Delighted CP lost today though, cunts.

 

So petty.

 

 

Fully agreed as well 😂

They're entirely fair in how they've approached this, I'd want us to do the same.

 

That being said though, I hope they get relegated and fuck off onto irrelevancy. They won't though, they're like a turd that won't flush. Like Everton. 

 

And I don't even care about Guehi that much.

Lets go for Eze - they'll be stuffed without him

Lets sign that RW first.

I know there's more to a CB than passing, but until I was looking at his stats compared to ours this morning, I didn't realise his numbers were that high. Can see why we'd possibly want to still push for him.

Apparently he’s shit now after yesterday 😂 Yes fwiw I think they’ll have one more go this week and then turn to alternatives. I suppose they can’t leave it too late otherwise they might leaves themselves short but Mitchel and co aren’t mugs they’re aware of that.

Nah just offer 80m and get him. Couldn’t care less. It should be Howe’s problem to take since he forced the deal to go through. Why should the fans worry for that?

Fully expect Almiron to start next game btw.

Spot on - half our fans forgetting the hundreds of millions they’ve spent, the acedemy and business s as ide they’re slowly building, they simply just get so fucked off at the first two sales we have to make (ASM and Minteh). 

Does anybody really think the club wanted to trade Anderson or Minteh? They were forced to. It was either them or an Isak, Bruno, Gordon etc. Another hangover from the Ashley years is that we don't have any other saleable alternatives. We have a number of players on salaries which exceed their abilities who understandably want paying up to move on as any perspective new club are unwilling to match what they are on.

Yep and until they’ve all been run down we will always have one hand tied behind our back. When them old contracts have gone and the acedemy players come through (and buy in the mean time) then we’ll have undone the state Ashley left us in and not before.

I’m not going to say he’s shit or anything as I don’t watch a lot of palace but reading through their forum a fair few of them did say he’s prone to errors and gets done quite a bit.

That maybe the case but on the evidence of the euros he looks pretty fucking good to me. I’m sure there’s areas he can improve in, he’s only 23/24 too and Howe and Tindall seem to have a knack in this set up of pushing players on. 
 

What will be will be, I just hope we get some CB cover/depth in. 

[r0cafella]

So do we reckon this gets done?

Possibly.

[ATB]

Just get him! If we really think he will be massive here we just have to take the bite and the one driving this take the blame.

 

we really need a top cb in pronto.

Should be over one way or another this week at least. Personally think we get him and that’s us done for the window.

I think its him and someone on loan with obligation or a surprise target if pieces fall the right way. 

 

Will depend if any of our other top CB targets are available and if we want to go lower down our list or just wait for another window.

It’s either gonna get done or on the flip-side, it just won’t get done.

Think we should know by next week

Schrödinger's bid.

 

Palace don't accept or reject the latest offer so the deal is never 'off'.

Who's this Schrodinger? Right winger?

[ExiledGeordie]

Waugh saying it’s going to have to be finalised one way or another next few days. Either pay up or move on (which is pretty obvious really)

Wasn't there talk of a Chelsea clause coming into effect after the first game of the season? That would make any deal look even less appealing. Think we'll look elsewhere. Hope so too for the fee mentioned.

[r0cafella]

It’s kinda of strange though, in that article from Waugh all of the alternatives also were PL based. Mitchell’s reputation at Monaco was based upon trimming the wage bill and bringing through talents so it’s quite surprising to me we are after such players. 
 

That’s of course unless we intend to ship out someone Schar maybe?

that’s what shadow puppet said, which I thought would means the end of this deal.

that’s why I said it’s Howe who is pushing the deal.
