If two defenders are on their way out, then it’s highly likely to be Cashin (loan) and Igor (transfer). There’s no way Webster will be going - he was class the second half of this season, and his presence in and around the team is also important.

Surely that must be a spoof??!

Much as it pains me to say it, I'm sure Palace will do enough to finish at least lower-mid table (say, 12th!). Even with Europe to contend with, they have enough quality in the squad. However, as you say, if Glasner left (and maybe one or two stand-out players) then my view would change...

I've been very dubious of the Palace business model for years, and have been expecting it to crash spectacularly at some stage....but recent signings have generally been pretty successful (even after a slow start - eg: Mateta). The likes of Wharton, Munoz, Lerma, Lacroix have had really good...

I’m hoping this year Tony will take the approach he took after the play-off defeat to Sheff Weds, and really go for a top 5/6 place next season. That means holding on to all the key players - with the likely exception of Mitoma (although it would be wonderful to keep him too!).

Next season promises to be pretty interesting - virtually half the EPL will be playing in Europe, with all the strain that brings. Plus Bournemouth, Wolves and possibly Palace losing some key players. Then you have United possibly having to sell Fernandes, and in massive transition...

Ha ha ha ha !!

Also, nice to spot that Crystal Palace were formed in 1905 (not sometime in the 17th century as I think their fans like to think). Albeit, as we know, the current CPFC dates from 2010….

Fab's had a LOT to deal with this season....not only adjusting to a new league (and a MUCH higher overall standard of football), also adjusting to a new country, all the added media spotlight, recovering from the 7-0 defeat, having to manage Dunky's lack of form, the "spat" between JP and van...

I think the fact that Textor doesn't influence control over Palace will save them (from an earlier article in the Guardian: "Parish owns just over 10% of the club but effectively retains overall control. He is the executive chairman of the managing company that is in charge of Palace, with the...

Her actual words were: “Mass deportation now, set fire to all the f***ing hotels full of the bastards for all I care, while you’re at it take the treacherous government and politicians with them. I feel physically sick knowing what these families will now have to endure. If that makes me racist...

I would expect he got a very nice signing on fee, so the cost to us won't be zero.

Reims are also involved in the two-legged relegation play-off (first leg tonight - ie, 3 days before the French cup final), and second leg next Wednesday.....so hopefully they won't be 100% focussed on the cup final....

I think it's also complicated by the fact that Lyon have been relegated (for the purposes of which French league they play in next season). It seems that, in order to play in Europe next season (whether Europa League or Conference) they need to demonstrate their finances are in order - and...

Well, judging by how the team reacted at Wolves, and last night, it may be the right time to say goodbye to Pedro. He's a class player, and his penalties are amazing, but Gruda proved yesterday what a decent no. 10 he is.....and even O'Reilly had a decent game when he came on in that position.

I think Sunderland would struggle massively....but agree, the levels of entitlement (and media love-ins) would be through the roof with Leeds AND Sunderland.

Wieffer has been a revelation at RB the last couple of games. He seems to have that knack (à la Caicedo) of somehow just getting a toe to the ball when tackling from behind or the side. I'd imagine it's definitely "cheerio" to Tariq, and probably Igor. I think Cashin needs a loan at a top...

Me too - but the result is that Forest now have to WIN on Sunday to get Champions League football…..which may be helpful. Without that equaliser for Leicester, Forest would only need a point against Chelsea (or possibly not even a point, if other results went their way). And Nuno would...

Some (most?) of our football was a joy to watch (Liverpool's too)....great entertainment. Top marks, especially, to Gruda, Weiffer, Webster, Minteh, Baleba, JPVH, Pervis (except that ridiculous shot at the end), Ayari....and lovely cameos from Mitoma and Jack. More of that, please!

That was one of the best moments I’ve witnessed in my 56 years of watching the Albion.
