60 Million for a RB, i didn't realise we bid for Alexander Arnold.
60 Million should really get us both him and Zaha but the footballing world has gone mad. Maybe we ought to just tack on Dalot and 30 mill and call it a day.

If we don't sign Wan Bissaka we're apparently targetting Max Aarons, a championship player (yes, the young player of the year there but a freaking championship player) to be our starting RB.

Hey the Munier option was there all along to be done for half that, but if they're hell bent on future proofing now then so be it. 50 is more than fair offer, which is supposedly what we've offered by all accounts we've started making noises about getting Aarons from Norwich who is Palace's AWB replacement, just to give Palace a little nudge back to reality.
If it's done, it'll be 50 plus add-ons you'd have thought.

Aye, think we’ll get it done for around 50m. Top talent, brilliant defensively, does need to work on his attacking game but that will improve I’m sure. Very down to earth from what I’ve heard and read, we need players who want to better themselves and are up for the fight.

Here's hoping we can get him sorted sooner rather than later. We still need two top CB's realistically if we are to compete for the title next year (and a lukaku replacement if he really is gone).

Here's some proper muppetry, We're in for Griezmann and are looking to hijack that deal. Well for Atleti that can only be a good thing to see him out of the league entirely rather than playing for a title rival.
Obviously Griezmann would be a huge boost for us given that we may be selling Lukaku, we'll need to replace that output somehow (even if its in the form of a #10 rather than a 9).

Longstaff and Issa Diop are now being linked for 25 million and 45 million respectively.
Both would be very good signings.
Apparently Lukaku's deal may be up in the air due to the fact we're holding out for the full 80 mill (honestly, i'd just say Skriniar + 5-10 mill for Lukaku and call it a day).

Personally, if Madrid don't cough up and he starts being difficult, I'd freeze him out till his contract expires.

His best season  The same as Lukaku, I would like them to stay to give us some stability going into next season and then move them on but if they really want leave and whoever wants them pays up then fine. Not up for hard graft then cheerio. |

This will be going down to the wire, none of this will be sorted in time for Ole's 'drill camp', you'll be lucky if half of what we need gets completed by deadline day.

No surprise on Pogba, i'd force Real Madrid to give up some nice goodies (i.e. Asensio and Isco) to get Pogba, the money isnt a huge issue unless we're really going for Mbappe (who i maintain should be a priority given he wants out and isn't a primadonna like Pogba) or even Griezmann.
Tielemans would be an alright replacement for Pogba long term, but now, i'd rather see us get Milinkovic Savic, not really a replacement, but still a world class CM.

a 35+15 bid for Wan Bissaka was rejected, with reports indicating that Palace will probably accept a straight 50 million bid.
Lets just get this done tbh, its about 20 milion too much but whatever, we need a good RB.

I've got a sneaky feeling that if AWB comes in, and it looks like he is (eventually), Dalot will be your new RW for a season.  |
