What. A. Player.
Not being able to get him might come bite us. He seems so intelligent and skillfull. Quite hardworking out of possesion too.
Look forward to when we can afford this type of players in the team.
The Prince HAS been very generous in supporting CW up until now - we COULD have afforded Eze - he simply didn't fit into how we play the game now.

I don't really know tbh. I assume palace gives better wages, and we can't break the structure unless we want to do a Bournemouth.You mean afford as in cost or in terms of player type?
The prince still have to deal carefully, can't splash too much, or we will struggle if the worst comes to pass. I feel like Eze would fit as a lcm.Can you ask CW when we are going to go back to playing with a no:10?
Until that time we don't need an Eze or Cantwell.

I think we will look to transition back towards the 10 role as we establish ourselves and push on in the leagueCan you ask CW when we are going to go back to playing with a no:10?

It doesn’t matter what a lot of people on here think. It has no bearing whatsoever on our transfer policy.A lot of people on here didnt want, doesnt run around enough to fit our ‘mould’. He will be in the mix for england soon. Would of been insane if we signed him.

'Flatters to deceive' is what I always think when I see Eze - he looks good but doesn't seem to positively affect things.
Are you saying you think the mentality that players should work hard is old fashioned? I’d say it’s the opposite. When I started watching plenty of teams had a fat bastard who didn’t run about much but could spray passes around and unlock defences. Jan Molby was the archetype. He wouldn’t get a look in at Liverpool these days.it doesnt, but i think in most instances the mentality is a bit old fashioned. We should be looking more towards these creative types to progress. I thinkwe have bought players this window whoall possess a bit of magic. So all steps in the right direction.

Personally, I’m very much in favour of investing in good young prospects but we can’t sign all of them. So there’s always going to be one or two that we can say ‘we should’ve signed him’.

True but if a player has technical ability but doesn’t work hard, it’s right that we ignore him because we aren’t good enough to carry passengers.its more overlooking technical ability in favour of someone who puts a shift in. The top teams have more technically gifted players than the bottom teams. We need to ensure we have a good balance.
We’ll still be some way off the sort of wages teams like palace are paying. Id imagine their wage bill is double or even treble. The transfer fee is just half the battle when competing with other premier league clubs for the same player.
He probably would have wanted to stay in London anyway

I was a bit disappointed we didn't make a punt for him last season when his value was much lower (unless we asked and were rebuffed) - although I'll admit I've not seen him play that often. This year, as others on the thread have said we could have gone for him if Wilder had wanted to, but he clearly decided our money was better spent elsewhere and I've no problem with that.
What position would you say McGoldrick plays?

I mean. Phillips was in the England squad after playing 0 premier League games.Yes he'll be in England mix he's played 3 games in PL fucking stupid like that lad at Brighton, 3 games and an England player fucking stupid.
We should have a plan B because we have been so predictable it is frightening.
