That's some of the worst logic I've ever read. Firstly because the guy has obviously matured into a pretty dangerous footballer. And secondly because there are some utterly shit players at Man Utd. If he wasn't that good, Arsenal wouldn't want him. They do so need to pay the going rate. Not that I ever blame anyone for trying to get a deal. Your perogotive. And everyone else's to laugh at you.

Paid Members Gus Mears Posted July 11, 2019 Paid Members Share Posted July 11, 2019 I just feel like they haven't yet had a complete unmitigated disaster of a season where they finish 10th and get knocked out of all of the cups early on. So hoping this year might be the year. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Zaha is a good player but £80m will get you any of the top players in Europe outside of England. It's a laughable fee. I've already said that it is Palace's right to seek out (read: extort) the best deal out of anyone who chooses to come in for him. I could put my house on the market for £500k. Ultimately, if some millionaire with more money than sense pulls the trigger on it, he can't be surprised when he could have got a much better home for the price.

BrodyGraham Posted July 17, 2019 Share Posted July 17, 2019 Bruce confirmed at Newcastle and looking more and more likely that Ashley is going to sanction some big signings, (Well by our standards anyway!). Joelinton from Hoffenheim for £36m and Alan Saint-Maximin for around £25m. Why couldn't we spend this money, when we had a good manager? It's gonna be Schteve all over again.  Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Paid Members Devon Malcolm Posted July 17, 2019 Paid Members Share Posted July 17, 2019 Joelinton is shite. Ashley's only buying him so he'll flop and then he's got an excuse to not spend any more. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Paid Members PunkStep Posted July 17, 2019 Paid Members Share Posted July 17, 2019 This is only after Rondon and Perez have gone, with other clubs sniffing around Schar as well. You have to worry for Newcastle next season. Plus, Joelinton is average. Trippier has gone to Atleti. That's a weird one, I suppose they need somebody to whip crosses in for that donkey Morata.

SuperBacon Posted July 17, 2019 Share Posted July 17, 2019 Fair play to Trippier. Gave everything every time, even if he did make mistakes and was big enough to own that and take responsibility last season when it was clear he was struggling. Not many players do that. Sure he’ll do well over there. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Have I slept until February by accident? They'll finish 17th on goal difference, Ashley will call it a success. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
