Of course, but given how long it’s taken to do deals this summer, a week (just less) isn’t a long time. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Leaving it until the weekend would give us less than a week to get someone else. Not really. We can start moves for other players whilst still leaving this offer on the table.

They'll be leading us on a string as close to deadline day as they can before blowing us out again Fuck parish and palace.

Theres nothing to suggest we aren’t already talking to other clubs about other centre halves virtually having a deal agreed if and when we do walk away Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dr Jinx Posted August 20, 2024 Share Posted August 20, 2024 Could well be wrong but I think this one is dead now. 4 bids if that’s true shows we really want to sign him but every player has a financial point where it doesn’t make any sense. We need a body in but it doesn’t have to be a “purple” Not saying Brighton would sell him but someone like Lewis Dunk would just slot straight in and can pass a bit.. £15m or there abouts and you’ve got cover and experience there for 2 years.

With less than a week left that may put us in that category. Although tbh I’d be happy to not buy another CB if we can’t land a top target. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
TRon Posted August 20, 2024 Share Posted August 20, 2024 3 hours ago, McCormick said: If they ended up with Guehi, I wonder if they’d consider selling Quansah, and for how much? Common sense says less than 70m but you never know these days. They already tried to dump Joe Gomez on us as part of the deal to take Gordon. It already crossed my mind when the Gomez link resurfaced yesterday that Liverpool would love for us to spend £45m on him then use the money to buy Guehi. Selling Quansah was already knocked on the head by them in June. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

We should do nothing to enable those horrible cunts who have spent the last 4 years agitating behind the scenes against us and our takeover. I’d rather do without than hand them £40m for Joe fucking Gomez. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tbf, we have no idea where these links to Joe Gomez are coming from, but I'd be asking serious questions of our recruitment team if he ended up here. Palace might be trying to pull our eyes out for Guehi but I'd take that any day of the week over buying Liverpool's leftovers and giving them the money to buy Guehi instead.

They are coming from that was the supposed PSR dodging deal that was apparently lined up before we saw Anderson & Minteh. Liverpool wanted Gordon and offered Gomez in the other direction.

It’s an easy lazy link added to fact he was left out the Liverpool squad because he’s exploring his options. 2+2=?

I don’t think they want to keep him (see already trying to buy a replacement) they are just trying to get as much money as possible. Reckon if the end up keeping him with no £70m with his 2 years on his contract ticking down they’ll arguably be just as disappointed as we’ll be Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jackie Broon Posted August 20, 2024 Share Posted August 20, 2024 (edited) More damaging for them than us if we walk away. Unless he has a stellar season he's at the peak of his value. Realistically, Palace are a club that will be seen as a stepping stone by players (as we probably are by the likes of Isak at the moment). If they are seen as a club that will do everything to hold onto players that want to move on to bigger and better things and act publicly and unreasonably in negotiations that might well mean agents of the type of players they want to sign will not see them favourably.
