Bimpy474 Posted January 30, 2017 Share Posted January 30, 2017 They want £2m loan fee and £13m on top of that to buy. Let him stay at Palace. There's no guarantee he will be able to replicate his form of last year anyway. £15m altogether with the prices the way they are right now is a steal, he's talented and perfect for Rafa's 4-2-3-1.

TRon Posted January 30, 2017 Share Posted January 30, 2017 I think Palace will compromise. We'll probably still get promoted regardless if it doesn't go through, they'll have an unhappy player on their hands instead of potentially £13m. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hanshithispantz Posted January 30, 2017 Share Posted January 30, 2017 If Palace want to be dicks then let them. Just keep it in mind the next time they want to loan a player from us (if they ever do). We need another winger and all things considered £15m for Townsend is great business for us at the minute. Fucking about to try and get him for £13-14m just seems like another uneccisary risk given he's our only target (the other risk being that he's our only target to begin with). If it was the start of summer I'd understand us not stumping up the cash straight away but we need to get the deal done or go into the final half of the season with Gouffran still on the wing.

I wouldn't say it's a steal but it would likely ensure promotion so it's certainly worth paying a bit of a premium to get it done. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Theregulars Posted January 30, 2017 Share Posted January 30, 2017 I mean yeh if this means a total £15m they can fuck off. Giving them a full rebate is more than enough. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's bloody cheap with the madness going on right now. Personally i think anything for any player over £5m is nuts, the way the world is anyhoo.

Ryan Posted January 30, 2017 Share Posted January 30, 2017 Just need to bite the bullet and pay it unfortunately. If we get Townsend in it massively improves a chances of going up in which we'll then gain a ton of money anyway. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Menace Posted January 30, 2017 Share Posted January 30, 2017 I must be one of a few that don't want him back. He fucked off without even thinking about it, why should he come back as if nothing happened. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Foluwashola Posted January 30, 2017 Share Posted January 30, 2017 Negotiations innit. Bit of a joke if we're basically for his wages while he was there as well as giving them a refund, not that I care. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

He's been sacked by West Ham and England since then. His reputation is as a relegation specialist, that pretty much tells you all you need to know about his standing in the game.

He's never been relegated from the PL I presume he means escaping relegation and by this you know he's a shit manager because he's always in and around the relegation zone.
