Listen guys, we refused to agree terms with Oumar Niasse on deadline day and good thing too. Point is we're not pushovers and we tend to keep it quiet and try and be smart. There have been exceptions like with Meyer where we got sold out for inflated wages but there aren't too many.
I ain't got nuthin' funny to say. Sorry.

We have a business plan and as someone pointed out those in charge have no intention of having their proverbial pants pulled down in January!

I am not unhappy about not having anyone this transfer window. DvB turned us down but at £150k pw Everton can have him. Interesting Lampard didn't sign his contract until after he had bullied the board to get him signed. A little test of the board's commitment methinks!! As for Ramsay at a reported £200k pw he can play for High Wycombe for all I care!
Palace will finish in the top 14. By then we'll know just how good Olise, Eze, Mateta and Eduard are, whether Jimmy Mac has another year in him and exactly where O'Connor will be (many a slip!!). The summer window is important and if it anything like last summers'.....
Always remembering walking from the Holmesdale to the Whitehorse end at half time!

7 weeks of VDB salary pays for Plange - better business for us.
Dele Alli, Berkeley and Aaron Ramsey - no thanks to any of those.
Mateta loan converted - much better than starting Benteke.
Keeping Jesurun RS rather than loaning him out - good move.

In your opinion.
Agree with everything else.

surely not

You know you don't have to comment/reply on every single post I make, hey? We're all aware of your disdain for Benteke and hard on for Mateta.

I find it curious that Ramsey has gone to Rangers. It can't be for the money as I doubt Rangers could match what we offered or did we even offer?
It makes you wonder if we were ever serious about taking him or if it was just his agent.
Mateta deal is done y the way.
One more point

Ideally I would like to have added a central midfield player to bed him in before next season.
If you look at current options we have,
Gallagher (not here next season)
Kouyate (out of contact at the end of the season I believe)
Hughes
Mcarthur ( very good, but older and injury prone now)
Luka ( past his best )
Jairo ( a bit part player)
Schlupp (not really a central midfield player).
I have excluded Eze who management see as a number 10 or wide player.
This shows a real lack of potential options for in central midfield for next season.
Of course by then Mcarthur may be fit, Kouyate may sign a new contract, Luka may rediscover form and Jairo may develop.
But realistically this doesn’t seem likely.

Couldn’t agree more, but if Ambrose is to be believed (and he is still heavily involved in the club), then there will be some business in the summer. Two defensive minded/box to box midfielders probably a minimum with one centre back and a fullback.
