Evann Guessand

there were figures of ÂŁ12 mil and ÂŁ20 mil being banded about, at ÂŁ35 mil he'd only be worth it as a direct replacement for Eze not squad reinforcement so no loss
That's what I thought. You can spend that money on a bench warmer unless Eze is off.
 
Sky have reported that the initial fee is one of ÂŁ23.5M with potential add ons taking it up to a maximum of ÂŁ28M if all conditions are met.


That’s way off the earlier suggestions of £35M and less than we splaffed on Nketiah 🥴
For a striker that can reportedly play across the entire frontline I don’t think it’s an extraordinary amount of money although many have said the opposite. We will probably know before Christmas whether he was a good buy and can handle it at this level.

I like the idea of us buying a utility forward, a bit like Ayew was, who can provide quality cover or even push for a starting place in multiple positions

I agree with you.

The earlier suggestions were a fee of around ÂŁ35M for Guessand. That seemed a lot but for ÂŁ23.5M that seems far more reasonable.
 
Our transfers this window are just plain strange… where the hell does this guy fit into the team?

Perhaps Ollie is going to go down in flames playing 3 wingers plus 2 wingbacks, no midfield and hope that Strand Larson scores 50 goals from all the crosses
We’ve done goalkeepers the last few years, now we are moving onto wingers.

What this does suggest if it is true, is that we will probably look to offload Esse to Coventry and JRS to whoever will buy him. What Drakes-Thomas makes of us potentially having half a dozen wide players is anyone’s guess.
 
This guy has talent.

On loan with option to buy according to Romano.

 
Can't help but feel this would signal the end of Nketiah? Or perhaps even Sarr?

Definitely won't be seeing Uche in a Palace shirt again if this one comes off, as well as JSL.
