Or Semedo?Atal it is then, hopefully.

To be fair, if Palace don't want to sell they're perfectly right to slap ridiculous price tags on their players.
This just means poaching clubs are kept at arms length and if someone does choose to meet the valuation they will receive double/treble/x4/5 the actual value of the player and can laugh all the way to the bank.
Teams will pay as Pool did with VVD and Alison. I don't think that will be our remit though.
Alienating AWB and Zaha is unlikely when they have signed long contracts, as they can't kick up a fuss in the reserves for four season. Even handing in a transfer request won't do them any favours.
Makes sense.He's actually a converted winger. This article is worth a read: https://www.theguardian.com/footbal...-crystal-palace-interview-best-tackler-europe
Probably City- Utd have a terrible record recently of developing young playershe'll be priced out of our grasp. United or someone else will pony up the big bucks.
Dribbling ability is one thing and end product is another. He's far too good defensively -- the best right back in the league in that aspect of his game IMO -- to be moved up. There's no shortage of tricky wingers who can beat a man but don't chip in massively with goals and assists, whereas there very much is a shortage of right backs who completely dominate their flank.Makes sense.
I'll say it here and now - this lad will end up playing further forward and will be worth silly money in a year or two (as opposed to his club asking for silly money now)
They seem to want more. And it is easy to spend 60m on in some ways a rookie (though not quite). I can’t see anyone paying either 60m or what they want. There is better deals out there.He's worth 60 or so million, we could have him as RB for the next 10 years. Not sure who we could get that would be any better especially when you factor in age and HG status.
Stop it. The impending disappointment is killing meDribbling ability is one thing and end product is another.

Make CP a 50mil offer, put 100,000/week in front of AWB and see how serious they both are about not moving.
He's a fullback, to me this is different than Zaha and if I were in CP's place I would understand it. 50mil to reinvest back in the team could be very impactful for them. He's a fullback, the difference for them between Nathaniel Clyne & AWB isn't as important as the difference between Zaha and whoever else they could get. Zaha carries them, AWB is really good but fullback is very low on the totem pole for a second half table club.
They're a relegation candidate without Zaha, without AWB I don't think much changes with their spot in the table. If they invested the money wisely they could improve.That would give the club something to tell the fans too. "An offer too good to turn down."
Palace would only consider an absolute crazy offer for AWB. Trust me when I say what they want is ridiculous.

Did you say sess was worth £50m last season?
