Time to start doing Business Steve..!!

Conference League it is then.

Sky Sports are reporting that Palace will lose in the region of £20m in revenue as a result.

While that figure can be questioned, if accurate you can see why the club has been so passive in the transfer market.

Let's hope that Palace can now focus fully on bolstering the squad in the remainder of the window.

It's only those figures if you compare winners of both and being realistic we was never going to win Europa League (we have spend only 2m he don't have squad)

I see Grealish has gone to Everton on loan which is good we wont be touching him.

I still don't agree - we have been almost uniquely passive compared with the division; every club bar one has been considerably more active than us, and most have no revenue coming from Europe.

The screenshot is a few days out of date by now - Villa have since confirmed Guessand so you can add ~ £30m to their total...

We're miles off it - a £20m swing in revenue surely isn't a good enough excuse? Particularly with the context of our horrendous start last season, and the assurances made to Glasner as a result.

I love Parish and I think he's far and away our best ever owner, but that doesn't make him or the club immune from criticism - I think criticism of this window is very reasonable given all of the context.

Well I still think it was a factor and not the only reason . And Parish himself has referenced it.
I’ve said on numerous occasions that his promise of getting business done early hasn’t been delivered on and yes, criticism of the window to date is understandable.
Now we know where we are competitively in Europe I’m sure we’ll see some movement

Definitely a factor, no denying that, but alone it's not enough to explain the complete lack of activity for me.

I do agree that I think we'll still see 2 or 3 come in before the end of the window, but I don't agree that would then make our inactivity to date ok - whatever we do from now, we've been too slow.

Are you retarded I believe yes is the answer.

Both won so look at that it is around 20m

Watching an interview with Glasner post match he said that Kamada will miss the Chelsea game but he didn't mention Guehi (he was walking ok after the game though).

Hughes was excellent today when he came on for Kamada.

I think today demonstrated that Devenny has a good temperament which augurs well for his future.
Guehi had cramp so should be fine - assuming he is not sold.

As Glasner mentioned this weekend we need 2 players ASAP - a forward and a defender. Whilst the 3 forwards are great as are the 3 CBs if anyone of those 6 gets injured we are immediately in trouble.

Clearly if either MG or Eze were to leave this transfer window they would also need replacing, so potentially we need 4.

However, as SP also mentioned we are Crystal Palace - there is a limited amount of cash and we can't force players to come. I wonder if we matched the Villa fee for Guessand (which appears to be similar to what we paid for Nketiah) and he chose to go there. It happens.

Anyway, we know the European outcome now so we have a confirmed budget - a younger and hopefully better Ayew (who plays across the forward line) and a CB who can also play full back would be ideal additions.

We have the loan options 2 - Chelsea have 2 or 3 young players who would benefit from a decent loan

We have - and continuing to moan about it isn’t going to change it !

Thanks for that abusive rant, i will show it to my down syndrome daughter, C**t

The idea that we can’t criticise decisions made or not made by the club we all support just seems a bit weird to me.

Nothing any of us say on any thread on here is going to change anything at the club - if that were the criteria to share your opinion, none of us would post anything!

Jeez when have I ever said that we can’t criticise the club ? Never is the answer. I criticise them myself when I feel it’s merited - but continually moaning about the same thing…go right ahead it’s good to vent sometimes !

So what are you saying..? You agree that we haven’t done enough to date, but there’s no point talking about it, and anyone who does want to talk about it is just moaning?

Great.

Well what more is there to say ?

It’s happened. Move on.

Well at least that’s what I’m doing - what you do is up to you - frankly I really don’t care !

Totally agree - see McAtee now going to Forest..!!

We’re going to be feasting on scraps at this rate..!!

Come on SP time to start backing the Manager that has just won us two major trophies by beating the best team in Europe over the last 5 years in one and the run away Prem league winners from last season in the other..!!

Making OG our greatest ever Manager - no dispute..!!

For a big fee. The problem with buying these young players from the big clubs (in addition to paying inflated prices) is identifying which ones of them are good enough to do the job in a lesser team. When you have the quality that the likes of Arsenal, Citeh, Liverpool and Chelsea have their young players given playing time can look better than they are simply because of the quality players around them. We need to be looking at prospects that are no more than £15-20m from lesser clubs and from the Championship IMO.

In this window, it's a case of strengthening the bench rather than replacing 1st team players (so far). McAtee doesn't fit that profile at the fee Citeh wanted.
