Mateta Contract

[bovSW]

Not the start to the season we were hoping for..

Sarr pushing for a move and now JP playing up

Mateta claims final year of Palace deal is invalid https://www.bbc.co.uk/sport/football/articles/cdx7x90dxywo

Jeez... You couldn't make this sh*t up! Poor Pierre must be thinking why have I given up Champions League football for this circus!

 

[bright&wright]

* Lose 2 - 0 to Everton.
* Sarr doesn't play, potentially feigning injury to force a move
* Riad gets injured and appears out for a long time (again)
* Mateta makes some ludicrous claim about his contract because he wants out (I expect a call from Forest).

It hasn't been a good day.

Drop him and never play him again, thinks he’s better than what he is.

Easier said than done, if Sarr is leaving between them they scored basically all our goals last year.

 

[Putitout]

He hasn’t wanted to be here for some time. If Strand Larrson didn’t come with question marks, pretty sure we would have sold him at the beginning of the window. Now he is an obvious problem. Makes you wonder why we support some of these guys, his contract is binding ,if he had anything about him , ask for a transfer .

Mateta is a f***ing rat cant stand him especially after what he did last january

 

[Obelix]

Can we start this day again?

 

[Save Dwindlehurst]

What’s the point supporting these greedy cnuts ?

 

[Elphers40]

I think we just need to move him on and get someone else in.

He’s really ruined any affection I once had for him.

As for SARR - do not give him what he wants. Hold firm Palace unless the £60million quid price tag is secured. Disgusting behaviour from him. 😡

 

[ASCPFC]

We need to get a grip on all of this. We'll have no choice but to drop Mateta. This is to force a sale to Spurs no doubt.

 

[Rootsy]

Should never have been welcomed back after the Milan move fell through. Wormed his way back in, got his World Cup dream although he didn't play, and then does this to us once again. We are left with egg on our face. We haven't replaced Lacroix. Sarr wants to leave and is playing the typical 'I've got an injury' the day before our first game. We have great depth, but that's only if we keep our first-team players. If the depth signing becomes our first team due to selling Mateta, Sarr and Lacroix, then we are worse off than before and still have no depth. What an awful day for us. Add to the fact Riad looks to be out for a long time aswell.

Needs to go would rather start Nketiah

 

[ASCPFC]

What strikers have we been linked to? Oh yes, David I think. But I'm not sure that's likely. I'd prefer him to what we have.

Really makes you wonder what the rest of the squad thinks about all this. They were all doing his celebration in Leipzig.

Given what Glasner was saying in public I dread to think what he was saying to the players about Parish which, as he has been in charge for as long as he has, is basically the club.

Why are we selecting Mateta in the light of this?
It seems extraordinary.

Totally agree. I love Mateta and what he has done for us…… but if he wants to leave so badly then I think we have to let him go.

I do think we treated him badly though. Should have signed him on a new deal two years ago. You can’t blame him for being pissed off when he’s scored all the goals but earns far less than those who contribute nothing.
