Summer Transfer Window 2019

[Wayno]

Would Palace not have to send United 25% of the players?
Like some fingers and stuff?

25% of McCarthy would improve United’s midfield

 

[tungetango]

One Cuco, too

I keep forgetting him regularly

 

[AmericasToffee]

Going to be some juicy hmmbargoes tonight?

When was the last time we bid or signed anyone for £95 million

The 'drunken sailor' days of two years ago when we spunked all the family jewels on the footballing equivalent of those hideous garden gnomes you see in Asda

why don't we give palace Bolasie? that way they get a winger..

 

[BlueStevie35]

I know it isn't really the case but if this fake bid was actually true I can't get past the fact that we're sort of offering £95m for Wilfried Zaha

I thought and hoped those days were over

Where you getting £95m from?

 

[blue to the bone]

Probably because he is terrible and they know that

 

[Librarian]

It’s definitely happening, Richarlison and Zaha up front.... just in time for VAR, Everton

 

[andy4efc]

Just having a josh mate. We're not realistically aiming higher than Everton this season or probably for the foreseeable future. We're not in the same market because we're making Selhurst even grander in the near term.
I agree McCarthy would be good if fit but we don't really need a DM and imho Benteke is a better all round player than Tosun.

McCarthy isn’t relly a DM as he steps forward and presses like crazy. Issue is he’s had two very unfortunate injuries in a row. Keep him fit would be an addition.

And Tosun would be a decent addition. Not a world beater but would’ve goals.

The Sky stories might make sense as a face-saving excersize by Palace. If he wants to leave, we seem to be his (and their) only option. If there is no bidding war there is no way we jumped from £52/£55m to what a negotiator would say is equivalent to £80m+.

I can't see the leak coming from our side, so why would it come from Palace? Because when he signs for an undisclosed fee in a few days and Palace get two (or more) of our players, everyone will think they played hardball and got a great price.

United might get a surprise when the cheque for their 25% arrives though.

What on earth are you valuing the players at there?! Is that you Steve?

 

[navidson]

The £55m added to the £13m and £27m we paid for McCarthy and Tosun

 

[billytoffee]

Going to be some juicy hmmbargoes tonight?

Doubt it!

 

[Mathieubleucoyb]

Zaha didn't show up to training today...

 

[BlueStevie35]

The £55m added to the £13m and £27m we paid for McCarthy and Tosun

Cute you think we’re breaking even on both
