Palace Summer 2026 transfers?

[Badger11]

Chelsea fans want instant gratification & don't seem to have a lot of positive things to say about anyone that didnt come with £100 million price tag.

I said at the time it was a bad move for him. He was an inexperienced striker with one PL season with a small club. He would have done better going to a club like ours or equivalent for a couple of seasons to learn his trade.

When you are at a top 6 club the fans expect to see the finished article not a young man learning his trade. Ipswich and Palace fans are far more forgiving, if Ipswich had survived I would have told him to stay put for another season.

If JPM is going I would certainly enquire but I suspect Chelsea will want silly money.

David Sullivan might be their man for that. 👍 👍 👍 👍

Indeed - At the time, part of me wondered if Chelsea took him to ensure Ipswich wouldn't survive.

60 games a season, injuries & suspensions will mean were thin on the ground if anything happens

You forget our other striker Nketiah can share the load - er - if he's not injured that is. 😉

I doubt we’ll play 60 games again, probably 48 next season as we’re all brought back down to earth 🤣

He probably got injured again walking up to get his conference medal 🤣

Really? The wage structure would take a bashing.
