Bimpy474 Posted August 17, 2024 Share Posted August 17, 2024 Wanna wake tomorrow, potter about for a bit and then when i sit down to watch the footy, news in that Guehi is not in the Palace squad, because he's on his way to us for a medical. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Zero Posted August 18, 2024 Share Posted August 18, 2024 There must be. The problem is none is EPL proven and Howe wants that. You can say trust Eddie, I would say he has to held responsible for all the consequence. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Not so much EPL proven (see Bruno, Tonali, Isak etc) but right now someone who is plug and play ready in the Premier could be worth that bit extra.

The are lots of reasons a transfer could be a failure. By spending over 70m pounds on Guehi, we are at the point of no return. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

ExiledGeordie Posted August 18, 2024 Share Posted August 18, 2024 I’m pretty happy either way, if we bring him in great, if we get another player in who is a solid back up to Schar then great too. Either way we need another option there that’s plainly obvious and one with decent pace would be good. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

We've had some proper frauds involved with this club over the years. Some rank useless bastards as well. Even some wankers, deliberately, working to undermine us. Wor Flags, rightly, offered a consideration to Amanda and Merhdad but they weren't football professionals. Shortly after Schar got sent off the camera span to Eales, Mitchell and Bunce. They kna the crack. We're in safe hands and they'll either get Guehi or not. I trust them regardless. Said the same thing pretty much in another thread. The added bonus in all this there here for the Kudos, not to make money. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Pretty sure that applies to nearly every big transfer deal in the world? ”oh no, hope we don’t spend money on a player in case he gets injured” Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
