midds Posted August 20 Share Posted August 20 I know it's easy to say from a distance but I'd have walked away from this whole deal the second that slimy spiv cunt opened his mouth last Tuesday. Huge red flag for me, going full public on a private sale of a player to pacify his own fanbase - fuck that. Move on. There are more CBs in the world other than Marc Guehi. He's very good but he's not worth this amount of hassle, especially considering the wanksplat we're having to negotiate with Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
jigen Posted August 20 Share Posted August 20 14 minutes ago, CallumG6 said: With the way Palace have carried on I’d be doing the exact same. Their scouting network is pretty good. He’s made over 100 appearances for Wolfsburg already and he’s only 24. Worth a punt. I had written about Lacroix even before the Palace's interest... But nobody here believed me. Very good defender and his contract ends next year. A bargain. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Erikse Posted August 20 Share Posted August 20 (edited) I honestly don't think the club could care less about what clubs they are "helping" when figuring out who to buy. As long as they feel like the player will help us with what we need, and the price is not too bad, that will be first priority above all else.

I would even call Everton about Branthwaite if we are willing to make it a priority but that would give us two left footed cbs. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Doctor Zaius Posted August 20 Share Posted August 20 31 minutes ago, The Prophet said: The sale of another starting central defender is obviously going to have an impact on the Guehi sale, despite 'what you've been told', Keith. I'd have liked this, so would Howe but sometimes it's a case of win some/lose some. Nothing is guaranteed and sometimes negotiations fail. The club should have other targets lined up.

So really Palace need to hold firm, see where they are at Christmas and sell Guehi then, or even agree a deal for him to leave next summer. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Palace are under no pressure at all to sell and TBF in the most uncompetitive EPL in a generation, we are under no pressure to buy. Masters needs to be careful because his product will start to lose its appeal very quickly and broadcasters will pull back on the mega deals for the TV rights.

There’s no way we’re going through this with just a lukewarm reaction from the player. Not disagreeing but if he wants the move that badly then he'll put in a request. If he's just 'open' to a move then I'd prefer us to move on and look at other CBs. If £70m ish is the price then he's going to become one of the most expensive defenders of all time. He either wants it or he doesn't Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

The 1st one was when he was at the Premier League meeting and they asked him that along with other questions. The 2nd time he was on TalkSport and was talking more about the clubs finances and the new stadium. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

toontownman Posted August 21 Share Posted August 21 Think this one is toast with Andersen leaving. Cant see them selling both. Shame it felt right for us. Im sure our fallback option will be fine, whether that's now or January. Should see more money earmarked for RW, with a bit of luck. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
r0cafella Posted August 21 Share Posted August 21 I don’t think Anderson is particularly linked to this tbh, Palace will want to either sell him this window or extend him. If neither happens they are kissing goodbye to 15m at least. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Just got to hope the back up option turns out to be a gem and we don’t look back. It certainly hasn’t played out how they usually do but both Caulkin and Douglas have said club would dispute how many bids there’ve been. All the noise seems to have come from the Palace end. You’d imagine there either needs to be movement next couple of days otherwise we lose time securing other targets. I’ve no idea what will happen, what a mental saga 😂 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
