I actually quite like the McNeil idea. Gotta have some players who don’t need time / adjustments. You need some who just know the league and know their role.

Sources suggest Mateta has completed his medical but AC Milan want the forward to complete some additional tests before proceeding with the transfer

I have no problem admitting I will head back to the other place when we go from Strand Larson to Callum Wilson throughout the day.

Definitely deserved a point. Frustrating but I would have taken a point before the game all things considered

Yes it can take time but we don’t have much. Pino is a problem.

FUCKING SHOOT

Quite why the ‘Head of Loan Development’ is always at our games and not watching the games our loan players are playing in, I’ll never know. But hey ho

Every fucking time a ball goes in our box. Do they do anything in training to address this? It’s negligent

Only want players here you went to be here. Back those who are here - it’s still a good squad. UP THE PALACE ❤️💙

Up the Newport - big game today

Well done Palace getting Guessand in before someone else goes out.

Has he been in the right frame of mind all season?

I’m more worried about the impact on the dressing room no JP will have than his actual on the field presence right now. We aren’t packed full of leaders at the moment

I feel quite odd about it all. On the assumption JP goes and JSL comes in, we will have broken our transfer window twice in one window. Yet with Johnson and JSL, I can’t help but feel underwhelmed.

Jørgen Strand Larsen started his professional career at Fredrikstad’s rivals Sarpsborg 08. In case you were interested in that sort of thing

I’ve probably missed multiple examples, but have we signed a player for over £20m that’s worked out?

Staggered some are worried / angry about the prospect of losing Mateta. Get Juve on the phone

Trains are fucked, happy Monday

Now seems a bad time to point out we have a new hat in the range…

Palace should never sign someone for over £19m.

It’s too early to judge bla bla but I look at Johnson and do not see anything near a £30m player.

Gifted a goal and missed a sitter. 😖

They’ve given me the wrong pie. I’ll take it for a point or more

SOUTH LONDON’S RED N BLUE ARMY 👏👏👏👏

Sheffield Wednesday fans are consoling themselves after losing a 36 year old Barry Bannan, while their team are rock bottom have been deducted 18 points. Puts things into perspective a bit

It’s not a sea of Palace positivity on here, is it? That will change when we win tomorrow of course.

I’m pretty calm about Palace. I felt we probably should have sold Geuhi in the summer, and definitely this window. I also feel Mateta has peaked and if the money is up front we should take that. I’ll go bananas if we don’t replace players.

I’d rip your arm off for Iraola but, I’d be very surprised if there wasn’t a bigger club than us interested. It would of course be nice if he chose to extend his time at Bournemouth.

I’m sure I’m alone in this and will be proven wrong, but the fact there has been nothing from the club at all on ‘the situation’ makes me feel there’s been some more bumps in the road.

Dentist just offered me ‘2.30’ Laughed down the phone. I assumed reception staff deliberately blocked that time out

All the best, Marc 💔💙

Obviously the last few days regarding Palace have been shit, real fucking shit. But, as another player leaves and we say ‘how do you replace a player like that’ it goes to show that we can get it right and we can recruit good people, as well as good players. Wilf, MO, Ebs, now Marc.

Got a bit emotional watching that vid of Marc, what a guy and what a player he’s been for us. Will unfollow him tomorrow.

The finishing in this final has been absolutely horrendous. I can’t even see them scoring in the inevitable penalty shootout

Today I learned that blue cheese with honey on top is great. I’m sure that’s very common knowledge but it was a first for me. I will now forever drizzle honey on my blue cheese

I would 100% take Thomas Frank

What time is it?

Five days without water then Palace implode. My greatest challenge yet, and I was in Lublin where it was £2 a pint.

He gets a bit of a doer upper, does a great job, you think ‘how’s he done all that on that budget so quickly?’ Then he petrol bombs the gaff himself

Extraordinary post-match interview with Glasner on BBC website. "My players are fantastic but we have been abandoned by the board who sold our captain one day before a match." No surviving that - see ya Ollie

Any player that refuses to play can get fucked.

‘Bought him £18m, best young centre half in the country, future England captain. Sold him for £20m. Minus the sell on fee that is a total profit of… a loss’

To think 6 hours ago people were pissed off we’d recalled Danny Imray from a loan 😂😂

Went for a swim and saun, came out to Palace on fire 😂

So according to Glasner he told Parish before we went into the busiest and most important month of our season? All the while expecting new signings. Come on…

Unpopular opinion but if the money was up front I’d take that for Mateta. That’s on the assumption we have his replacement lined up.
