Pep understudy Manager, World Class facilities, likely to win a lot of games, and a very impressive injury record... Ok not that last bit!

Thats one of the main reasons why we did ,what we did , in 2015/16. We went from pretty average to brilliant in a very short space of time. They didn't have enough windows to pick that side apart 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Brizzle Fox Posted 11 August 2023 Share Posted 11 August 2023 Speaking to a Charlton season ticket holder at work. Said this chap is much too good for Div 1 and is more than ready for step up to top end Champs. Interestingly described him as more of an inside forward (one for the kids) as he never attacks down the flanks. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cpfc13 Posted 11 August 2023 Share Posted 11 August 2023 (edited) He's travelled with the the squad to Sheffield so nothing close. Hull pushing hard but still expect him to end up here. Edited 11 August 2023 by Cpfc13 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Should he end up elsewhere without a replacement coming in, then it will be proof we are not good and closing out deals. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They already said that any sale of Olise will not have an impact on RakSak when the rumours first surfaced. If they don't deem RS good enough yet to be on the bench to replace Olise during games then they obviously don't think he's in a position to be starting for them in his place instead. They'll buy.

If Rak-Sakyi has no value being on their bench, there must be a reason why we have failed to get this over the line.

JimJams Posted 11 August 2023 Share Posted 11 August 2023 Well assuming that if Olise stayed meant Rak going on loan that must mean there's somebody in the squad currently that would be used as cover for Olise. So if he's sold, whoever that player is/was will still be there so you'd imagine that Palace will spend the Olise money on a replacement where they'd be competing with the mystery player that is already ahead of RS. IT ALL POINTS TO A DEAL REGARDLESS!!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rumours that everything had been agreed on Twitter and @Sambiasso so why are we still waiting for this to be done? Deal agreed in principle. If you look at Doyle, Mavididi and Casadei deals all 3 were expected to be done in the same week but 4 weeks down the line there's only 2 in officially. Expected to be done before the window closes, it's worth noting that he'd be a rotation player and unlikely to be a starter week in week out. 7 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I see Rak-Sakyi as a better player, but I suspect we need to have a backup for the RW as well as one for the LW, Gouveia. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I wouldn't be enormously surprised if we went until January with Mavididi/WMM and Rak-Sakyi/McAteer as our main wide options, with Albrighton and Praet stepping in occasionally if they're still around. Ideally I'd definitely want another in but not holding my breath. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I suspect they'll be looking at two different types of players for different situations, in the same way we will have a defensive #8 (Ndidi) and an attacking #8 (Praet/casadei).

Hopefully if they’re set on signing someone to replace Riyad and that means Palmer having another year elsewhere they’ll trust Enzo as the man. I’d read that Borrussia Monchengladbach were heavily linked also so maybe they see him as better than Championship level. Be a fantastic coup if we can pull it off, I’d be gobsmacked though!
