No, because if he had signed the club would announce it as decent signings equate to more tickets and merchandise being sold. They may sit on things for a while whilst they wait for work permits and the like but unusual for this length of time. So, yes, obviously bollox that he signed weeks and weeks ago on a five year deal.

As I said it was likely aspirational and we’re confident we can pull it off - rather than it’s ‘Cheick Doucoure - Done Deal 5yr deal - €20m’

He'll probably go to West Ham.

They’re already suggesting it…

Great news if he signs. My point was it was not a done deal 5 weeks ago, ghat was cobblers - it was likely aspirational. IE someone said we’re going to pull out all the stops.
I’m just grouchy and would rather hear ‘I’ve heard we’re going after this bloke” rather than ‘done deal!’
I know, I’m a pedant!!!!

Told you I was a grouchy pedant!!!

He’s signed. Aspirational or not - great signing and I apologise. Very happy about this.

We can move the 'Cheick Doucoure' thread to 'Palace Talk' now

Was he on the plane for the friendlies. He was in training end of last week so hopefully he had his flight booked... 'Club Class' ;0)

I don't think that's fair. The Club's interests and the fans' (or customers') interests are for the most part identical. We both want success for our Club, and it doesn't strike me as wrong for those operating on our behalf in the murky world of transfer deals to hold their cards close to their chest until those deals are signed, sealed AND DELIVERED. At that point we can celebrate (or usually!)

At the certain risk of lowering the tone, I'm reminded of the female TV chef many years ago who, in explaining one stage in her recipe, remarked that "at this point it's a case of the longer you take over it the better it is at the end". Hmmm.

Quite right, especially when you’ve got shysters like Wet Spam waiting to pounce on our every move!!
Now he’s actually signed, I’m feeling slightly less cynical today

I have a feeling he doesn't yet know the love that will be coming his way. He's going to have a great time here.

If he hits the ground running from day one like Conor G did, then I make you right, and he’ll deserve it
