I'd be amazed if when he's available on a free there's just us and Liverpool after him.

 

 

 

Barcelona and Bayern Munich are apparently interested as well.

He's definitely not coming here. If he was interested he'd have signed by now imo. He's known of our interest for ages and just doesn't seem at all keen. Time to move on and I think the club probably have already.

If the right move doesn’t materialise? What a fucking weird way to put it, he won’t be moving because his owner won’t sell him for anything less than a ransom and because of that he can’t get a top contract

Thanks for saving me writing this out.

 

Whatever BS posturing there may be beforehand, I would expect Palace to accept a decent bid made at the end of the window by a club in the CL Guehi would be happy to join.

If still be surprised if he’s allowed to run his contract down. Major fail by Palace if that happens.

How can you stop a player running his contract down?

Yeah, at this point he can just refuse any move unless the salary is comparable to what he anticipates getting next summer as a free agent.

You can’t stop him if he’s intent, but if he has market value and wants to leave you can try to find him a move that gets you some money in. 
 

For example, they could have taken loads of money from us :lol:

They probably thought the £45-50m offered minus Chelsea £20+m wasn’t worth losing him two years early and would rather have his services. Their cup win probably justified that decision.

He's doing what  Trent did, running his contract down to get himself a big payday. Perfectly legal but can't say that I like it

 

Why not? Are you generally in favour of corporations making money over individual employees?

 

Personally I'd rather see a massive redistribution of wealth across the world, from corporations to the employees themselves. This is what Trent did, and what I'd do as a player too. I'm surprised all players don't do it. Why as a player should someone else get £100m for me, am I an object? How can a human being be bought? 

 

On the flip side, if Newcastle bought players who left for nothing I'd be a little disappointed because that negatively impacts my team's ability to then reinvest in transfers, but that's me as a football fan supporting an individual team and I can compartmentalise that against the human angle where I'm in favour of anyone, hell everyone, walking away at the end of their contract to maximise their pay. It's not like footballers are absolutely guaranteed to be set for life, see the Lee Clark thread. And that's a man who has had 15+ years of employment AFTER retiring from football.

Well maybe, they might have won the cup anyway, who knows. And even then, they could sell him this summer. Still think they probably will TBH.

2 months left of the window so anything could happen. I’ve a feeling it will be Liverpool this summer or next for free. With their main competition being Chelsea as he’s £20+m cheaper for them to buy which makes him quite inexpensive despite being into his last year.

 

Id be surprised if we get him. Unless it’s a great fee and other interest isn’t there but at our range you’d expect Spurs to be interested with Romero wanting to leave.

That's totally unfair! Parish called Guehi a superstar player, so he should offer him a top contract and wage! If not, Guehi should just let that contract run down. On Trent, they waited till his last year to offer an extension!  They offered him 300k a week in January. Think he'd have turned that down with two years to go on his contract?

Now they're letting Konate's contract run down too. If they don't offer him something near VVD's deal, he'll realize he can boost his value by joining Real Madrid.

 

 You'll hear them whining next summer again.
