Someone needs to pull his string.
Glasner has just given a characteristically upbeat press conference.
He said that both Eze and Guehi are scheduled to start v Chelsea on Sunday , but added that he’d been in football a long time and knows how things can change before then.
I don’t know what anyone else thought watching it, but it wouldn’t surprise me if both go - possibly in the last week of the window when the pressure to conclude deals it at it’s highest.
Clearly clubs aren’t willing to pay Eze’s release clause, but that doesn’t mean they can’t come in with lower bids leaving Palace with a decision to make if they need funds to do their own trading.
With Guehi , Parish has been pretty explicit that he can’t countenance him leaving on a free
Glasner wasn’t asked about incomings at all in the broadcast section.
It may be those morsels will be reserved for the press in the section released later.

I think he seemed a little bit downbeat- albeit was delivering a positive overview
No real clues as to the future of Guehi or Ebs.
It must be a real kick in the nuts to be (potentially) losing two of your best players and more importantly brilliant characters that you have become close to. Throw in the disappointment and injustice of the UEFA debacle and it’s totally understandable why he wasn’t his usual chirpy self!

I’d say that concludes our transfer business now until we sell someone first or are able to get in some loans. Is this lad a goalkeeper/defender/attacker/ right wing back and does he know how to lay the foundation for a new stand? Perhaps the coup of the summerHold ya horses lads, stop ya whinging, we've signed a player . . . yup, you heard right

From the Palace press release it appears that the lad has the ability to time travel!
"Hailing from Devon, the 20-year-old shot-stopper started out at Torquay United’s academy before breaking through with Exeter City in 2015, where he was regularly named in the senior matchday squad despite being just 15."

Five matches across 14 days and it is only the start of the season yet with a depleted squad already...signings MUST be a priority even if on a free at the 11th hour e.g, likes of Willian for experience. What has happened to Chilwell? Can we not get him back on loan?

Can he play CB? If not we don't need him with cover in place for Mitchell. I'd rather use a loan spot for a position we need to cover such as CB and striker

Chillwell is still at Chelsea up for sale but as is the case with all there players they are on high wages and will want a big fee so not really an option plus we signed a left back Sosa.
Willian is too old 37 he was released for a reason and didn't do anything last year.
We need players who are going to compete and improve the squad.
Right back and another one in center are required.
I have horrible feeling we will end up getting someone like Danny Ings

Why is it that I would be okay for Danny Ings on the bench? 🙂

Well Spammers just signed Callum Wilson who I would have been quite happy with, certainly an upgrade on Nketiah even if he is "in the autumn of his career".

You can factor in the CAS appeal and the uncertainty over Guehi and Eze, but it has been p*ss poor. We need back up in defence, regardless of the other situations and we've only got Sosa in, we do have depth in midfield, Guessand would have given us all the back up we needed up front and didn't cost a fortune, but to not have arranged for at least one versatile central defender to come in at this late stage, in defiance of what Glasner has clearly warned against, is unforgiveable. We know there's a budget but you have to have a squad fit for purpose before the beginning of August, especially given our start last year. If Guehi goes there has to be an immediate replacement so I can see a Liverpool player arriving in a swap with cash, possibly Joe Gomez. I think Parrish wants to get one more season out of Eze. If we can keep him for another year that will partly offset the lack of incoming players, but I'm baffled as to why we haven't got any back-up central defenders in.
16 days, fingers crossed

How can they not pay his clause but instead pay under it then?

And why have a buy-out clause which expires before the transfer window to allow the opportunity unless it's a way for the club to have a way of selling players we no longer want even though the asking price hasn't been met. If that's the case with Eze we might as well give up.
Once the release clause expires it no longer has application.
Clubs are free to offer less and then it becomes a question of whether Palace accept a lower fee and whether Eze is happy to go.
What would push the fee up is if there was a bidding war between clubs (e.g Spurs v Arsenal), but this seems unlikely as it’s already been demonstrated that clubs were unwilling to meet the release clause (assuming it has already expired).
