Marc Guehi (CB) Crystal Palace

Bradley cant be relied on at all far too injury prone.

If Bradley is injury prone why would be hoping to rely on Gomez, they aren’t going rotate them.

Anyhow it seems we are going for a flat fee deal.

Since Bradley made his debut he has missed more games through injury than Joe 47 to 33.

Knowing how much we get when we sell players surely 10% of sell on is worth more

Depends if it’s 10% of the profit (which these usually are) or 10% of the total. If the former, it would have to be a sale of over £80m to be worth more than the £5m to them.

I can see this getting done to be honest. Feels to me Parish probably asked us to come back after the Europa ties.

And some thought Hughes was sat around playing Solitaire.

Their counter offer looks decent assuming if we move guehi on when he reaches VVD’s age.

The slight difference being this is the way it has been for Gomez for some years as a full grown man; whereas there is a sense that at least some of Bradley’s issues are to do with growth, and there is some hope that his record will improve.

Obviously our medical department will know what’s what, but it seems plausible to me.

We also have players leave for nothing.

According to the BBC sports App we have tabled a formal £35M bid for Mark Guehi today and LFC do not do that unless they were encouraged by Parish.

The thing about this deal that irritates me is why we didn’t get it wrapped up before the start of the season. We’re going to save FA here by waiting till deadline day and we’ve lost that time integrating the player while palace have got to play him to win the CS and European qualification. If we’ve not got a discount after all that we haven’t really done very well at all here.

Perhaps Parish wouldn’t sell him then.

Imo there seems to be an internal battle between Glasner and Parrish, and Guehi was really needed for them to qualify, and for Palace also was a lot of money at stake. I think, if the Conference League mess hadn’t happened and Palace had definitely landed in the Europa League, we probably would have signed him much sooner.
