Reading through the last few pages:
- Olise staying at Palace, can’t be mad at it, would have been a bargain to be honest considering price hikes. Grade 3 hammy tear though.
- RJ injury, horrific. Wouldn’t ever consider letting him go but my God he needs to stop whatever fitness regime he’s doing. I half think that Poch’s preseason was too much for the players who were so undeniably unfit during the season, not blaming Poch at all, just the length of which our players remained in poor shape.
- Johnson from Forest, just yikes, please no, unless I’ve read it wrong and they are paying us £50m to take him. He is another Dan James, just less speed.
- Noni and Sterling I feel are sufficient right now considering what we have on loan and the other areas we need to focus on.
- Gutted about Hall, I sure hope there is a hefty sell on or buyback clause, I understand he grew up supporting Newcastle but we had him on a ridiculous contract, to let a prospect go for £28m? Short-term’ism thinking in my book.
