I’m not sure Santa’s elves have the ability to knock up a Marc Guehi, no matter how good Slot and Hughes have been this year.

He would have to do another medical.

Disappointed for Liverpool and the player but these things happen, both did all they could and are not at fault but it requires all parties to do their part and Palace couldn’t complete the deals they needed.
Wonder if Dom is also surprisingly effective at centre back?

I have zero confidence in Palace lining up a defensive replacement in the winter window if they weren’t able/willing all summer. Any decent defender with World Cup ambitions is unlikely to want to move in that window.
Yeah, mince pies can play havoc with your sprint speeds.

It would be hilarious if his form for Palace collapses after this…

The reason you have pre agreement is that for a player you don’t want the nightmare scenario of getting a long term injury just as your contract is about to expire.
Say a playeri has an informal agreement to come to a club on a free signing. On the last day of the season he does his ACL. The club would then (depending on the club) pull out, leave the player without a deal, and required to do their own rehab and recovery. Some players want the security of knowing they are under contract.

35 own goals when we play them should make the point

There is loads to unpick with this, but the biggest issue is that it’s a really, really odd move from Parish.

Apparently Glasner told him he can’t guarantee him minutes, then the deal collapsed.
That’s a bit weird

Anything to avoid having to appoint Hodgson yet again…

Perhaps not but he becomes available to sign a pre contract anyway so their inability to sign someone is irrelevant
