[ASCPFC]

I'd like Palace to buy Yamal

One excuse for not building the New Main Stand.

[Eagleman13]

His original contract was up to June this year, so the 1 year extension means we have to suffer him for one more season unless we can offload him somehow.

I suspect Glasner has washed his hands of him as I can imagine Edouard reacting badly to OG's training regime and demands about playing for the team etc..

If it was up to me, I'd give him away to any club that wanted him and, if necessary, offer to pay part of his wages for the next 12 months just to get rid of him.

Thanks doombear, i know you keep a record of these things, appreciate it.

A cheeky bid for that Barcelona Yamal fellow wouldent go amiss 😱

We are his preferred destination, he just doesn't have a clue who we are.

Perhaps he'll learn at school tomorrow.

When I mentioned signing Yamal, it was obviously tongue in cheek but I've not been so impressed by a young player since I saw Messi.
He also appears blessed with a very good temperament and a real enjoyment of playing the game.
What would a young Zaha be worth now?
He had as many ways of beating a player as any player as I've seen.
Dazzling footwork, and speed too in his younger days.

Desire Doue of PSG is also extremely talented.

I agree.
I just hope this natural talent isn't 'coached out' of them.

interestingly he is Leicester 2nd highest earner after Vardy (who they are releasing now they've been relegated).

I think we will struggle to find a team prepared to pay his full wages next season - a transfer fee on top seems wishful thinking.

Shame as there's a decent player in there somewhere

Agree, Yamal is the best teenager I've seen since Messi - only Mbappe really comes close over the last 10 years or so, and Yamal looks so much more polished already.

Whatever his faults, Zaha was a genuinely world-class dribbler - the list of all time dribbles completed in Europe's 'big five' leagues since they starting collecting the data (06-07) is:

Messi - 2358
Hazard - 1285
Ribery - 1061
Neymar - 984
Zaha - 972
Cristiano Ronaldo - 937

That's some list to be on.

Also demonstrates what an absolute freak of nature Messi is.

The Sun is running a story that Glasner is 'relaxed' about Eze and Guehi leaving in the summer, that he wants more physical strength and consistency in the team and that he wants 6 new players in a rebuild.

I'm sure Glasner has not been giving an interview to the Sun along these lines, so you have to surmise it's conjecture and speculation.
Bellingham is mentioned as a potential incoming and I do think he'll leave Sunderland in the summer, but some top clubs seem interested in him too.
With regard to Eze, there's no doubt of his tremendous ability but it may be that we could get a better fit for the front 3 role that Eze has been shoehorned into in Glasner's system.

I agree, in Glasners set up, Sarr on the left, and Olise, on the Right would have been better, so we need an Olise Clone For Glasner, that saying a 4-2-3-1 would suit Eze perfectly, or 4-4-1-1.

Where was Vince Hilaire, He's normally, here and there, and every..............

Honestly, I don’t see us letting them both go, I think they’re too much of integral parts of the team.

It doesn't look like Guehi will sign a new contract and Eze has a release clause so we may not have much say in the matter.
Last season it almost seemed that Parish was advertising Eze's services in that infamous interview.

He wants 6 players but how many 18 yr old Scottish Goalies or 17 yr old N.Irish players does he want? Plus, we bought the young Australian none of us will ever see again. So that's one.
Like Sarr, look at the players we've been after for years - and that's who we'll get. The main one I can think is Bright Osai-Samuel. Or something like that (I always get the name wrong). Linked since we signed Eze more or less. We'll presumably get him sometime. There's also a striker we've looked at for two years or so.
I think we can all agree, we're not that quick at transfers.

 

[Fanofzhiyi]

It seems clear even winning the fa cup would not be enough to keep Guehi. Hopefully we can get a good deal. Perhaps Chalobah and money if the Chelsea rumours are true.

For Eze as others have said perhaps there are players better suited to Glasners style and Eze deserves a crack at champions league just like Guehi. It’s the reality that we need to sell to buy. It will be easier to deal with if we lift the fa cup! We can then attract very good players

You have to believe the Lacroix, Sarr, Munoz, Riad, Esse, Kamada and Wharton were signed with Glasners approval, as he knew he was to become manager, he thought the start of 24/25, but had to take over earlier, not many errors, the system is everything to Glasner, so i expect a Left footed CB, to go with Riad, when he hopefully gets fit, a left footed, right winger, a LWB, and cover for Muñoz, and a goalkeeper, and another CF, could be the six, Plus the return of Doucoure, Ozoh, Ahamada, Edouard, Rak-Sakyi and hopefully a full and successful pre-Season for Franca.

I'd forgotten Ahamada. As far as I can see he's only played 3 games for Rennes.
