[MENTION=31]El Presidente[/MENTION] Don't Palace have a bit of a financial hole to fill? With current wages and commitments on previous purchases, don't they HAVE to sell someone to balance the books? Sadly, AWB is the wrong choice really, since his wages were very modest in comparison to others.

I don't know how any of them can have any confidence in Roy.
He now has got to be the worst manager in the Premier League, with perhaps Ole challenging him for that title.

I see no progress at all up the road, so if they are to lose the players that were responsible for points last season, where are they coming from this season?

Didn't he take over with Palace struggling.

Under him they have been 10th and 12th.

Not too shabby is it really

Yes but facts don't really come into it. :lol:

I'm probably wrong on this too but don't palace regularly pull their cobblers out of the fire (as we were dangling ours into it) just in time, despite being shitehouse for x consecutive months?

I can't see Zaha going anywhere. The money in football is so mad now, that it's created a weird middle-market tier of 'unbuyable' players who are worth way more to their current club than any prospective buyer will pay. £100m for Maguire. £80m for Zaha. £60m for Hudson-Odoi.

Wan-Bissaka going for £45m+ is a perfect example. If anyone came in for Dunk, he may be older than AWB but he's got 200+ senior appearances and an England cap, we could easily ask for the same sort of money.

Thats money that no other similar sized club could afford, and the top 6 won't pay for a player who is unlikely to be first pick.

Good to see the Yanks being able to pocket a nice return on their investment.

I think Arsenal would suit, he’d still be in London with his friends and family which is a big one for him.

What I'd never noticed before was that Dwayne Dibbly was a Palace fan, with a front row seat behind the goal. Amazing.

Point of order Mr. Chairman: Is Wilf carrying a prohibited THERMOS and a LID in that photograph? The man truly is a MENACE.

Realistically they have to sell before they can buy as Zaha, Benteke, Sakho, Meyer are all on more that £100k a week.
