    Team v Watford

    Plus Watford have an inclination to get rough with a side's more skillful players. Witness Epoue's assault on Zaha last Sunday.

    Match Ratings Ratings vs Manchester UTD

    From Sky's Geoff Peters to Poch: " For a club with no new ground, no new players, you're doing quite well". Mmm, more like a club with 3 grounds.

    New Stadium Details And Discussions

    You can get away with an awful lot in the first season. There's the novelty value, the promise of the new and wanting to be one of the first there. A massive amount of goodwill has been exterminated. The club has looked like a right chancer, particularly the massive price increases, evoking...

    Kevin de Bruyne suffers a potential long term knee injury(2-4 months) in training. How does Levy do it? First game at NWHL v City now definitely on.

    Player Watch: Serge Aurier

    Be thankful it wasn't Aurier. Based on the pitch, he'd have run you down, reversed over you, got out to give you resuscitation and instead committed a foul throw. Then Sissoko would have followed along and kicked you in the head, when he'd meant to support it.

    Levy plans to stay long term but must consider takeover bids

    Money. Who doesn't sell to the highest bidder? At this level the difference is massive amounts of money. Plus lunatics don't always come armed with a giant sign stuck on them saying: "I'm a lunatic!". Thus you have the escape clause: "Blimey, New Owner being a lunatic is a massive surprise...

    Player watch: Toby Alderweireld

    We certainly need Toby on the right whenever Aurier plays there.

    The Liverpool Game. WHY !!

    Why do Sky want to transmit it at 12.30 on Saturday? Surely such a prime fixture would generate the highest ratings at 4pm Sunday? The answer probably lies in the teams playing at 4pm the following day: Everton v Wham. Neither in CL.

    Wilfried Zaha

    What do you think Schalke were paying him? How can they be possibly be paying him nearly 50% more than Zaha, their prized player? Bare in mind Meyer isn't a game winner, neither a goal scorer nor a creator. He's a work horse. Peter Ridsdale hasn't taken over at Palace!

    Wilfried Zaha

    Nonsense. Reported as £80k a week, due to a free. HTF could Palace pay any player £170k a week?

    Wilfried Zaha

    I can help you with that: "At Palace, initial ambitions have been tempered by financial realities as the owners eye both the £100m redevelopment of Selhurst Park’s main stand and a wage bill which has become prohibitive over recent seasons. It had risen 39% to £112m for 2016-17, the ninth...

    Wilfried Zaha

    No, that's Liverpool's price. Palace don't have that sort of money to waste.

    Anthony Martial

    Yeah, what clubs were those players sold to again? Were they abroad? Unlike the one Lukaku joined, so he wasn't embarrassed by paying £75m to buy him.

    The Mauricio Pochettino thread

    Probably because of the sky high fees they're asking, 3 or 4 times what they paid for players who've stood still or gone backwards there.

    Wilfried Zaha

    Have the Palace fans stopped laughing yet? :LOL: Players swaps involve valuing the players as they're assets to the clubs. You can't cheat United that easily. Agents will also want their cut of the deal. The logistics would also be mind boggling.

    Wilfried Zaha

    They didn't want him to stay. Why do you think the fee was £3m?

    Players do mention this often, don't they? About being loved, supported, made to feel a part of a club, being wanted. It's all bollox, of course. 1 Wages 2 Starting games regularly 3 Playing in my best position 99 All that other shit Here are my trophies after 15 years in top level football...
