Ok , so we want sakho , but Liverpool are asking too much . Presumably the management are trying to eyeball Liverpool into a lower price five minutes before the window closes ..

Tony doesn't like us after he lost his court case and has to pay money back .

Is this mischief on his behalf , payback , saying he wants Sakho so it drives his price up ... ?

Surely not ???

I miss Tony.

2 wins out of 2. Will not be anywhere near a relegation battle this season. 40 points by January.

That is his payback. Whilst we fanny about trying to play like Barcelona only to pay off yet another manager and bring in a 'Dinosaur' like Pulis to get us playing the best football we'll see all season.

Then in Summer we'll all reset, think we're a better team than we are, get ideas above our station and try and get a Manager in who like to play 1-4-5 with a budget of £23.60.

Personally, the best footie I have seen Palace play was under Pulis. He really is an excellent PL manager and far more flexible than people think. BUT he ditched Palace two days before the start if the season and tried to con his bonus out of Parish. The guy is also a premier prat, and he can go take a running jump

Poor old Tony has a £5.8m bloody nose from trying to be too clever with Palace. He'd be well-advised to concentrate on football matters or else next time someone sews him a new arsehole he'll have to go to work in China to pay that debt off
