We had itk yesterday that said a premier league club are in for eze and it's not spurs. Would make sense wouldn't it
Was wondering especially if the Paqueta deal actually fell apart yesterday or so and the press are only just catching up.

Love Eze but am coming round to realising that if we do get another chance it'd be next summer

From here I'd go Gift and Tosin by the deadline- enough depth for top 8 and a decent foundation for Ange's second season

If Orban is our only attacking reinforcement I’m going to be incredibly underwhelmed and also concerned. No slight on him as he looks very promising but he’s not yet at the level where we can, or should, be expecting much impact from him. He will need time and patience imo.

From a HG perspective Tosin makes a lot of sense even if technically there are probably better out there but for some reason he doesn’t want to come supposedly. Maybe he wants to go somewhere he’s a first team player. Not sure. Would probably be a savvy move tho if he changes his mind.

How did he look tonight? Couldn’t face watching it
He ran himself ragged tonight and was on the end of some hard tackles. He's basically the only threat in that team besides a fat Jordan Ayew and teams know that until Olise gets fit. He didn't look great but Palace look terrible in all facets. Wouldn't shock me if they were in a relegation battle all year.

I thought he was decent but tried to do it all himself. Hodgson said before the game that he needs to realise he can’t win games by himself and he was right

Am I only one who thinks he’s overrated..?
Over rated on here. There are some people here convincing themselves that not paying 70m for him is ‘Levy penny pinching and not showing ambition’.

He’s a good player, but not worth what they would ask for him, and not in a position we need to strengthen

Attacker and CB first please

I think over rated is a bit of a meaningless term. Who is over rating him? Fans? We're never consistent.

He doesn't regularly get in the England squad or get calls from fans to do so.

I can't say I watch Palace that much so it's hard for me to judge. From what I've seen and read, he's decent but likely not much more than that.

Yep he’s class but we don’t actually need him at all right now.

CB, RW, ST please and a CM if too many of them leave.

He was pretty good tonight but desperately needs support. He's a decent player but not 70m worth.

Sort of player we should have got from QPR but can't justify now.

He's not one for now because we have better players and he's not one for the future I really thought he was 22/23 not 25

He is a good player that will only get better. Would be great in the sarr position for us, uses the ball really and is press resistant. Just not for the money required. He seems younger as he had that Achilles injury and missed a year of football.

Rather we stick with Sarr and give him plenty of minutes

If Eze goes city will he get game time or be the next Kalvin Phillips.

I don't disagree, especially for the quoted money. File it in the good players that don't fit our budget for £ for performance.
