Eddie can see this lad has the ability to achieve elite level and he's a popular lad in the dressing room. Calm, mature and commands respect. We're spending big money for a big reason. Yeah thankfully Howe and co are choosing players and not members of the forum 😂 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
r0cafella Posted August 16 Share Posted August 16 A bit confused, has anyone said he won’t be a good signing? If yes can you please share the posts?  I think the concerns are relating to the price and affordability when it comes to compliance with the rules. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Zero Posted August 16 Share Posted August 16 6 minutes ago, Upthemags said: Basically gave Palace everything they wanted and then some. As long as we aren't fire selling Bruno, Isak, Gordon, Tonali next window then it's probably defensible if the club think he's the next big thing.  I don't personally see it just based on a few games against weak countries in the Euros and an average season in the prem, but trust the club have put their finger on a gem here. Worth noting he's only a year older than Gordon.  It obviously depends on our end of season league position  I genuinely think there is no buffer left and if we are unable to qualify for Europe, Howe must be sacked, and we would undergo a lot of squad restructuring to reset the PSR calculations Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Prophet Posted August 16 Share Posted August 16 From the Standard:  "Despite failing to meet Palace’s demands, Newcastle are understood to be confident in brokering a deal for Guehi. The bid was not immediately rejected and negotiations between Palace chairman Steve Parish and Paul Mitchell, Newcastle’s sporting director, are ongoing."

Whether he worths the price 2. Even if he is fucking brilliant, the team as a whole has to perform magnificently and get a top 6 finish minimum Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Scoot Posted August 16 Share Posted August 16 I look forward to news breaking on sunday/Monday of how it's been rejected as it falls short of Crystal Palace's 90 million valuation... Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Klaus Posted August 16 Share Posted August 16 (edited) £65M for us to spend on a centre half is just difficult to comprehend.  I don't think anybody believes he isnt a good signing. Edited August 16 by Klaus Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

My best guess is it's not quite working out, seeing as he seems to have dropped off the radar. Maybe a loan this season to prove himself? Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

I’m keeping my FFP/PSR posts to that thread but I will say that we don’t have the revenue to tank 100m+ net spend summers at this point. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
