Bayern are getting a bargain at the reported £50 million. To put into context that’s half what Chelsea paid Brighton for Caciedo ( so forgettable that I probably can’t remember how to spell his name correctly). It’s a funny old world Saint… Yes, they are. Because Olise had a £60m release clause inserted when he signed a new contract last summer. I'm disappointed in his leaving now after the way last season finished. I thought he could have given Palace another year. Especially when you consider the amount of games he missed. The only consolation is he's not going to Chelsea.

It is £50m then that’s below market value IMO.

SSN are reporting that fee is £50.7m and we may have to part with £5m of that to Reading according to reports.

I'm just hoping that the ease and smoothness in with which we handled the deal scores some brownie points with Bayern if we want any of their squad players in future (like Richards was).

It's not so much bitterness, but it does lead to cynicism. It’s literally nothing new though. I’ve been a palace fan for over 30 years so unfortunately I’ve become immune to this sort of thing. I think most people understood that he would leave this summer and the ‘5 year deal’ was a way of the club getting a bit more money for him and for him to get over his injury and continue his development.

Players come and they go, the only loyalty is from the fans, Kamada is a good player and I suspect Franca will turn out good, if there’s no more release clauses no need to sell, IMO I would accept an 80m+ offer for Guehi, and reinvest in some championship talent Yea the come and go , a bit like a night out in Amsterdam. I'd be more worried about Glasner leaving he was only signed up on a 2 year contract , players can be replaced but a manager like that we cant do without .

We do have an option - don't sign them if they demand a release clause. It's almost as if the lunatics have taken over the asylum. It's about the executives taking control of the clubs they manage as opposed to the players controlling the clubs. I know the argument goes if it suits all parties what's the problem.
