I think I was shot down the day he was linked when suggesting Southgate picking him had projected him from a relative nobody to a potentially false stature. I dunno maybe he's doing it on purpose?
He still did it. Last two games he's cost Palace twice .. 65 million... Might he like Gordon be having a dip because his heads been turned?
He can't not be an improvement... the scouts and club will have been watching him a long time. Southgate probably ****ed us over by playing him as the price will have increased
My only input into the discussion on Guehi's quality level is that my Crystal Palace mate thinks he's very good. Believes he'll massively strengthen our defence if we sign him. Even he thinks that £70m is way overpriced though.
If signing him means no noteworthy rw player it's a mistake. If they still sign a quality rw player it's a win win.
That would probably depend on whether Chelsea are interested in loaning us Madueke, with a 'buy next season for £35m' clause included.
They must have seen my Joelinton to midfield thread... the best thing that's ever been done at the club.
It's truly amazing how they saw that one particular post, but not your 12,367 posts slating Longstaff, as he still seems to be playing.
I made a thread on the subject. I've actually always been saying Longstaff is a great lad but I'm just saying I don't think he's very good. The coming years will tell us more on this one. Incidentally I'm criticised for saying that by the same people that criticised Joelinton, Hendrick, shelvey, Schar and countless others. Longstaff is a grafter and that's I'm afraid not going to be enough .. if I've ever been overly unkind about him or other players then I apologise.
I will point out that whilst it's possible to argue the merits of the other players in this list - yes even Shelvey - there is no reason for anyone to defend Hendrick. He makes me feel like I should give professional football a go at the age of 42. Watching him made me wonder if his cousin was George Weah.
