Based on that?

Hope doesn’t have impact on Guehi leaving 

[ponsaelius]

No way they would sell both of them I don't think.

I’d be amazed if they sold both mind. However with Carlos close to going to Fulham, maybe this would end their interest in Andersen.

Would be so good 

[Whitley mag]

Adam Daghim seen him mentioned on Twitter as a prospect, this is the type of player we should be looking to take a punt on instead of giving the likes of Chelsea 40 million for Madueke.

The Mirror are the worst for clickbait shite. Look at the delta between the headline and the actual content in your typical Simon Bird article.

IF they get close to 40m for Andersen then they won’t sell Guehi for anything less than 65m to us, if at all.

This cunt fucking signed yet ?

Get it done

Hopefully we get a conclusion to this one way or the other before the end of the week. As much as I like Guehi there are other options at CB. If Palace are prepared to take a big financial hit by not selling him in this window then fair enough.

[nufc4eva]

I think it will get done by next weekend and likely a right winger on a loan to buy later this month, need to try and shift a couple players out. Would expect Dubrvka, Trippier at least to go.

Fab Tweeted last night that they've been working on it for weeks.

 

It's a total myth we take longer than other sides. It just depends on the deal and how early the press get hold of it.

 

 

 

Mate, I'm 60 years old and have followed Newcastle for 50 years.

It absolutely isn't a myth. We've always, historically, taken ages to get deals done. It's very rare to get a deal done quickly like Isak for example. It was us before, during and after Ashley. As I said, the Newcastle way.

They activated his release clause tbf

Not sure they did, but they paid 30 upfront to Bournemouth.

[Chicken Dancer]

Is it not just a case of our transfers that are played out in public seem like they take a while? Which I imagine is like other teams too - look at Man Utd with De Ligt. Been a couple of weeks since interest was first mooted I think. 
 

Isak transfer seemed to happen fast as the news broke shortly before he was our player. For all we know they could have been negotiating with Sociedad for two months just not in the public eye. 
 

Keeping a deal hush will be incredibly hard. It will rely on absolutely everybody involved in the deal keeping their mouths shut, including mates & family members of the player/agent involved. This has likely leaked from the Palace side to drum up interest, no?

[HayDen Traces]

I genuinely dont think we take longer than other clubs, just feels that way as we're closer to the toon.

 

Go on any fans forums of other clubs and they complain about all the same shit we do

Exactly. 

[Ikon]

Scott Wilson saying that CP refusing to budge on their price for Guehi. At least someone else on X is saying that’s what SW says.

Reading between the lines, it sounds like they're haggling about how much Palace receive up front.

[Shadow Puppets]

The only update I can offer is that, as of post-match yesterday, they were still very confident that it’s imminent 🤷‍♂️

Is the only question that needs asked

[junkhead]

Think I'd rather we act hard and stop negotiations if they're twisting our hands too much. Preferably 'tapping up' the agent/player for future windows in the process. Doesn't look like any top club is interested at the mentioned amounts so could be doable.

Botman's rehabilitation is apparently going well. We can manage with Schar, Burn, Kelly and Krafth until December.. revisit the situation in January. 

 

And of course I'd spent some of the planned money on a winger - Noni is in great form, won't see much football with Palmer and Neto around and there might be potential for a FFP-friendly loan..
