I guess you just approach the agent instead? And I’m sure that is exactly how the so called big clubs like it, allows them to unsettle their targets without breaking any rules.
The club did that before this ludicrous turn of events. This time they need to stick to it.
We don’t have to. If he leaves, we lose him at a pivotal point. If he stays and sulks we also lose him at a pivotal point but he’ll still be worth the same in the summer. It’s different to the likes of Bissouma and Trossard whose contract situation meant their value would quickly depreciate. I think the decision really is how much disruption keeping him would cause in the squad and whether we need to send a message that agents will not dictate our transfer policy. In my opinion, we have to stand firm on this one. Not to spite Caicedo but because the timing is totally unreasonable.
There’s more that unites us and Palace than divides us in comparison to the self appointed ‘Big 6’ and the Tyneside nouveau-riche. Bar 2 days a year, I’m with you on that feeling.
It's not about the balance sheet. It's about recruitment.
I’m assuming that is his agent writing that bollocks. Whoever it is, it is patronising, condescending and downright rude. I hope our club does everything it can to curtail players and agents calling the shots, contracts need to be more enforceable.
Hopefully we stand firm as the importance of this stance reaches far further than this individual player
I assumed the Arsenal angle was them put a marker down for the summer to show internet, I didn’t think for a second Caicedo would sanction this message after what he said 3 days ago
Absolutely, how we act on this one (with it being high profile) sets the scene how we do business.
if MC has given the go ahead for that tweet or whatever to be made public then he's been rather naive to say the least , if his agent has published masquerading as him then shirley that is verging on criminal.
I see. It's all Tony's fault. Silly me. Never thought of that.
