rebelrouser Posted September 17 Share Posted September 17 Palace did us a favor, rejecting the £65M. It may have bruised the egos of our staff, but they are professionals and will learn a lesson and move on. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Zero Posted September 17 Share Posted September 17 40m is a fair price. I just ain’t sure CP would accept our bid - they might even prefer to sell for less money to Liverpool due to ego Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

General sentiment was that we were overpaying, then it got to a point where most didn’t care and just wanted to sign a marquee player. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

I don't think personally he's worth even anywhere near £40 million. He's never impressed me greatly in the games I have seen him play for Palace. He was atrocious in the game up here last season Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

He's never impressed me greatly in the games I have seen him play for Palace. He was atrocious in the game up here last season That’s what I have been saying myself. Even just look at his defending on the weekend for the Leicester goal. He’s got some attributes that we would like in the side and is still young so can develop with us. But he’s nowhere worth the money they talked about in the summer. I’m pretty sure we didn’t get close to £65m too as we know it’s not good value. A fee around the Botman price to me is fair, but having a decent couple games for England means you’re now a ‘superstar’ it seems Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Menace Posted September 17 Share Posted September 17 He's a starting England centre back who turned 24 a few months ago. I think £50M is a fair price for him personally. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

He was only a starter at the euros because Maguire got injured. I think Maguire and Stones are still first choice. Guehi might be first choice back up, but I wouldn’t be surprised if Konsa gets picked ahead of him. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Alberto2005 Posted September 17 Share Posted September 17 50m is definitely fair, technically if you think he's worth 35-40 without English tax then 50m is about right with it included. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

You make a valid point - however I personally don't think Maguire gets game time under Carsley/new manager. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
TRC Posted September 17 Share Posted September 17 Interesting that he looks to be suffering from Anderson going, to me he looks like he would be to compliment Schar rather than a Schar replacement. Good to see Schar scoring goals while Guehi is getting rinsed for pace and strength by a 37 year old. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

He's on there telling them Man U have far superior players to them and only Martinez would get in the manure team. Got them biting like fuck Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ronaldo Posted September 21 Share Posted September 21 Who Guehi? We watched a different game mind, Man U could easily have been 3-0 up at half time. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tbf, when you put it that way, you can understand why Howe wants PL proven signings. He more than likely won't be here in 4 years time, he's not going to see the benefit of buying development players. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kanj Posted September 24 Share Posted September 24 He doesn't have time for development players if it means they can't very quickly jump into how he wants to play football and when he's probably got a "must make europe" target on his back every season.

rebelrouser Posted September 24 Share Posted September 24 I'm not convinced Guehi is definitely better than Schar so I think a center back that provides cover for Schar and Botman and even Tino would be fine in the short term. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
