The squad needs loads of work this summer as, clearly, there aren't enough players in the squad who can play this way to any sort of acceptable standard. The bench on Saturday was appalling and we need depth. None of those players on the bench leaving is going to generate any meaningful cash so I'd think we're all set for Guehi and Olise to move on. Hopefully we get something in the £110 - £120m range, and then you're looking at bringing in 5 or 6 of decent quality.

I actually hope we do sell that pair, and bring in 5/6 players, Glasner is almost unique in Palace terms, he has done well at every club he has been to, but the squad needs improving in his style, i hope that only Ward is given a 1 year extension and all others are sold, must keeps, Johnstone, Andersen, Eze, Doucoure and Mateta. add LWB, CD, CAM and CF, at least.

One big plus with Munoz is his desire to get into goalscoring positions.

I would add Munoz, Wharton, Richards and Lerma. We need to be building a squad this summer so unless we get offered silly money, all these guys are good to stay.

Guehi is so good on the deck, he's pretty unique. Transfer market has their respective values at €38.00m for Guehi, and €10.00m for Richards.

Having said all that Richards is better in the air.

Think we all would love a team incl. Olise, Eze, Guehi and Doucoure! But we certainly need an upgrade on Hughes, Schlupp (look knackered after 10 min on the pitch), Ward and Ayew. That costs money which we will have to take from sale of star players. We should bank around 140-150 mill for let us say Olise and Guehi - that would go a long way to get some really good players in that will overall improve our team.
