you don’t have a clue about who the manager and DoF are prioritising and neither do I

Just because Palace ensured that one played out in public doesn’t mean the other one didn’t happen. Most of our big deals since the takeover were done behind closed doors then announced at the last minute with most of the reporters in the dark.

just be honest, you know as much as I do about who they’re targeting and when.
-
when Botman and Lascelles return we are clearly better covered at CB than at RW. It isn’t even up for debate.

if the rumours are to be believed we bid for Olisse last summer before going for Guehi

how the fuck do you know what they think given we have signed *checks notes* no one of note for three windows

No one was complaining about schar during the winning run when we weren’t conceding goals. You could say the same about Murphy. But Murphy has always been this sort of player - capable of the occasional decent performance/run of form before going back to putting in stinkers. He’s a lot like Miggy - a squad player at best for a side who are targeting CL. Schar has been imperious since the takeover and his decline is a recent one. Ideally he will be benched when Botman comes back. Botman’s stop-start return from injury and Lascelles’s struggle to recover on schedule has fucked us. A new CB is needed but our failure to upgrade RW predates the takeover. We have Murphy, who should be a rotation option, starting games. It’s the squad’s obvious weak spot

You’re welcome. You needed a refresher after posting about our centre back issues like you’d scored a point

Newsflash: Jacob Murphy still isn’t good enough to start at RW for a team with CL aspirations. He’s been awful the last few games now his Miggy style purple patch has fizzled out and our unfancied young reserve CF is now seemingly our second choice in that position. Barnes did a good impression of the invisible man when he played there against Forest. Schar’s drop over the last few weeks has been alarming. He’s been immense since the takeover but maybe age is catching up with him. This is the problem when the squad isn’t refreshed window after window - it grows out and it grows stale. The whole squad is a reminder of that tbh - we still starting Murphy, Schar and (until recently) Longstaff. Love these lads and I’d love them to sign off with a trophy but they’re Mike Ashley era players.
