Could cash strapped QPR spending £2m on a forward be a sign of Eze's imminent departure...? [Link]

George Courtney, the World Cup referee, everyone is looking at him. When will he blow....?

Highest bidder; so not se25.

My sense is that it is reaching the nitty gritty final stage of discussions over Eze, and my guess is we should know by the end of this week whether Eze is finally a Palace player, or whether we're moving onto another player? Just guesswork though. I don't have any inside info.

I've been listening to West Ham fans at work, they seem to think he'll be signing for them by the end of next week, and he wants to go there.

Heard an interview with the QPR manager where he said he expected to ‘lose one or two’ of his players before the season.
I understand that Palace are playing a waiting game, but if they lose out on Eze through this procrastination it will be no surprise that fans will be annoyed as it will follow the same pattern in recent windows about not closing deals.

No other clubs are in for Eze at the moment. Right now it's a case of Palace think QPR need to sell so are sticking to their price. QPR are hoping someone will come in and force a bidding war but it's not happening. the rumours of clubs like West Ham after him aren't true, they are merely leaked stories to try and get more bids or make Palace nervous.

I think if we can get Fraser in, it strengthens our position massively as we have that additional wide man. Then we will have more money and our target could change from Eze to someone that was on the radar but possibly too expensive a transfer fee.

If we don't get Fraser, I would expect we might make a bit more of a push for Eze. Until that point, it's sensible to hold off and try and get him for low a price as possible when your budget is limited.
