He’s definitely an interesting one. Age makes him appeal more than Vlah for me too.
Still think most sensible thing to do would be getting a shit hot wing forward and playing Richy or Son up top.
You can find the best one for either wing. Maybe even that Diaby and you are adding to your squad. Then if you still need a #9 next call station no you can go looking
Again we should be all over it. Probably better than most of our midfielders in the ball carrying role. £25M surely worth a punt? We have donkeys in the squad with far less talent that should be gone. May be give them Rodon plus cash? At least he’ll be closer to wales
He's played on the left plenty of times it looks like and hes probably as suited to a high line as Vertonghen was.
He's better than Tosin by a considerable amount. However, for back up he'd cost more and doesn't have the HG link.
Looks to be great technically. But a downgrade on Tapsoba. Probably on par with van de Ven without the potential upside.
Exactly I’m sure we interested in him when at Fulham but patarici or whoever at the time fudnt fancy him for £25M. Great left foot I think. Now double the price but is 27. Again where is the joined up thinking! Surely if you spend that amount you go fir the younger player Mark G at palace s d is Hg. Alternatively get tabsoba and vdv who are both younger. Really amazes me we have been after then for weeks and now we are after Anderson.
2/3 of the things listed were sportswashing tho.
If we sell 5 defenders... Rodon, Tanganga, Dier, Davies and Sanchez... We would probably need at least 3...Am interested to see what combinations people would choose out of the ones we have been linked with... So:
Bremer 42m
Tapsoba 34m
Van der Ven 28m
Laporte 26m
Nelsson 23m
Ibanez 23m
Cambiasso 21m.
Do you go youth and speed, or experience and dependency.... A lot of the younger ones have loads of potential.... Difficult but what 3 would we choose........ If it came to it
Bremer 42m
Tapsoba 34m
Van der Ven 28m
Laporte 26m
Nelsson 23m
Ibanez 23m
Cambiasso 21m.

Pragmatism over fees has nothing to do with it in their case.
60m Havertz
55m Mount
+ a bunch of Saudi luck (or dodgyness)
It also assumes we are turning down bids on players when in truth there appears to have been little interest so far.
Correct
The centre back search is turning into a mess now......looks like weve backed away from VdV and Tapsoba and are now being linked with other random defenders we've been linked with in the past.
If this is what they are doing it’s because they don’t want to pay for their top or even second target AGAIN.
Watched palace several times, never saw this guy dribble or carry the ball forward, didn’t really see line breaking passes, I did see longer pings like Toby and guess decent. He does head everything as well.
Solid defender but doesn’t seem like he’s similar or data led like Tapsoba or VDV. But could be wrong
We aint buying him to play in Ange's high line. No chance. That journo hasnt got a transfer story right on us ever as far as I can remember. People need to stop believing everything they read.
Geezer it's a joke.....a lot of people found it funny!
ALL the classic hallmarks of another Levy dithering where we end up shopping in Lidl on the last week of the window.
He is right footed, again it makes no sense to spend that much on a rcb when Ange desperately needs a left footed cb
Just soend the money on the original targets!
I think Van De Ven is the one we should be pushing for the most. He’s 22,just about to break into the Dutch team,lightening quick,left footed,can play left back and won’t be going to the African Nations in January. We need to sign a left footed centre back for the balance of the side and not Lenglet as first choice. Tapsoba looks the part and would love to get him too and between those two and Romero we’d be stronger than most teams in that position.
Correct. If we got VDV and Tapsoba in I’m pretty sure we’d all be delighted with our transfer window. I also think it gives us a better chance of keeping Kane. Getting bentancur back from injury and with a new style and system then the whole thing would look a million times better than last season and many before that.
I don't think Andersen would be signed to be starter. I still think it's one of Tapsoba and VDV and another and he's under the "another" category.
Don't watch Palace often but he's always looked alot better than Guehi. But again, doesn't have that HG links like Guehi or Tosin have.
All better than Lenglet though.
I would be happy with any of the two. I think Tapsoba is alot further along in the dedelopment and would ease in alot smoother.
But I do like van de Ven. Definitely like a left footer and hee's great technically.
