My view is that if we want to progress we must keep both Andersen and Guehi for another season as our centre backs. Mostly they have been outstanding and one element of our team which is far superior to the rest in the bottom half of the table. I don't buy the argument that any realistic replacement will be anywhere near the same quality as either player.

I wonder if it is a case of simple economics. Maybe we are in the position where we have to sell someone every couple of seasons just to balance the books and he has been identified as the one we could do without. I hope that's not the case but you have to wonder.

Personally I think Richards is very capable of filling Guehi's boots if he could just stay fit. Also better in the air Ah the if only he can stay fit dilemma

The money is made upon exit from improvements in equity valuation.

I think at the moment Andersen, Eze, Olise and Doucoure are must keeps, Guehi as good as he is, he is easily replaceable should a 60m+ offer comes in. You dont have to have great defenders to have a great defence, just a coach that can organise it.

I know. Especially Palace. But since Roy has come back it has been dreamy.

Cannot see Guehi or Eze/Olise leave this summer unless a crazy offer comes in. We are talking about 75/80 mill for our brilliant central defender, even more for the above-mentioned duo.

You dont have to have great defenders to have a great defence, just a coach that can organise it. I wouldn't say Guehi is easily replicable. He's the most composed defender I think I've seen at any team. IMO his only real area of weakness is aggression and arial ability. Which comes to a head with set plays. Of the 2 I'd think it would be easier to replace Andersen. But hey, with 60/70 mil I'd be ok with either going.
