Right backs who would cost up to 5 million and who would offer near or above Wan Bissaka quality should he leave for a big sum:

Almamy Toure (Monaco)

Tavernier (Rangers)

Jeremy Toljan (Dortmund doesn't use him)
Rafael (last 6 months contract with Lyon, though he plays as starter and they're qualified in the Champions League)

Felix Passlack (Norwich doesn't use him)

Loic Nego (Mol Vidi)

Tinnerholm (New York City FC)

Johan Larsson (Brondby, out of contract next month)

Ezequiel Schelotto (if you can take from Weed, cause they don't use him)

Michael Lang (cost Moenchengladbach 2 million, could sell for more, absolutely ravashed Man Utd last year)

Andres Lopez and Jose Quintero from South America's Ecuador (next Valencia?)

Abderrahmane Hachoud (MC Algier)

even Fran Karacic who is growing up quite well in Croatia

I'd have named Daryl Janmaat from Watford too, but he's getting old

There are options to replace a player if you know where to look. Club should sell when they think they can get the best price for a player. I can't think AWB will ever be valued more if he stays at Palace. With the older he will get, his value will decrease, just my 2 cents. Sure, you could wait out for the end of the league and if we don;t go down, let him play in the U21 Euro finals in Italy in the summer as a starting right back for England U21 and sell him after that.

Please elaborate!

He is gaining experience all the time, the more he plays against the top players the better player he will become. I think that would be a good contest against West Ham, because he will be up against Anderson.

We will then see how far he has come. Personally I think he will be the best full back in The Premiership within the next 2 years and possibly one of the best in Europe in the next 5!

Zaha is 26 years old and it feels like he's been here a life time. He could literally stay another 2 seasons and still leave at 28, young, in his prime and worth £80mil from any big club.

They'd still get 5 top years out of him. That's if Zaha wants to leave of course but he clearly values how Palace treat him and it's evidence how much better he plays now than when we were in the Championship and a lot better than either of his Man Utd or Cardiff spells.

Wan-Bissaka is raw talent that needs to be nurtured and we can prove we offer that. Will we have a problem keeping him? Like Wilf, yes, if the definition of keeping him is from the age of 18-34.

But short term, we can definitely keep him for another 3 seasons at the least, which will be massive for us.

Has played 90 minutes against City twice and bossed Sane about the entire time on both occasions.

Alexander Arnold? Both very very good.

i would like to think he wont be leaving before the end of the season.

hes a £50m defender right now. and i could defo see him on utds radar.

Didn't make his debut until Feb last year. If you are referring to the 0-0 that was Fosu Mensah

He seems happy and wants to stay - i think with all players, the agent is crucial - he could be just wanting a quick return and not offering the best advice.

If it were me, stay at palace until it's obvious he is destined for better things - if we solidify ourselves as a comfortable mid table club, no reason why he can't enjoy two more seasons here at least.

His sale would give the club 2/3 new signings. That's the bigger picture.

Same with wilf - unless we as a club have an excellent 2nd half of the season, i expect him to be off in july and naturally i think the 2/3 players in his place are needed.

However, do i trust the board/scouts to make the right choices.

This was once a quality forum....

If anyone skins him and scores on Boxing Day, he'll be worth two bob*.

I rate him, but he still needs time to mature. I just hope he doesn't lose his 'I got this' attitude.
