Currently hunting for the old Lee Charley guide to “we tried “

The rate the transfer window thread going to be spicy that’s all I know

Still here I believe, part of our very own bomb squad.

Not sure Chelsea will play ball without some form of long term obligation.

Actually yeah, I reckon we get someone from Chelsea on loan with an obligation and go back for Guehi in January. We don’t take DCL though.

I’m with you here. We go back for Guehi in January is the conclusion I’ve come to.

Come next summer I imagine this is what he will cost aye. I reckon palace will ask 60m in January mind if they are safe.

Liverpool are definitely a team with the capacity to come in and take him, no FFP issues and they will definitely have a need for a centre half in the near future.

I think so too, but I don’t think his drops much or at all come January, when the window opens at the end of the season that’s when I expect his valuation to drop to between 40-50m.

I see a world where we get Guehi in January and get Chalobah or axel on loan with an obligation for next summer.

Hypothetical question for everyone. if in 12 months time our right centre back options are Diasasi or Chalobah and Guehi how’s everyone feeling about it ?

1 per club and 2 from PL clubs in total. Not that I expect us to loan more than one player. (Could see us doing a mutual favour for Chelsea with Chalobsh or Disaster. )

We’d need to shift 3 left backs and accommodate his huge wage. Probably not happening.

It actually might be mind. Since our takeover we tend to take a long term view of things I imagine we’d have a relatively free run at him in January and palace would also have the benefit of being pretty secure in the league by then and will also have a very clear picture of his intentions with regards to signing a new contract.

The silence does make me wonder if this is essentially left on ice until January mind.

The pl clubs choose not to close this, they had the chance and declined, it’s on the teams.

I’m sure we are looking at other targets and getting stuff sorted in parallel. You’d expect to hear something today though.

Uefa aren’t as draconian when it comes to punishments as the PL is. The rules are stupid to begin with.

Let’s give them the usual business spurs are the definition of flaky and not a team which should concern us.

Aye it has to an extent, ultimately the solution they came up with was one which benefits those clubs the most though. I think at this point the competition needs totally re thinking.

Window closes tomorrow night right? So less than 48 hours to get somethings done?

Yeah, i totally understand why as well. But ultimately if a precedent is set and it becomes legal matter you will always have a good case.

I’d imagine the injury to riad has given them pause as well as the lack of replacements.

If Uefa go down that path, as I always like to cite psg lost 600m euro in over 3 years and no ban.

Given how openly rigged this tournament appears to be nowadays I have zero interest in it.
