Chicken Dancer Posted August 28, 2024 Share Posted August 28, 2024 I'm all for getting somebody in, but £70m would be an absolute scandal like. It will definitely raise the mood but he best be the second coming of Cannavaro if we pay that. Christ. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Doctor Zaius Posted August 28, 2024 Share Posted August 28, 2024 Having one target for the entire summer is absolutely mental. What if the selling club wants us to pay over the odds for him? What do we do then? Well that's what's happened. Why has our summer consisted of Guehi or bust? Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Prophet Posted August 28, 2024 Share Posted August 28, 2024 Publicly it seems like Guehi or bust, but they've obviously been given enough encouragement to stay the course. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

clintdempsey Posted August 28, 2024 Share Posted August 28, 2024 I’d rather have Lacroix and Kulu/Elanga for example than Guehi tbh. Would even leave us some change for January. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

rebelrouser Posted August 28, 2024 Share Posted August 28, 2024 I hope we don't get him. It will enforce the narrative we had right after the take over that we were a rich club that would spend like Chelsea. Paying £70M could force some sales of some great players too. We should have focused on RW and offered cash for Madueke weeks ago. He would make use better than Guehi for 24/25. After Madueke we would have looked into a younger replacement for Schar that could take a year to get comfortable. My guess is that we have made a final offer that is way over any reasonable value and Palace can take it or leave it. We are trying to build like Chelsea and Man U a couple of years ago. That didn't work out for them. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Madueke appears to be in Chelsea’s plans, there’s no indication Chelsea would sell or that the player would agree to come. Same with Chiesa chat, would he have agreed to join a team not in the CL? Perhaps not. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Before now we've signed young or undervalued players almost exclusively. Edited August 28, 2024 by AyeDubbleYoo Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
