Originally posted by Canterbury Palace If this proves to be true then it is an absolutely monumental clusterf*** from the club. Not only because that release clause is half of what it should be (and I don't believe for a minute that we can't get these players without release clauses, Brighton seem to be able to). But also because if we knew it was there this entire time and haven't acted to source a replacement early knowing that he was probably off, it's ridiculous. Ayew has improved and Schlupp is fine but let's be honest, going from Zaha / Olise to Ayew / Schlupp is like shagging Jessica Alba one night and Pat Butcher the next. I'm still hoping it's somehow untrue but this is shocking news for the club otherwise. Politely disagree with that. As Midlands Eagle said if we didn't agree to the release clause at the time of signing then another PL club would have done. The weeds don't always get away with release clause, look at the relatively low value that Alexis went for to Liverpool, that was almost certainly a release clause. It's just not had the publicity that the Olise contract has had. By the way - nowt wrong with Pat Butcher!

Originally posted by doombear Exactly ME. It's now time to move on and find another cheap player and more than quadruple his value in 2 years before selling him. If we don't allow release clauses for players who clearly know they're good, they won't come to us. We have to use our profits to build more strength in the squad until we can start competing for things e.g. finishing high enough for a Europa league place. That’s the only way to look at it. The vast amounts of money being raised by these major clubs is making them more and more predatory regarding other clubs talent. We literally can not compete when it comes to retaining really good players. Palaces problem is becoming two fold though, , we got lucky calling Olise,s release clause, right now we will be pushed to not have to come up with £20 mill for a Championship talent ,the 19 year old Bristol to Bournemouth £20 mill move says where it’s at. On that basis £35 mill won’t go far.

Obviously it feels worse in light of the mega transfer deals being done & the way that transfer fees have risen somewhat dramatically again in the last week or so, but no doubt when we set that fee of £35 Million ( if thats what it was) then at the time it probably seemed like a good number, where we have probably missed a trick is in being able to raise it in time to benefit, but no doubt to raise a release clause both club & player would have to agree.

Originally posted by Midlands Eagle Quite right. We should have insisted on a much higher release clause so that he wouldn't have signed and gone to another club instead If I remember correctly we were the only club in for him at the time. If he felt the time was right to leave Reading and we were the only serious bidders we could have set a bigger release clause or better still offered him a cut of any future transfer fee instead. That would have kept him happy and protected us from losing him for peanuts. Still, it happens. Need to put it down to experience and move on.

The club would have known its highly probable he was going. Lets see if the club had contingencies in place in this eventuality and we're not going to just be reactive with no clear plan.. Losing Zaha and Olise in the window is huge. their goals and assists must be replaced We'll do it all again next summer with Eze. Dougie needs to earn his corn over the next 2 weeks and before next season thats for sure.

Fair point about Alexis but ultimately when you see Brighton selling player and player for huge amounts and then we've lost Zaha for free, Olise for half of his worth and Eze is into the final two years of his deal so will likely depart next summer for a pittance as well, it is just very annoying. Especially when there seems to be very little in the way of incomings. We were somewhere around Barstow, on the edge of the desert, when the drugs began to take hold...

I would like to congratulate The Athletic on their stunning, 100% accurate reporting on this issue. It's been so reassuring having them tell us he has a release clause, oh actually he hasn't, oh actually Palace have removed or raised it, oh actually it's 35m still but has magic conditions, oh actually Chelsea without Europe can just activate it when they like. Now that's reporting you pay for.
