It is mostly just the skeptic in me but I cannot see how this deal will happen. The guy is a regular starter for france. He could play in any league in top 6 teams. He would improve Liverpool Spurs United Dortmund Inter Napoli Fiorentina to name a few and i reckon would start regularly at all those sides.

Unless he loves fish and chips and a pint of Speckled Hen or has a very questionable relationship with Pards i don't see how this happens. Just seems talk to make other clubs realise he is available.

Hope to be proved wrong but..... ain't happening.

Just a thought.
Just supposing that Yohan actually loves playing football more than he enjoys buying fast cars and getting rat-arsed.

If this is the case, here are 6 reasons why he would seriously consider comming to the Palace.
1. He doesn't need great wads of moolah (let's be honest NO footballer needs great wads of moolah 'cos most of them just fritter it away. He's made enough to live a more-than-comfortable life already.
2. He knows and likes Pards and the way he works.
3. Current Palace players have a great reputation for hard work and giving everything for the team. There's no great-I-am's.
4. It goes without saying that Palace fans are the best there are.
5. Baring injury, he would be virtually guaranteed a starting place in every game.
6. If we can get a couple of other top signings and if luck runs with us he could (just possibly) be playing for a top-5 team in the best league in the world. Take Arse, Chel, ManC and ManU out and the rest is anybodies game.

Can't disagree with most of that , but it is more than a rumour we are clearly in for him , whether we get him " over the Line " remains to be seen, but adding him and remy or someone of that class , would be bloody amazing , and we could seriously threaten the top 10 again or even top 8.

1. True, but isn't that a bit of a stereotype? I'm saying 'what if'

2. Maybe, maybe not. Lot's of 'the mighty' have fallen in the last year. The Pool have had an up&down season, Everton and Newcastle almost got relegated. Outside the top 4 were talking about teams like Swansea, Spurs, Stoke, Spurs and Southampton. I did say 'just possibly'. I know it's far fetched but stranger things have happened. Yes ... honestly ... they have ;-)
