Would be hilarious if that was given offside.

That really looked offside. Can't wait for the semi automated offsides this season so these shitty camera angles and wonky lines can fuck off

Move onto another target sooner than a week before the window ends would be my suggestion. We don't know that they haven't done that but reports suggest we're only interested in Guehi.

Unal is injured for a few more weeks, they've signed another recently but he didn't take any part in their last game. They've been playing Semenyo or Jebbison up top, so they certainly shouldn't have the firepower we do. But Bournemouth were one of those teams last season where they were far better than the sum of their parts. Won't be easy at all.

Will be such an anti climax if this happens now. Can't begin to describe how done I am with any more news about fucking Palace/Parish/Glasner/Guehi.

What's the chances we see Kelly at CB instead of Krafth for this? I know he's left footed but he's actually a CB and Krafth for as well as he did against Southampton, is no more than a stop gap in that position.

I think the fact that Palace have played it out so openly has really fucked up their whole big idea of "I know something you all don't know, but you've no way of knowing if it's true anyway"

Glad finally someone has said it. I look forward to seeing Guehi sign later today.

A win would be phenomenal here. Let's go Eddie Howe's "I don't know how many times I need to say this" Mags!

That Hezze guy loves a slide tackle. Give him the number 3 and let the legacy continue.

Something we'll need next season for sure and obviously this season. But alot of senior/leadership group players out of contract and potentially leaving the club come next summer.

Guehi 100% is a known quantity AND more importantly he's a know Premier League quantity. Always a bigger risk going for a player from a different league. But also, £100M is out of the question because we haven't got that kind money to spend. Especially on a CB.

It's making a lot more sense now why Pochettino went. I imagine he said no to whatever batshit ideas they had for this season and they've brought in a patsy whose happy to go along with it all.

If we trigger that release clause I'll need to be negotiated down from the fucking moon. No way we have that kind of money to splash on one player. And a CB of all positions.

If Disasi is one of those 21 players Maresca "doesn't care about" then that would seem a fairly straightforward deal to try and do. Even a loan move would make sense as then we'd have a good chunk of cash to try and find a winger in the next week.

I think you secretly know the answer to this. Even if you don't want to admit it.

I wouldn't be benching Hall on the basis of his Southampton performance. He did really well in pre season and deserves more than 70 minutes before he's cast aside. Kelly will get his chance to play and stake a claim against Forest

Tapsoba is clearly the best option out of all the ones rumoured. Disasi would be okay as well, I think people would be far more in favour of him if he were coming straight from Monaco rather than via Chelsea. Especially knowing Mitchell's links there. I reckon a deal for Disasi is probably quicker to get done as well which may be something the club need to think about. Plus there's a chance Chelsea could be open to a loan instead.

Absolutely agree. I get wound up when people don't get jokes sometimes....

Always feels like a shit game against these in the last few seasons. Just a win will do, don't care how, preferably without anymore red cards though. And definitely without any injuries.

Think we might see alot of deadline day outgoings at Chelsea. They'll end up taking whatever they can get at that point.

It's a fairly big deal. Krafth did well against Southampton but that's because all he had to do was defend and clear balls away. We'll miss Schar hugely in the next 3 games. Krafth is a big downgrade.

Fernandez's touch is criminally bad.

Neville calling Mike Dean out on it. Sounds like he wasnt even sure what the law was himself.
