Aye it'll be this. I remember at one point earlier this summer odds on Ramsdale joining us were very short.

https://www.lequipe.fr/Football/Actualites/Crystal-palace-discute-avec-wolfsburg-pour-maxence-lacroix/1489130 "Wolfsburg's French defender Maxence Lacroix is being targeted by Crystal Palace who have opened transfer talks." Palace working on their Guehi replacement already it seems?

Fair play to him going the extra mile to prove what we all knew

Video on this from Downie, seems quite optimistic that this gets done

Aye, if we get a clean run at him think it'll be because none of the other clubs capable of affording + attracting him actually need him right now, coupled with the fact that this is the window where Palace can get max value for him if he's refusing to sign a new contract.

Apparently this increases the likelihood that Liverpool wont want Guehi. Don't know enough about them to know how true that is

Aye, doubt he's going there just to casually scout him then making a snap decision about whether to buy him based on his performance in that game. Much more likely that if this is all true MItchell's mind was already made up and he's just at the game because it happens to be being played while he's there.

Kick in the balls for Tosin if Chelsea buy a top CB and push him further down the pecking order Doubt Chelsea would be matching our price tbh if they do indeed have such a clause

Paqueta and Bowen precede him don't they? Kudus does look a good buy though.

Expensive window for the Hammers like. Expecting some kind of large outgoing perhaps?

Quite amusingly seems like they wanted Nketiah but Arsenal were dicking them around on the price and demanding £35m. Arsenal fans were prematurely celebrating the genius of Edu being able to shift him for that much, only for Marseille to turn around and say fuck off that's too much we're going for Moukoko instead

Far too easy that

Speaks very well and clearly knows the challenges he faces here and has the know-how to address them. Seems like a fantastic appointment on every front and let's hope we start reaping the benefits quickly.

Apparently he just made a twitter account and it's his first kind of social media account ever. Interesting timing... https://x.com/MarcGuehi13

Newcastle United have added Theo Benjamin to their youth ranks following an impressive trial period, with Charlton talent Lesecond Yeutembip also sealing a move to the North East. Theo is the son of former Leicester, Brighton and Crystal Palace forward Trevor Benjamin and has signed a two-year deal on Tyneside, becoming the latest addition to our U15s alongside Yeutembip; who previously captained youth side Barking & Dagenham. Yeutembip is a 14-year-old centre-back who comes from Charlton’s highly-regarded Academy. The rangy defender has traveled with the U15s to Japan this week and featured in a defeat to a J-League youth side in Tokyo today. https://www.nufcblog.co.uk/2024/08/02/exclusive-newcastle-sign-son-of-former-leicester-striker-after-impressive-trial/

Word is we offered Ryan Fraser to Palace as part of the deal and they increased the price from £65m to £165m

Liverpool not being in the race feels pretty significant as they were potentially the biggest realistic threat

I was honestly expecting them to be quoting £80m+

Always going to be the case when you're trying to punch above your weight and show ambition in the transfer market. Just got to embrace it and enjoy the ride

Brexit Eddie strikes again, going after another English player. Disgusting. Thought Mitchell was meant to stop this malarky
