Kepa crisp packet hands? Seriously questioning your GK judgement

It’s not meant to be journalism. It’s a deal sheet that they update if there is any updates. It’s just a reference point to check in on every week. They do it for every club. It’s like a movie critic having a list of their five most anticipated movies. It won’t rarely change until the release date has passed or other new movies announced. None of it means anything or has any relevance it’s just filling space. Don’t get worked up by it 🙂

Reply wasn’t aimed at you 👍🏻

Why does Bowen even get mentioned? Cmon we’ve been through this everyone. He’s on a 7-8yr deal. New club captain of a team his partners dad is very attached to and just had another child not that long ago. Personally think he’s already reached his ceiling and has become a bit overrated. Regardless of that. Let it go…

So how they had a nightmare? Nothing has happened so the same stories roll on. We may doesn’t mean we will. Even then I’d say Osula was a surprise and on no one’s radar when last season ended. We are close to signing Guehi but close isn’t signing him. We want him. Player wants the move and agent happy with terms and Palace will let him go at the right price so that’s all the working parts except the price agreed in place. Thats what close means. We have interest in Elanga, Maduake so again correct. Doesn’t mean we are going after them. We may if we shift Almiron. We may not. So everything they’ve reported is exactly as it is just your interpretation is completely different to mine.

What does this even mean? You do know how the transfer window works don’t you? Never understand why people take transfer updates as gospel. The whole process is based on misinformation up until they are spotted at the club and even then it means nothing.

Check his tweet that started the Guehi thread and it was similarly out of character. Called it then it seemed like a deliberate leak/sales pitch.

Is the model footballing success or money laundering though along with stock piling players to navigate any transfer bans…

I was asked to provide evidence 🙂

I remember it being an open secret at the time and some of our journalists mentioned it in Podcasts etc but here is a recent one…

Nope. Unless you include Ashley Add ones and then it would have went over £17m eventually. Base fee was lower than Owen’s and Joelinton’s was fishy and an agent involved in more than one deal around then. No wonders HRMC were looking at our books.

I only recall once… Joelinton and I’ve my doubts over the fee being £40m. Almiron was less than Owen. The club lied that it was a record transfer fee to put shade on Rafa.

Should appeal. Wished we had a bit more of a ruthless appetite to do so.

You’re right in the grander scheme of things but i always feel the two I named revel in it when if they had club interests at heart they’d decide against the odd hand grenade and go with a different approach. He’s quite clearly made that fan quote up for example for his own use.

Yep. I still remember the days when you paid no interest to a teams form until after 6 games and the league table after 10. It’s one game. Chill. We’ve definitely been trying something different this pre season. Speaking of which i think last pre season helped us be ready for the start of the season due to the level of opposition. This summer has been a bit up and down in quality etc and players coming back at different times at different levels so all to be taken into consideration.

I know i get stick on here for defending Luke Edward’s but surely by now you all can see the real shit stirrer is Hope. The fact he’s from the NE just makes him a bigger prick IMO. Simon Bird not far behind in a quite a long list of locals.

No just the transfer window is open and everyone is after CP players. Only natural for him to be busy with DF discussing options and targets.

Love the end few mins. EH has built a great team spirit and camaraderie amongst the group.

Confirmed.

I could see us looking at Barca players last days of window although not a fan of the concept unless we are 100% on their hunger along with the French league. Any club in a bit distress for a bargain I’d imagine we’ll be sniffing around.

Heard nothing with regards to contact with the Freemen. Next meeting Xmas so might hear something then but I’d imagine it be out the bag by then anyway.

What repeated offers?

I’ve a feeling the ref blew that quick that it was before ball crossed the line. I reckon he asked them to check the audio to pull him out of his blunder and they confirmed he blew before it went in so he’s double downed on his mistake.
