Think people who are saying `keep him at the moment and sell him next year` are forgetting that the offer is on the table now. Man United won't wait a year to sign a right back, a position they need to fill after Valencia has left and Young not getting any younger (ahh the pun). United need to build and it all seems that they are having a change in recent policy of bringing in younger potential talent (bought the young fella from Swansea). Life is often about timing. United's need is now and which other clubs are in the position to, or have the will to pay 50-60 mill for AWB?

Are you a United fan?

why do you care about the money?

Are you a football fan or a bank manager?

Hypothetically £60m buys two quality players that strengthen the first eleven. We generally have naturally defensively minded managers, so right back isn't that vital a position to have a world class player. No brainer to sell him if we get £60m. Any less and reject it.

I'm a football fan who is smart enough to know that the future of any club is based on it's finances.

Why any fan would approve of selling our best talent is beyond me.
When you have watched as many years of mediocrity as I have to support this club, it seems totally pointless to splash out season ticket money just to see any hope of success disappear out the door every time.

Because everybody has their price? Are you saying you’d never sell?! Really?! So if it was £2bn you’d still reject the offer? Ultimately if comes down to “can we do something which better furthers the club with this money?” And at £60m Parish will likely conclude “yes”. I for one think he’s right. Top quality right backs are a luxury item and replaceable with a slightly inferior player without a massive drop in points.

Can you hear yourself?

Why does the modern Palace fan even bother to go to games?
They should just read The Financial Times instead.

But the real question is whether every player has his price. And the answer is yes.

 


If you want to live in a world full of kindness, respect and love, try to show these qualities.

Absolutely £60 million could buy 3 top quality players, who honestly thinks this will not improve the squad. And yes I am a Palace fan through and through

It would enlarge the squad but you can only play eleven.

20 million buys you average these days and if we 'need' to sell AWB then what makes you think that money will be spent on players?

It won't will it.

I'd let him go for 100 million.

Now that is a different scenario..there would be total unrest (and fully justified). Perhaps we would see what size cojones Parish has (without asking Susannah!!)

People are saying that we need to sell him.

If that is true then you can not expect to see much of that money spent on players.

People who also seem keen to sell are saying that the wage bill needs reducing. So one modestly paid player is sold and people expect us to improve the squad by putting even more players on the wage bill?

Conclusion. People talk bollocks.

If your going to quote or paraphrase, do it correctly. Not need to sell but sell if the price is a good one for Palace.

I can't disagree with you there mate, it might be a big influx of money if he is sold but let's face it we need two right backs then and any right back worth his salt is going to cost 20mill plus, and the wage bill will continue to rise . I reckon the best course of action would be to keep him for another season at least ! Unless silly money is offered . Give him a pay rise . He has already said he wants to be a palace player next season.

 


oh yeah ,fcuk off brighton.

We wouldn't need two. Ward and Kelly could provide cover. £20M for a right back, plus money to cover key positions like a ball playing midfielder, striker, or back up winger would help.

Have you lot not seen the dross we spent £30million on. We need to hold on to Wan Bissaka as long as we can!!!

That should be 'you're'.

I would not sell for any amount. I want to see good football, not a stack of cash.
Selling our best players will not be good for our chances of staying up and that is what I care about.

When you hit the point where you argue corrections of grammar rather than the point that has been made you show yourself to be on a losing argument.

Or quibbling about paraphrasing perhaps?

Argument? What argument?

There was only people talking nonsense and me putting them right.

No disrespect ment but do you really think Ward still has the pace to play in the premier league? Kelly is in his prime but gets a nose bleed anytime he passes the half way line. Even if AWB stays we will need right back cover. We need cover in most areas but getting rid of Arron is not the answer . And the wage bill ?
