Eveready Posted August 13, 2025 Share Posted August 13, 2025 I'm interested in how 'extensive' our Scalvini scouting was, considering he played about 300 minutes last season. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Fenham Mag Posted August 13, 2025 Share Posted August 13, 2025 They're great in agreeing terms with a player without actually offering the required amount. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
gbandit Posted August 13, 2025 Share Posted August 13, 2025 Sounds like classy and respectful Liverpool are low-balling and Guehi is terrified of getting no game time to me. Parish is going to have to enjoy his £0 superstar price for a superstar player. Guehi will go to Liverpool next year when there’s no risk to him and Liverpool get him for nothing. It’s not happening this window, poor Parish Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
TK-421 Posted August 13, 2025 Share Posted August 13, 2025 Definitely time for our offer to force their hand. If they really want him this summer, they have to use some Isak funds and outbid us. Sounds like Palace won't do a Leipzig and leave it to the player, if our offer is higher. Lets either push their bid up, or get him. I'm happy with either. Plus, I'm sure we can offer him the game time he wants ahead of next summer, even with our other centre halves. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
SiLvOR Posted August 13, 2025 Share Posted August 13, 2025 God, I would absolutely love us to slap a bid in to force Liverpool to actually pay up. Cunts. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Turnbull2000 Posted August 13, 2025 Share Posted August 13, 2025 Can't help but find it hilarious that Palace will likely lose him for nowt when they could have taken £60m+ last summer. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Surely the scouse will be all coming out and saying that he shouldn't be doing this as he's betraying his boyhood club by running his contract down and moving on - maybe they'll give palace a token £10m to soften the blow next summer - this is how it supposed to work according to Liverpool isnt it Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Decky Posted August 13, 2025 Share Posted August 13, 2025 Liverpool probably don't really care as they'll have given him a deal for next summer anyway. They got Isak on board before the season ended so they'll be talking Guehi up too. Watch that be ok next summer though and nothing like the Trent situation at all. Complete wankers.

There’s some belief that he was contractually-bound to go back to them once they came back in. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
