    Thinking seems to be its an upgrade on Quansah for a similar price, with the buy back clause as well.
    Guehi has plenty of prem. experience and has captained Palace also.
    Like you say,our transfer activity has been pretty solid for some years now so we 'trust the system'.

    I'm with you on this. Not a player I particularly like and think it's all about HG.

    Yeah, he had high blood pressure in his first medical, so Shankly sent him on a fortnight's holiday to Majorca before he had a second medical. He came back with the clap... :emoticon-0108-speec

    We will, we'll just have to agree to Napoli's low-ball as that is the only club ne'll go to now. We can't blame him for that - WC year, and he doesn't want to go to Saudi, and all that. We'll not get much more than €35m + add-ons (that he'll never achieve), but that is the way it is.

    Have my reservations too: he's no better than Konate (probably not as fast), and we're supposedly paying him £200k a week - what we wouldn't pay Ibou. But he's HG and less injury-prone, tbf. Presumably, this means Ibou is going in this window and we've got another CB from around Europe or the lower leagues lined up as well.

    Edit - Yeah, I now know that's a fake Romano account. :emoticon-0111-blush

    Changing so much of the first XI, we may struggle at start of the season.

    It's a possibility sure but I'm optimistic slot knows how to Integrate the new lads in without too much disruption to thtema rhythm or the ones who's positions are now under real competition like robbo and sboz as both seem like characters that will rise to that challenge imo.

    In fact I'm hoping the fresh faces create a real buzz within the team and I expect us to start off very strong

    Too much change?

    Not enough change?

    Can't please them all.

    Alisson. Reliable
    Bradley. Can start and frimpong compete
    Cb? Konate rumours around. Who knows.
    Vvd. Solid.
    Kerez. Had to be done.
    Gravenberch. 12 months in.
    Macallister- vital
    Szoboszlai or wirtz. What a contest
    Salah. Again reliable.
    Jota or diaz. Known quantities
    Gakpo. Reliable.

    So this is too.much change?

    So far this is 3 first team upgrades, we don't know yet about konate. We don't know about striker.

    This is a full preseason to get it together and the full picture is not even clear.

    Stop borrowing problems before thry are problems.

    Too good to be true? I understand Lucho 100% being frustrated that he earns one-third of what Chiesa does, and I'd treble his wages in a heartbeat. But, supposedly (!), he wants £200k and is prepared to sit out his contract. IF we could get €100m for him, AND IF he'd go to Saudi in a WC season, then this would make up for flogging Nunez at less than half price to Napoli. Go for it, I say. And I really, really rate Diaz. :emoticon-0148-yes:
