    If Lemina did go to wolves on loan he wouldn't be able to play against us.........ex players always score against us.

    The latest rumors do seem to show we’re starting to have to settle for loans now.

    Think if we’re hampered and can only get in loans, then Tomori would be my number one choice. He played really well against us in the cup

    Loans with obligations to buy, it basically buying the player but delaying the hit. Buying players isn't our problem, we have the money it the wages.

    Bianca wants to be in London, but no London club has shown any interest in Austin (Charlie wanted to go to Palace) so it’s a case of how pissed off they are in the coming days and decide to fook off.

    Palace are one of those clubs who like to do business on the final day. And they haven't yet replaced Batshuayi. So I wouldn't rule them out making a late bid.

    (I can't decide whether them selling Zaha would make it more or less likely. Selling him would guarantee that Palace do incoming business. But it might also mean that they go shopping in a better shop.)

    Why not?
    Different philosophy under RH. No fear in playing youngsters, if anything prefers to blood younger talented players.
    A loan signing would give more time to clear out the squad, so would be beneficial.
    Also, young players already involved since RH took over.
    Valero, Obafemi, Slattery, Ramsay, to name a few.

    Why not? Age is no barrier. If he’s good enough than great.

    "If you're good enough, you're old enough."

    OR

    "You'll win nothing with kids."

    We should have a poll.

    he’s pacy, which is the number one priority for a Centre back. Only 12 top flight matches thus far

    Agree with Beefy, it's about reducing the overhead and if someone is picking up.the wages and wr are selling on a season later, still good for the finances.

    I agree. I wasn't saying we shouldn't. Just saying its unlikely. Which is true.

    I'd argue that it was more likely any new CB was coming into play. Regardless of his age. Ralph has stated anyone brought in will be a better player than what we have. So with those intentions he isn't going to sit on the bench. Imo
