Mhsc 1,139 Posted August 28, 2023 Share Posted August 28, 2023 The thing that totally throws me is Poch said it’s pointless unless they’re a PL player, as it will take time to adapt if they’re not and by then Nkunku is back. So who the fuck could be a surprising signing that knows the league? Leroy Sane? Hazard? Eze? Fuck knows. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mhsc 1,139 Posted August 28, 2023 Share Posted August 28, 2023 Maybe it really could be Eze? He’s got PL experience, and plays on the left or through the middle. He’s good at long shots where we are generally not great, and in general just the sort of profile you could totally imagine slotting in immediately. He’s also a little older (close to his prime) which Poch has been asking for. mkh 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
OneMoSalah 9,089 Posted August 28, 2023 Share Posted August 28, 2023 Eze could be shout. He is still youngish (25) but also experienced enough although Palace is one thing, Chelsea is another. Whether or not he can do what he did for Palace last year for us is the question but his age, experience in terms of games played and profile is what we should be looking for.

Not necessarily someone who is or has actually been in the PL. Probably doesn’t want another situation where it takes a player months to get up to speed with the pace and physicality of this league.

Probably doesn’t want another situation where it takes a player months to get up to speed with the pace and physicality of this league. “It’s easy to say we need another offensive player but I think we have offensive players that need to recover. “Now, if you bring a player who is maybe not fit or needs to adapt to the Premier League, maybe you are going to spend the same time that you need to wait for Broja or for Nkunku or for Carney, and then you are going to create a mess in the squad.” So he wants someone that will immediately slot into the lineup without needing time to get fit or adapt to the league at all. That probably means a PL or ex-PL player or someone that looks tailor made for the league. That said, Poch asked for experience in midfield and got handed a 19 year old and a 21 year old for huge money. So maybe it is better not to read too much into it and someone like Barcola is just as likely as anyone else. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

lluubbeenn 188 Posted August 28, 2023 Share Posted August 28, 2023 There has been some noise around Sancho. Only random accounts report it, but exchanging Cucu for Sancho on loans may be a decent stopgap. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mhsc 1,139 Posted August 28, 2023 Share Posted August 28, 2023 (edited) I suppose there's also Jadon Sancho who has the Joe Shields link... I'm not immediately keen, but not very familiar with how he has flopped so hard at Utd. Edit: Just now, lluubbeenn said: There has been some noise around Sancho.

Doubt Palace entertain the sale of Eze this late in the window....unless it's a massive offer. Surely if Eze was the target, we wouldn't have gone after Olise with some secret release clause and pissed them off. OneMoSalah 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
