Different position and would cost £20m.

Apart from that yeah why not. Palace should buy him or Bournemouth when one of King/Wilson go.
 
Perfect replacement in my view. No point selling/ giving Eze away without someone in mind, it'll mess up our season. Disagree that Watkins isn't a good option. Who would you suggest to replace him giving our style of play?
Imagine how Brentford would feel,too!

Mate he’s going to the Prem and for serious money.

Eze is near impossible to replace like for like but Chair will continue to improve.
 
If he's going to Spurs, he may as well go to Bournemouth, Burnley and the like.
One because they seem better run and two, because he's more likely to get a game.
Perhaps we could get Freeman back on loan, as I am not sure how often he's playing.
The main point I am making is if the fans really think Eze will go, then we need to line someone similar up, so as not to unhinge all of MW's good work.
 
Why would Eze go in january? I believe we got a chance in a promotion fight and selling eze before that would be idiotic. Well, we have done many idiotic decisions before but still...

I'll agree if we are still in, or close to a play off place in January.

As Watford (I think) suggested, he could be sold in January but loaned backed to us for the rest of the season.

You never know what sort of offer will turn his or the club’s head but I know someone very close to him and he’s a very nice, humble kid from a good family. He should be aware he’s got a lot to learn still and can go to the very top if he makes the right decisions. Rushing into the first Prem club that fancies you in the squad at his age would be foolish imo but then I’ve never been offered 5/6 times my current salary. Being selfish I’d rather he went to a big club and we got him back for a year but would love him to flourish with an Eddie Howe type.
