We definitely need a team full of Irvines.

What is a day without reading about Kim ... 
Gotta beat the queue innit.... Just leaving my house now with a big ol' packed lunch and a sleeping bag..... Happy to share..... (My sarnies that is.)
See you there!!!
Do you mean doing the "normal" paperwork a transfer involves is not worth a profit of £10m?
PS! I just mentioned it with a pun intended. I included 2 ifs...
What's the true plural collective?
A team of Perisi?
A gaggle of Perisi's?
Yeh he plays for Leicester
Maddison would be an insanely good addition. Everyone is saying we need a creative midfielder, only KDB and TAA have created more chances in the league since Maddison started at Leicester.
He also scores a lot of goals, 18 last season. He's always been the player most similar to Eriksen and he's in his prime.
Also wouldn't mind Depay at that price under 20m. He'd be 5th choice basically, no one in the league has a 5th choice that good.

No.... I listed a number of factors.
What's this supposed to mean? What pun?
You said "If" the clause is true.
You said "maybe" we should; I'm addressing that "maybe".
Piss porn?
Maddison and a top quality CB and I think the window is finished.
Maddison is quality, i just dont see who we can realistically get that is better creatively and add in homegrown and a good age and it would be a superb signing in the one area we lack. The centre back would be the icing on the cake. What a window that would be.
It seems we are very short of good CB options by now and as we brought Lenglet I assume the position to strenght would be Dier's one. Inter is apparently signing Bremer, so who's left for us?
I'd like us his to have a look at Badiashile at Monaco, monster in the air (6'4) and has a power and pace that Davies and Lenglet don't offer.
Pretty solid on the ball too, good progressive passing and pass completion numbers. Carries the ball out of the back well. He's also getting better as he's just turned 21 this spring.
What about Eze or Olise?
Cost less, more versatile too.
Wanted both before they moved to Palace. Not sure Eze has done enough to warrant a big move but really like Olise. Maddison is more the finished article though.
I don't think it's a guarantee that they'd cost much less.
If the Maddison stuff is true, I think it's because Maddison would express a desire to leave and Leicester decide they need to sell because he only has two years on his contract and they are struggling financially.
I could see Palace wanting 35-40m for Olise or Eze, whereas Maddison is likely around 50m or even a little less. I don't think that's a big enough difference in price to not go for the more proven player.
Probably not as much less as one would first assume.
Eze - 3 yrs left.
Olise - 4yrs left.
+ Madison, although now in bloom, still hasn't reached his peak.
Eze had a bad injury and missed a chunk of time - I like both.
Still think less though.
