If we do sign Antonio then my guess is that Zaha will be sold. If he is sold before a suitable (if there can be one) purchase this will inflate any buying price. Hopefully my rationale is wrong.

I hope you are wrong too !!! Is Zaha a winger or striker? If he is now a striker, we need 2 winger - Sako gone and replacement for him. I wonder if he will play both roles in which case Antonio is perfect as he has also play both roles (plus full back).

I can see us getting a defensive midfield to play with or backup Luka. A winger who can play No 10 (max Meyer?) Antonio and a central defender on loan because of Dann's injury. It would not suprise me if both Antonio and Kouyaté arrive. I think the RLC situation is still relevant ,Chelsea will need to make a decision in next few days.

I don't. Palace FB group who are usually pretty spot on. Plus some reports in Germany saying it.

If this right it will be a real coup for Palace - player of this quality on a free when the likes of Arsenal and Liverpool were also reportedly sniffing.

I think Tottenham will boycott this transfer and sign Meyers. There’s news reports coming out mentioning Tottenham now, allbe it nothing concrete yet.


Spurs cannot afford him - he’d blow their wage structure wide open earning more than anyone else at the club. They sign him the repercussions in the squad would be very very costly.

Simple economics. Spurs are in the same place as Arsenal were when they built the Emirates - they have shown the finance providers the books & have a rigid wage structure in place to ensure overheads don’t accelerate and make repayment an issue.

If published numbers are correct, Wilf earns more than Kane & Alli combined.
Mad.

Absolutely. Then question why we have the highest wages to income ratio in the PL.

I have little doubt Spurs will start throwing cash around once the stadium payments reach a certain level just like their friends down the road did.

I keep checking in the hope of an announcement stating we’ve signed him. Am I going to be extremely disappointed?

They already have , Kane and Pochettino have signed bumper new contracts and Ali etc are expected to in the near future too.

Very good shout. Seemed unthinkable, but now is thinkable. Could still have the rug pulled, but if it happens it will be a stunning signing. Fingers crossed.

Possible replacement for Cabaye?

Free agent after falling out with Schalke & big clubs not seeming to be interested. A couple of reports say he wants huge wages but if nobody’s biting maybe worth a punt. Perhaps offer what YC was on plus bonuses.

Started life as a 10 but improved greatly as a deeper playmaker.

Could the poster tell us what the difference is between an 'einfahrt' and an 'ausfarht' ?

The first is one fart and the second in a fart from down under.
