Marc Guehi

[Ronaldo]

He never was his replacement. I don’t want us to replace Schar though, to be fair. Strong backup for both him and Botman and a RW were the must haves.

I dont think we’ll be back in for him, Mitchel will have his own targets by next January / Summer.

Palace rejected 70m for this dude and were smug as fuck about it.

Said it in the other games thread but not getting Guehi may be one of the best bits of business we’ve ever done. I say that as a fan of him as well but the whole thing was absurd from start to finish

Totally agree, there's a player in there that the beginning of this season is not showcasing, hard to blame him for being off after the window. He's not and never has been a 70m player, but I think we'll be back for him at a more reasonable fee, we usually go back for players when we don't initially get them.

Not having Andersen with him may have affected him also (not seen any highlights from the game).

Anderson is a cracking centre back tbf, even if he lacks pace. He sees everything a split second earlier than most.

[nemtizz]

As funny as it is our entire backline got burnt by Chris Wood multiple times.

Nah you can keep him Palace

that should knock a fair few mil off his price.  I don't think he's had a very good start to the season.

Per BBC "Palace captain Marc Guehi was also guilty of some questionable defending in the first half"

Will they keep saying he's had his head turned ?

[Danh1]

Stay clear in Jan. @Eddie @Paul 

[Pixelphish]

I mean there is the slight chance he's vexxed about how the summer turned out and its effecting his performances, rather than him just turning into trash.

Be as professional as you want but most of us are human

 

Not suggesting we go back in for him fwiw.

[Whitley mag]

Far from impressed by his performances this season, no doubting his ability on the ball but serious reservations about his defending, unless the fee drops significantly I’d be shopping elsewhere.

[Kid Icarus]

Oof. Playing exactly like someone who didn't get a move. Palace are even bigger mugs than us for not accepting what was offered.

Yep, Parish played a stupid game and won a stupid prize.  The lad has had his head turned, and no-one will pay big money in Jan.  And next summer plenty of clubs are likely to wait (assuming CP are in the PL).

 

A short burst of form at the end of last season has given them delusions of grandeur.  

[mighty__mag]

Looking forward to January, when we sign Takefusa Kubo, have Sven Botman back, and forget about Guehi.

Is he though? I’ve never watched him week on week but I did enough digging in their forum to find quite a few incidents both before we were linked and during of their fans saying he often gets caught and done like that. (Their not going to say it now though)

 

Ive always thought - if both are 100% then on their day I’d rather have Botman.

Haven’t seen his recent lapses, and tbf hadn’t really noticed him pre Euros, but do wonder whether it is about change of partnerships rather than upset at not leaving the tiny fuckwitarama that is Glass Hovel. 
Sometimes it looks like Player A has made a mistake/does make a mistake but it is because he has been covering for what Player B used to do and Player C doesn’t (regardless of whether Player C is worse, better, or pretty much the same overall quality of the former partner).

Think he's more the long-term replacement for Schär, but yeah I've not seen him done like that before tbh. 

[gbandit]

Let’s see who ends up paying over the odds on players in January when they’re threatened by relegation. Silly twats win shite prizes, going to struggle to stop laughing when this all backfires on Parish in a few months

[Dr.Spaceman]

Shite, move on.

[The College Dropout]

Never thought he was elite. 

[Kimbo]

I’ve always found the idea Liverpool would be after him as a Van Dijk replacement weird. Guehi is the type of player you might partner with a player like that, but he’s never going to be the main man in defence for a top team. £70m, what the fucking hell was going on.
