Diffco Posted 22 August 2023 Share Posted 22 August 2023 Don't have to sell at all. Ship Castagne, Soumare and maybe Daka. Nacho will be useful this season regardless if he starts or not. Deft finish in the cup win. Worth keeping this season 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rest of the time he's been a bit meh. All our strikers are gash but Vards gets a pass. If anyone wants to give us anything for Nacho or Daka, get them gone. A good spell lasting a couple of seasons? Was a key reason we won the FA Cup? Stepped up when Vards got injured and lost form? He's not a saviour by any means, but he really gets shafted by our managers and fans in general. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Popular Post Ric Flair Posted 22 August 2023 Popular Post Share Posted 22 August 2023 Offer a new contract with a £15m release clause if we don't go up. Same wages as currently on but bonus if we go up and wage increase if we do. If he says no, sell him. 10 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sharpe's Fox Posted 22 August 2023 Share Posted 22 August 2023 Sell to anyone putting in an acceptable offer. Would infinitely prefer a new centre forward to Ihaenacho. Back the manager to bring in players whom he wants. If fan favorites have to leave to facilitate that then thats fine by me. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I don’t think you can say his good spell lasted a couple of seasons tbf. He had one very good 6 month spell. Then 2 years since where he’s been an average prem striker at best. And before he had that good 6 month spell, he had a 2 year spell where he was dire. He can be excellent, but he’s had just as many bad games as he has good, and he’s had far more than both of being average. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Or, he has 2 other choices. 1. Stay on the deal he is now and enjoy a juicy singing on fee and great wages at a club of his choice next season. 2. Join a PL club on decent wages on an x year deal. I strongly doubt a club like Palace are getting relegated this season, so those wages will be locked in for at least 2 years. In his shoes, the only option I don’t take is a reduce wage at Leicester that only increases IF we get promoted. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Of course I don’t, but he’s ran his contract down for a reason hasn’t he. Plus he hasn’t exactly been treated well here - Wouldn’t blame him for wanting out. Be shocked if he signed an extension.

sm1 Posted 22 August 2023 Share Posted 22 August 2023 Have there been any bids for him? Seems to be persona non grata, pretty much every transfer window, even though he's never been 1st choice here until now. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I certainly saw value and positive contribution in Nacho's play in the games so far.

splinterdream Posted 22 August 2023 Share Posted 22 August 2023 11 minutes ago, STUHILL said: Piroe just signed new 2 year deal if reports are true. That is the other big issue here. Yes, we could lose Nacho for free in 12 months, but we still need to replace him (and Daka) now. Who is out there? What cost? Will they sign? Does Enzo want to lose Nacho and replace him with the likely limited options out there? 10 days of the window left! Oh, didn't know that, shame if that's the case, not sure why piroe would sign for 2 Yr extension as better clubs were showing interest and he could walk on a free next season, unless he doesn't back himself or sees a future with Swansea 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It’s so difficult to tell as we are only a few games in. I also think a huge amount will boil down to his attitude at Seagrave as well and none of us really know about that. I suppose I feel he was useful, just not indispensable. Edited 22 August 2023 by Chelmofox 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Legend_in_blue Posted 22 August 2023 Share Posted 22 August 2023 If he goes we will need 2 strikers assuming Daka is off. Why any player would choose Palace over us though is bizarre as it is a step down ultimately despite the league status. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Nolucklcfc Posted 22 August 2023 Share Posted 22 August 2023 If he’s supported by enzo and plays every week, he could quite comfortably score 20+ and help take us back to the prem. in which case, he probably signs a new deal anyway. Absolutely have to keep him, unless he is desperate to go. I always feel with nacho, that he needs a manager that will just let his donkey moments go and give him that security as our number 1 striker. It feels with him that as soon as he has a bag couple of games he’s been straight out. Needs that guarantee of game time and being the main man, and I’ll think he’ll stay.
