3 years younger, PL proven and neither of his knees have blown up yet.
PL proven? He's 20 and had one season at Palace.

More pertinently, we haven't been linked with him have we? Don't see the point discussing him personally. We've been strongly linked with Maddison, repeatedly linked with Zaniolo and tentatively linked with Paqueta. They're the 3 we're actually looking at right now, like it or not.

This place is mental, everyone not wanting Zaniolo but wanting Olise instead….
Olise is talented but nowhere near the same level.
Olise is a way better prospect. Zaniolo is powerful but has little 1v1 ability. On the other hand Olise has absolutely tons of it. He has a huge ceiling and woild be a much better back up to Kulusevski than Lucas or Zaniolo.

Cheaper? At 35m? For a 20 year old who's not exactly lighting up the league let's be honest, he's good but not that good
You say say this but (assuming the RC stuff at 35m isn’t true) I can bet you now Olise will be valued at 60/70m next summer and we will have no chance of signing him.

Yea 25 games in the Premier League means you have proven yourself? Crazy talk.
Not proven but is settled in the country and has looked very good to me this season and has continually got better so the style of the league doesn't appear to be an issue unlike a lot of other players.

When we're credibly linked and he has a thread, perhaps, who knows? SC is a ficklefest.

Until then it's just another round of the great SC cockjoust. The tournament that never has a result :D

well yeah, that's pretty much what I was hinting at

mob mentality is rife at SC, with all due respect to my learned colleagues

Strong disagree. It’s a lose-lose.

So did we get it confirmed that Zaniolo was the Lorem Ipsum cryptic? Or is that one still active?
