I completely forgot about the City match

And therefore probably why his stance against us has been so determined.

Yeah fair point

Parrish is probably banking on a bidding war next summer and the money they’ll get from finishing higher up the league offsetting being in the final year of his contract.

😂

Shadow puppets with his updates has suggested that all the indications were that we’d get Guehi eventually. Something then stalled (re price obviously) and neither us nor Parrish was going to budge. Like others i’m just baffled that we’ve let this go on for so long without a plan B. Now it looks like we’re going to be short in a crucial area and aren’t even going to strengthen RW. In a season when we’re not potentially hamstrung by European football in terms of number of games and where key players could potentially leave if we don’t get Europe next season that’s a major concern.

‘Assuming’ it ends up being back on, can they get everything done tomorrow? They obviously have to get the medical and everything done by a certain time im guessing. Haven’t some deals gone over the deadline but still gone through?

Me too. I’m just intrigued to see this place if it happens, just for shits and giggles 😂😂

I still think this is on……..

😂

I don’t know whose fault it is, or what exactly has transpired and I know that PSR is a massive fucking thorn in the side and a stick in stokes. And yes we’ve kept our big hitters this season. But if it is to be that we have brought in a single player to improve the current first 11, blimey that’s a damning indictment and really isn’t a good look for everyone involved.

Or Brett Emerton? 😂

We’re just rolling the dice more I think. Without key injuries and getting the likes of Tonali and eventually Botman back I think we can have a very strong season. Lose a few key players and without using the window to strengthen it will have a very negative impact on our season.

The windows has created a lot of negativity and halted some momentum. Extremely disappointing. Bigger picture however we’ll be fine.

😂

Pointless following them this season? 😂

Aye what a dreadful dreadful window this had been so far blimey

😂

Yeah as I mentioned somewhere else, they’ve stepped away from deals before when the price is too high. I have no issue with them doing that but less than 48hrs before the window ends with no obvious back up that we know of yet is ridiculous. Who knows what’s happened, was someone saying “let’s move on” the other saying “keep pushing for him”

Who knows what’s gone on but it’ll eventually come out if there has been an issue. Worse case scenario Howe decides he doesn’t have enough control and does the off to England. Let’s just see how this plays out though.

I don’t have an issue with us walking away if we feel we’ve made a fair offer. The problem is deciding this too late and leaving us short of a plan B CB. Lack of CB coups really hurt us before Jan.

haha yeah totally

Hopefully a minor muscle injury, need this lad fit though

I literally don’t know what to think about this one anymore, the idea of him starting v Spurs is absolutely epic but I’m so drained by the whole thing and partly love the idea of us going “fuck yous (Palace)” and throwing a curveball and bringing someone else in.

😂😂
