Displayname Posted August 16, 2024 Share Posted August 16, 2024 (edited) 3 minutes ago, LionOfGosforth said: This stinks of Palace privately letting us know what they want, while we try to negotiate in good faith and then they move the goalposts each time, while leaking everything to their Southern press mates to look hard to their ultra nonces in black shirts fans. Yes, he's their player and they're entitled to do and ask what they want but I don't think they've ever really intended to sell. We've spent enough time on it, been 2 weeks but feels like the whole summer. Go get Raphinha, fuck Palace. Fool me once shame on you, fool me four times and im a fucking idiot.

Chelsea are much easier to deal with too. I reckon we could have that deal wrapped up in 48 hours if we went hard and fast. Would not touch Madueke for 50. Even 40 is steep.

The club clearly think he's worth that to us. Not sure you'd get a 24 year old England international for less than £60m. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Abacus Posted August 16, 2024 Share Posted August 16, 2024 I'd hope that from the moment Parish did that interview, we were more actively looking to bid for other players, or have done already, with a less leaky club. Shame if he wants to join, but such is life. Even if we'd signed him today, he wasn't playing tomorrow. We tend to go back to targets we like anyway.

It's not just one source, and everything they've told me has been pretty much correct, apart from the fact he hasn't signed yet. They are (or at least as of last time I spoke to them) very confident of getting him. They're also absolutely 100% correct that he wants the move. They just thought it would have happened sooner than this. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Embarrassing now I would come out and say tat in public as well but i'm petty like that - i'd say something along the lines of "with the TV interviews have slight digs and just keep chipping the price up and up, this just isn't how we want to do business so we're walking away now. We do rate him though and would have loved to hsve signed him" (that last bit as a message saying if you choose not to sign a new deal, you've got a job here).
