CG to Newcastle in the Summer isn't set in stone either - Originally posted by BelfastEagle
I wonder when he will realise he has no future at Chelsea ? Maybe now they have signed another dozen players he might see the writing on the wall ?

BBC are reporting a loan move only for him.

We are being linked again from a few sources right now. Apparently the detail is basically sorted but Chelsea aren't quite pulling the trigger. Who knows, frankly? Getting tiring but we would all be happy if it happens.

Bloody shame our owners won’t stomp up the cash. Conor and Palace are a perfect fit.

It would be better business to sign two other players for the price of this one. Even if Palace signed him he wouldn't be around long and not enough about him to justify 40m+

At least my epitaph is sorted. 'Did we sign Gallagher yet?'

£25m in the summer should be enough to secure him.

I think had Benfica not strung Chelsea out all day and, thus, the Fernandez saga ran and ran that we might have ended up with Conor yesterday, but his departure from Chelsea was always predicated on Fernandez coming in first and, in the end, time simply ran out. The Lokonga loan, late in the day, tends to support this. We seemingly went in for him at the eleventh hour, probably only when it finally became clear that Conor wasn't going to happen for the reasons above. But the three-month Lokonga loan suggests that, once again, we're keeping our powder dry for one final push for Conor in the summer window. It's now quite clear that Chelsea is prepared to let him leave for the right money, and equally clear that we desperately want him. Either way, this needs to be put to bed. We now know what he'll cost (based on the accepted Everton bid) so we need to go in when the summer window opens (not on deadline day) with the right money and sign him or not. And then move on fast, with him or without him. Agreed once we were in for him it was clear that Gallagher wasn't coming it was one or the other. I would love to know the striker we were supposedly after?

Now Zaha's got a bit of green grass ahead of him here... and finds Ambrose... not a bad effort!!!! |
