Tete was all exciting and the best things slice bread how did that work out. I think it's best to judge siging when they have actually played.

Surely still the same issue with Tax on his wages?

I get it, it's not sexy. I think as a squad option it's OK.

I can see us spending another 30m, if that's on 5 years contracts it add 6m per annum to amortisation. Which would leave it pretty healthy.

Well it 5m for a start, and nearly 10 years later.

Huth was 30, end up cost us 3m, Id' say is a comparable transfer. Stoke fans loved him and spoke highly, Palace fans speak them same about Ayew. This summer we have brought in 2 x 23, 19, 18, 20 year olds and a 31 and 33. People are acting like we have signed up dads army

Which is also a fair point.

With our current business included our amortisation is around what it was at the the start of the Championship season, due to what drop off at the end last season. So we aren't doing to bad on the transfer side, not sure about wages

The melt down is hilarious. NP revered by all on here, know that experience combined with youth was key to success, he brought in plenty of experienced.

You could follow Tete to Panathinaiko I'm looking found to the next BSLB so don't go just yet!

Still wrong Palace PL apps 195, 22 goals

Have you decided some games don't count? PL website has 275 and 37 goals.....

10 weeks ago we didn't have a manager.

I still think this is a reserve back burn option.

Not a chance.

He wasn't the only issue. We conceded 5 to Fulham with Iversen in goal. in 12 games with Iversen in goal we conceded 22 goals, at average of 1.83 goals a game. The issue was deeper then just Ward.

As Leicester fans we should understand the quote of the “The whole is greater than the sum of the parts” more then anyone after 15/16. Sometimes for every Vardy you need a Okazaki, for every Mahrez you need a Albrighton.

We scored 2 at Spur and Brighton and 3 at Fulham. The issue was BR couldn't create a cohesive defence structure, we were woeful on the transition and too open. I think we can be defensive sound and also be on the front foot, we have the resource to play really well on the break.

Seems that way, bit of a gamble on their behalf.

Think he is over priced.

He look bigger, must be that big mop of blond hair.

The stats don't really back that up Spurs xG was 1.18 and ours was 1.05. With 2 big chances missed by each side. The fact that Spurs only achieved an xG of 1.18 from 15 shot, show they actually didn't create many clear cut chances.

No one every scouts or buys a bad player, when they never actually have to buy one.

It about balance. Last time in the PL we ship, 6 away at Spurs 5 at Fulham and Brighton. We need to be horrible to play against.

Same Fulham who battered us 5-3 we were in the PL in 22/23, we had a front 3 of Vardy, Barnes and Maddison that day, do you think the current front 3 are better? In 22/23 we won more games then Forest, and the same as Everton, we went down because we were a soft touch and lost to many games. The other stayed up on the back of picking up draws. Being tough to beat isn't a bad thing.
