The Prophet

I'd shocked if it doesn't get knocked back.

Pretty ironic Wolfsburg feel that Palace arevtrying to low ball them for Lacroix.

@Jack27 Thoughts?

Possibly, but can't see Howe making three changes to the back line. Like most managers, he likes consistency in defence.

Think we might see horses for courses with Hall and Kelly all season.

Doubt it yet, he's just heading into the peak of his career.

Also, definitely some shiny new toy syndrome, but I'd rather sign Tapsoba than Guehi. He's excellent on the ball and a physical specimen of a defender. He'd probably be marginally cheaper too. We seem to have been linked to him for a while.

As much as I detest the way of thinking, next couple of summers are probably the peak tine to sell Bruno from a PSR perspective.

I don't think he needs the Guehi story to get people to tune in like. The general perception is that should be a busy week and a half regardless.

Yeah, he's very good.

Aye, from the Palace end though. Weren't we linked with both of these during the last teansfer window?

Given we don't usually leak names, this seems very tactical.

Seems like a very tactical leak mind.

No we won't. We have Bruno and Isak for a start.

This too.

As ever, I'll judge the window when it's closed. I can't imagine we'll sign no one though, a CB is imperative.

Still think they might sell Guehi tbh. They've signed two CBs this window, well provding they get Lacroix.

Centre back has probably become a bigger priority than right wing. If Schar picks up an injury we're fucked.

It will be interesting to see if our approach changes once Mitchell has his feet under the table. He's well known for his low risk, high upside approach.
