I find it odd that we are prepared to sell Sam Johnstone for a paltry £10 Million and yet seem to be holding out for an extra few million for Guhei.
I suspect that things are not as the media present them. (Surprise)
I appreciate that Johnstone is said to be homesick and not happy at being No2 but surely an England goalkeeper is worth at least double that.
With Guehi, Parish is either playing the hardest hard ball ever or we have no intention of selling to Newcastle. Another potential buyer has not materialised as yet, and it's getting a bit late.
He is 31 so that will be a factor - most goalies seem to peak around late 20s/early 30s so he is just passed that point. If he was a couple of years younger i'd definitely agree.
He wants to go and Palace are prepared to accommodate this. As we got him on a bosman only 2 years ago that may have an impact too, as will his injury record.
