Marc Guéhi

After listening to the press conference, are the board really going to pull the rug from under O G and sell Guehi? As he said it would be impossible to integrate a new cb into our system now the season has started. It would completely disrupt our defence. I wouldn't be surprised if he walked.

Get the feeling OG is as confused as anyone on the outside over Palaces, transfer activity, not just the lack of but the timing. The Guehi, issue has been there to be dealt with all window, yet it’s still not resolved .OG shouldn’t have to spell it out, it’s only to clear. the fact that he does has to be a worry . Pino, was an absolute must after losing Eze but even now only a really late flurry of activity will give him what has been needed since we knew we were in European football. Can’t help wondering why the club made so much noise over the denial of Europa league.
Everything since gives the impression we couldn’t afford to be in it.

Lacroix will have to wear a Guehi mask and crouch down a bit. We'll say Lacroix was called up for the Olympics. Ollie won't notice.
 
I've seen a lot of posts on X that Glasner will walk if Guéhi leaves, will he or won't he i doubt it tbh he might just see out the season, no player or manager is bigger than the club. Glasner has been told he will be replaced with 2 central backs one being jaydee and the other we don't know yet, we also have Riad who i do rate. If Guéhi doesn't want to sign a new contract than so be it and move on.

Players and managers come and go, we just have to accept it, it's only us fans that stay loyal
 
There is clearly a disconnect between owner and manager. Who is going to win the battle? For me common sense says you must sell Guehi whilst there is still value in doing so. If we can get 2 replacements in for not much more than we get for Guehi then that has to make sense.

I don’t subscribe to the it’s too late to sell Guehi because Lerma has stepped in previously into the 3 so that could be done if it takes a couple of weeks to bed in a new player.

I get Glasner is hacked off but I’d rather have two new players in now on 5 year deals rather than try to replace Guehi next year when he is leaving for nothing. Would Glasner leave on the back of Parish insisting on a Guehi sale, who knows!
 
Maybe Glasner is making a stand or perhaps he’s doing the club’s work in talking up how essential our captain is and we’re not gonna sell him for £35m, especially at this stage.

Liverpool are in trouble defensively- if they fail to reinforce and it costs them the title - for the sake of an additional £10m - can you imagine?

Cheapskates!!
If Isak goes there they will have spent nigh on £500M this summer alone.
What is the odd £10m difference on Guehi. £45M all day long.
 
If Guehi goes now and we get 2 quality centre backs to replace him Glasner will have the international break and the rest of September to integrate them into the team before the European matches start in October. We’ll have a back 3 of Richards, Lacroix and Lerma for September/early October with the newbies coming in as and when ready/needed.

I can understand the valid points that you make, but come at it from a different perspective.

If Guehi stays this season he will have completed 5 years at the club having joined for £18 million.
He is quite possibly one of our lower paid players in the absence of a renewal while newcomers such as Kamada and Henderson earn significantly more.
In the crazy world of football finance, we have his services at a comparative bargain.

He's been our most consistent player over 4 years, is our captain, rarely unavailable and barely makes a mistake.
Glasner has continually expressed a desire to retain him and has suggested he is the cornerstone of our defensive solidity.

I think he's so important that he could be worth a few places in the Premier League and be the difference in how far we progress in cup competitions.
This difference can't be proved obviously, but I'm less convinced than others that he would be so easy to replace based on the few games he has missed where stand ins have featured.
Glasner doesn't sound convinced either.

Glasner also said Guehi has never asked to leave or indicated he wants to go.
He said he's fully committed to the club (unlike the likes of Isac and Wissa).
I don't run the club's finances, but 5 years of magnificent service for £18 million and not exorbitant wages sounds reasonable these days even if does leave on a free.
 
I think you make a good case for keeping Marc but at the same time we don't want to lose him for nowt. So perhaps we recruit 1 or 2 CBs now (hopefully Canvot is coming) and then start integrating them, so Marc can be sold in the January window.That way both Parish and Glasner get what they want.

All very valid, but is one year worth £40m?

For me the best option too, interested to see what his value will be in Jan.
 
Although there are no guarantees that Liverpool can / will wait until Jan - no doubt they are considering alternatives given their defensive frailties so far this season, if Liverpool move on where does that leave Marc ?
& who will bid what in January?

It does sound pretty decent. But 4 years of magnificent service and a 20m profit sounds a little better.
