    I'd rather have Branthwaite but I suppose this player cannot be worse than Krafth at cb

    I suggest you read what I wrote in the first place. Then just for once take a moment to think whether you were just being an oaf.

    OK
    Fair enough, I'm an oaf and you're a knobhead. Deal? <cheers>

    WTAF Guehi would be immense. Him and Botman as a pairing would be, would be - I don't even have the superlatives to adequately do it justice.

    He's fast - would be the perfect foil for Botman, powerful in the air, good positional sense in the main and is still only 24 - him and Botman could do 10 years here together...

    £60m is probably a bit more than I'd pay but your paying the English tax on a young CB who could be the mainstay of England's defence for the next 10 years so you've got to pay a premium I guess.

    If it is around that figure I'd be hard pressed to see us signing anyone else unless Miggy and Wilson were moved on or another big name is on the way out already....

    I doubt it will be that much. But I can see it easily being 50m.

    What did GG do wrong.

    This is why I knew you were the right man for the role of Skeletor because you're a big oaf but somewhere in there is a likeable character.

    Of course mate it's all good.

    Yeah, I'd expect around £50m plus add ons would be about right.

    I haven’t.

    You must have seen him in the World Cup. I’ve seen him a couple of times for palace and looks solid enough.

    For 40-50m I think we cannot go wrong. He’s a massive upgrade on Lascelles. 24 and has premiership experience.

    I think this may be the best signing of the summer if we get him.

    God I would Keegan style love it if we signed him.

    He’s a massive upgrade on what we have and maybe even better than Botman.

    Guehi as the CB would be erection inducing... but... I'll temper all this excitement by telling myself that he'll probably go to Chelsea.

    I hope you're right but I'm just being honest I haven't seen much of him, so if everyone is going off the euros I ain't buying it yet.

    Ah but I'm Croydon based, so get to see a bit of Palace every now and then so have seen him play. The lad is genuine class.

    Read my next post re the comments on the Twitter post.

    I accept your point about not seeing him much. But let all the neutral comments give you much needed reassurance that he’s the real deal.

    I wasn't really feeling it about Thiaw, don't think Milan fans rate him that highly.

    Guehi however would be an incredible signing.

    I’m all in balls deep for this one mate.

    Im putting my everything in this transfer happening.

    If it doesn’t I’m going to be so sad.
