The Prophet

All the NE journos were saying the opposite as of this morning.

Milan fans gagging for us to go back in for Thiaw Also before I log out of a horrific app, a couple of Palace ITKs claiming we've already returned with another proposal. Same money, but different structure. They're probably Croyden's answer to Burnsie though.

Can only think he's trying to smoke out other interested parties. It's a one horse race at the moment.

In his last interview, Parish said Guehi is the more likely of the two to go.

We've bid for two of them and have a habit of returning for targets.

Should be a busy couple of weeks if nothing else.

Parish mentions "the order of the deal". Definitely feels like it's the structure they're thrashing out.

He comes across well, but the presenter tries to talk us down a bit.

Was quite shocked how disjointed we looked in the first 20 minutes, with a lot of the international lads looking understandably less than sharp. That said, we do tend to struggle against teams that play five at the back. The extra man makes them harder to press.

I don't see why he wouldn't start. We haven't agreed a fee, for all Palace know we could walk away from the deal.

Bit of an unsung hero. Never let's himself down.

Said it before in the thread but wouldn't be shocked if we signed Guehi, Trafford and Madueke on a loan to buy. Where that would leave us with PSR and outgoings, not a clue.

Alan Nixon reporting Vlach might be away on loan. Coincidentally, Trafford didn't play yesterday.

Craig Hope reporting that we haven't walked away yet and he expects us to return with another bid. He thinks it gets done eventually.

Is that Gordon winding their players up after we bag?

Based on little, I think he'll play for Palace tomorrow and this will get sorted early next week.

Possibly one of my favourite players ever like. Superb redemption arc and continues to improve season on season. He always leaves everything on the pitch and is so integral to the way we play.

Definitely this. When we sign a top class right winger he'll be forgotten about.

He was playing up top for a team with ten men, he got extremely to no service and on another day could have had two assists. Would have like to have seen a little cameo from Osula, but his time will come.

Don't think it was half arsed, he did a lot of decent work off the ball. Just didn't look match sharp.

He looks very direct, always looks to cross or get a shot off.
