Izzy Posted 13 June 2017 Share Posted 13 June 2017 FWIW, I've got a lot of time for Steve Parish as chairman of Palace. He always comes across as brutally honest and completely genuine when I've heard him speak... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Are you picturing the agent crying on the phone, blubbering and asking Mr Parish to just give his client a chance? I imagine his tweet is an element of saving face so he's just exaggerating the truth. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

FrankieADZ Posted 14 June 2017 Share Posted 14 June 2017 as much as weve got a difficult start to the season Evertons is worse, first 5 game are Stoke, Man City, Chelsea, Spurs then Man Utd only see them winning the opener tbh Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Corky Posted 14 June 2017 Share Posted 14 June 2017 On the face of it, 8th place and a cup final is a very good season for a club like that. But you have to factor in that they were 17 points behind last season's total, 8th had a ridiculously low total of points and they scored 17 goals at home, failing to score in their last five having averaged two per game in the two seasons before it. Slightly harsh but understandable too. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Suspect they have been waiting to get the man they want in before sacking the bloke. Think Puel was never liked - they were quite negative and as pointed out above didn't score many.

jammie82uk Posted 14 June 2017 Share Posted 14 June 2017 Seems like Steve Walsh is going shopping in Milan for Everton in talks with Ac for Carlos Bacca, M'baye Niang and Gianluca Lapadula also in talks with Inter for Ever Banega, Marcelo Brozovic and Jeison Murillo Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tuchel would be exciting but Shakespeare deserves the job here. Been around for years, part of our biggest successes and last year saved us with a few games to spare. If we complete the Maguire deal this weekend then we've also got a promising start to his full time reign. The last few games last seasons weren't a great watch, but we should get behind him and give him a chance! Also whilst it's great having a team that plays attractive football it's important to have a style that suits the players and team in question. I feel like the genius behind our title was that we played a style that was so different to anyone else and maximised the strengths of all of our players. Southampton have played great stuff and developed amazing players over the last few years (well last season they were less good to watch), but what have they won? In our league it will be impossible to match the top teams in terms of style as they will always be able to attract better players. I think there is a logic to playing a different way that does not require as many expensive players, but that is still effective. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Finnegan Posted 15 June 2017 Share Posted 15 June 2017 We've been linked with Murillo, half the Prem probably is. The Lapadula link will just be because Walsh looked at him here, Niang is terrible, it's just his agent putting it out. Bacca and Broz? Maybe but they're nothing exceptional. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
