If he has an underlining medical issue, I think that is a good reason personally.

#CPFC deal for Nathan Ferguson delayed over a fitness issue for #WBA right-back. Clubs to decide if deal goes through #CrystalPalace #WestBrom

Didn't he play the other night?

Although rumoured to be a £10m deal parish probably wants to pay a £5 today with the rest payable as add ons!

 

EddieMac Flag 31 Jan 20 10.57am

If he was to have an underlying issue that the medical picked up and then Palace go an sign him anyway and he breaks down in 4 months the the insurance will be null and void.

Is it not possible to sign him on loan today??

This smacks to me of Palace trying to renegotiate the deal with stage payments and minimum up front expenditure.

Absolutely laughable we resign Wickham without a worry over his fitness!

Responsibility Deficit Disorder is a medical condition. Symptoms include inability to be corrected when wrong, false sense of superiority, desire to share personal info no else cares about, general hubris. It's a medical issue rather than pure arrogance.

Big difference, Wickham was already our player so no signing fee

I was thinking along similar lines. If we muck the boy around, wouldn’t blame him if he told us to f*** off. Watch him sign for another club and become full international

..so it will be Joel Ward and Martin Kelly as our right back options for the rest of this season. Not sure if that is a smart move?

Apparently there is an underlying fitness issue, so he could not slot right into the match squad....and is now back at WBA. I can’t believe we won’t press ahead on this, but maybe SP is haggling now for better terms?

What do palace need out of a player fitness wise ? This kid played 90 minutes the other night , what else do they want ?0

 

Jedinakmyman Flag Leeds 31 Jan 20 12.02pm

It's unlikely to be that he's not up to full fitness. More likely to be something fairly serious that has only presented itself in the medical i.e. underlying knee problem.

Apparently he has the gene to make him prone to male pattern baldness and they don't think that will look good in photos.

Given our problems with long-term injuries it would be foolish to splash out on a player with underlying problems. Hopefully it is not that bad and we get this done so we can turn our full focus to signing another attacking player.

 

Palace in the Blood Flag 31 Jan 20 12.17pm

It depends on size of fee WBA wantand proposed wages. It is possible that these will be renegotiated as he is out of contract in summer so we could just sign him up on pre-contract so he arrives in summer and then WBA receive a much lower payment probably around £300K.

My guess is it will go ahead with WBA initial fee a lot lower but structured so that if problem is sorted they get a higher fee eg a fee paid each season if he plays 75% of our games. His base wages could also be lowered with a bigger basis on extras based on games played

 

Crystal_Clear Flag Belfast 31 Jan 20 12.37pm

With Zabsleta coming in loan, I suspect these medical issues were too significant.

I really hope that we are not gambling on getting him for free in summer. If WBA go up, he may stay or a another club will come in for him with bigger wages.

He has missed a number of games. Would you put your money on a lame horse?
