs were press triggers, so his return should help that massively. Stating the obvious I know. 
     

    No matter how much they dominate, Spurs will pretty much always give you the sort of chances we got and thankfully we had the quality to take them.

    How does this work out for Palace? Maybe they get another half season out him, possibly a full season?  No way they get the 70m now. 

     

    Surely he is not going to sign an extension there. 

     

    I'm wondering from some of the reporting if he felt ambivalent about coming to Newcastle because he is being told that a Liverpool or Arsenal will be able to come in for him during the next couple of windows.


    Signs a new deal after the window closes with a wage uplift and a release clause of 55/60m and a gentleman’s agreement to go next summer. 
     

    For all we’ve talked about stagnating etc they were looking down the barrel of selling Olise, Anderson and Guehi in the same window. They might have bought replacements but that’s a lot of established quality to lose in one go.

    I get the impression (and yes I’ve asked again) that this STILL isn’t over by the way 🙄.  I asked if we’ve pulled out / if it’s over, and was just told “no”.

     

    Its all part of the brinksmanship I think, although I do think we’ll have other irons in fires too.


    Oh yeaaaah we are back in the game 

  6. I think the gamble from Palaces point of view is that the Euros bump to his reputation isn’t going to last if they have a shit season. 
     

    A player like Olise is less dependent on the fortunes of the team, so his new deal with release clause was always going to retain its value barring an ACL. It’s hardly a banker that will happen with Guehi.

    It's such a weird one from Palace , like they could take 60 million from us now but they are doing themselves out of it by asking for a further 10 when really once this window closes the most they are going to get for him is about 30/40 million due to his contract.


    Part of me thinks they don’t feel they could justify losing Ollie, Guehi and Eze in the same window to the fans and the manager as that looked to be the case at one point. 
     

    Feel like he’ll sign a new deal after the window closes and it will have a release clause of about 60m in it. 

  8. Been a real lack of any concrete info on this, from either side despite Parish’s TV appearance.

     

    Journalist updates have been pure guesswork rather than anyone have a grip on what is actually happening. 
     

    I do feel we’d have had a more categorical he’s not moving from somewhere which hasn’t been forthcoming. 
     

    We will know in the next 36 or so hours I suppose. 

  9. I think many of us, me included expected this to be wrapped up pretty quickly when it originally broke out of the blue. Since then it’s felt like waiting for Godot. 
     

    We’ve had precious little in concrete updates and leaks from the club so perhaps we have already walked away.

     

    Im sort of looking forward to this window being closed one way or the other. 

  10. I think Guhei himself is just trying to be professional and respectful of the Palace fans. It’s his club that are fucking everyone about.
