Sell:
Mutch (<1mm)
Lee (2-4mm)
PVA (7-12mm)
Kaikai (2-4mm)

I just can't see Kaikai making it into the first team. He's been given a few chances over the years and a few loan spells, with very poor to mixed results.

Bring In:
No one from the premier league - only internationals or a lower league player.

Quite simply everyone in the PL is way too expensive in the January window (and in summer). You can get much better players from overseas for a fraction of the cost. There are also a few lower league players worth the cost. This is the only way we can improve the team without spending gobs of money on mediocre players (PVA, Schlupp, etc.).

Got a feeling Tompkins will go for good money. We’ll brIng in a promising cb and we’ll use excess along with kitty to fund two attack minded players and a gk

Pva may go but with Souare we are still not sure if he’s the same level as before so if pva goes Roy must know of a cheaper lb with some quality to take his spot

Pretty sure Schlupp has already taken his spot, if Souare is declared fit I’d be happy with those 2. Frees up a squad space and gets us a fair bit of money.

Would be a real shame. He’s a decent player and too professional. Seems to have really bought into the Palace cause as well.

No idea why we'd be forced to sell Townsend for just £15m? He's a vital part of our play and can't see us selling him unless we're offered close to double that.

If anyone offered £30m plus I think we'd have to think about it. Yes he's good on his day and yes he's getting better. But £30m could go a long way to revamping our foward line if the right players where identified.

Tomkins? I doubt we'd sell him, I also doubt we'd get a £20m offer for him. But even in today's market £20m is good money for a CB.

We'd still have a injury prone Sakho and Dann so would need to buy good to replace. Wonder how good the lad in the development squad is also.

Maybe Tomkins for £20m would have legs if an offer that high came in.

Zaha is 6 months in to a 5 year deal. He's the sole reason we're still up and therefor bags the club £100m plus a season. He won't be sold this window or in the summer. Potentially the following summer when he'd be on 3 years to run. But it's pipe dreams of any club to think they can buy one of the best players outside the top six for £50m when he has such a long contract. Won't be sold.

So Tomkins and Benteke if sky high prices come in and PVA for £10m to city.

£60m war chest could be spent fairly well at replacing those three IMO.


How on earth is the worst shooter in the prem worth 30m?

Don't understand why we would to or need to sell any of these players. Even if we received a good offer, it would hard to find better replacements in this window. We should be looking to strengthen not weaken the squad.

Why not? All of them could do a job in the Championship. They wouldn't fetch a king's ransom but they wouldn't be taking up a squad place here either.

Why would we sell Tomkins? Possibly the best centre back at the club.

Hopefully Benteke is regaining confidence after the performance vs Leicester, despite missing a few chances. Lunacy to sell our only fit striker, whatever your opinion of him.

Townsend is one that I would look to let go. Works hard enough and can deliver a decent ball into the box but is replaceable as he doesn't offer anything amazing. If someone comes in with a silly offer for him, we should take it.

I imagine Souare will go on loan to aid his recovery, which means selling PvA is off the cards. If Souare does stay, we might as well get rid of PvA though, it's the only position we have fully sufficient cover in, bar maybe centre mid.

Wages. They're all on a good whack & won't get the same dropping down to the Championship.

No idea, which is why we should consider taking it if offered.

Yes Tom why would we ? I said in the Everon target thread that 20 million would be too cheap in today's market , I was serious and seeing 75 million for Van Dijk and Johnny Evens touted at 30 million plus has not made me change my mind.
Decent centre halves are hard to come by , we would struggle to replace him for 20 million.
