Drawing a parallel with the sacking of De Boer is not a strong case. You’ll find few, if any that think sacking him after 4 games and replacing with Roy was a bad move.

Same with Sorloth. I don’t think any player ‘deserves’ a chance. You have to earn each and every start until you’re established in the first team. Sorloth never did that and frankly was terrible for us. No goals, no assists, no effort, no physicality. I’d argue he was mismanaged, which was the club’s fault. He wasn’t ready for the prem and the pressure a big money move bought, but now he has really found his feet.

Good luck to him but he was total and utter crap for us. Sometimes things just don’t work out. Hopefully we’ll get some decent cash from the transfer.

Vive le Roy!

I couldn’t believe my eyes when I watched him play for us. I thought we’d been stitched up.

If there was enough space the title of this thread would IMO better read

"Have a guess at the Sorloth deal terms and conditions and any money we might recoup after he leaves Trabanspor"

Everyone is entitled to have an opinion but no one across the CPFC platforms I have seen actually knows and
CPFC will never make public.

Personally I would like him in our squad but if not at least recoup some of his cost.

Good luck to him

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.

Sörloth was never given a serious chance at Palace, his game time was mainly as sub.

The club must obviously have had a good look at him and it appears they saw nothing special compared to what they had.

Personally I view him as a forward type that Palace aren't set up for. We base our style around counter attacking and while Zaha is here nothing's changing....and that's not Sorloth's game.

I think in a team set up for his playing style he will continue to do well.

It is what it is.....Let's see what the club can get for him.

We are getting 14m +add ons not bad for a player we were willing to accept 6m for! Admittedly I always thought we had negotiated a poor deal and still do but surely this is better than can be expected

Are we? Where has this come from?, More likely is Trab Get the cash and use some to settle buy out clause, then keep the rest as if they do he is their player to sell. Turkish law is dodgy enough to allow a sale of something someone doesn't (quite) own and Palace have stayed very quiet over this whole affair.
