Why do you expect loyalty from footballers as they are merely employees of the club and are just as entitled to move employers as we are

Don’t think the OP was expecting it, but there used to be loyalty. In any case I don’t think it applies here. YC wasn’t as loyal to Newcastle or PSG as he was to Palace given he saw out his contract here.

Good luck fella. Will never forget that cracking goal against Arsenal!!

 


So I manage a Workshop which provides a safe learning environment for blokes struggling with PTSD and other mental health issues. Being a Palace fan isn't listed yet.

He's been on almost £100k a week for last 3 years, how much money does a person need?

Disappointed he's left but not surprised, no loyalty in football

Not from us he wasn't!

 


Optimistic as ever

Make no mistake. This is a huge blow for us and it is imperative we replace him.

He’s the one player we have in the team who can bring the ball down and play. People keep referring to Riedewald as his replacement and I just don’t understand the logic behind it.

I love Jairo, and he should definitely feature more for us. But he is a centre half turned holding midfielder. They are entirely different players.

...and Wan Bisakka a winger turned full back, or henry a winger turned Centre forward..even Southgate was a midfielder turned center back...so there is no logic to your point

Yohan is obviously going, like most top "name" footballers before him, to use the last couple of years of his active footballing life to round off matters with a nice fat pay cheque. Don't blame him at all and wish him well. He's been a class act during his time at Selhurst.

Looking back to the days before the name "Pardew" became too toxic to mention in Selhurst circles, it was widely thought that Yohan had enjoyed working with Pardew at Newcastle and that that was a big factor in his decision to come to SE25. If that be true, that is something for which we can thank AP.

It's disappointing that Yohan sees his future with ISIS, I didn't think we were that bad.

Lee
Delaney
Loftus-Cheek
Cabaye
Fosu-Mensah

Any more to come? - replacements nil

Forward planning? - never heard of it.

Result? Willo please explain.........

Palace paid Paris Saint Germain in the order of £10m for Yohan Cabaye plus we paid £5m per year in salary plus agents fees, bonuses that means it cost Palace between £8.5-9m per year for his services.
It was not loyalty that kept him at Palace for three years.
This sort of transfer policy is unsustainable.

Of course it is if it applied to every member of the squad but if we want to stay in or even progress in the big boys club you cannot do it with journeymen and need a touch of class in addition.

I dont think we saw the best of him under Pardew who put him on a pedestal and kept reminding the other player how lucky they were to play with him. To me he played his best football under Sam and Roy when he became just one of the squad and had to fight for his place. Will be missed though

replacing who a center half and winger that hardly got a game,
2 loan players one only got half a season playing time, the other turned out tobe a very good player that Chelsea will either keep or sell for 60mil,
and Cabaye who couldn't play 90mins on 100k, who looked for one last big payday before calling it a day and good luck to him.
food for thought maybe just maybe we may be able to replace Cabaye with wilshere with wages saved, yes i have seen he is talking to west ham but he has been talking to everyone.
so we get another 2 loans get replacement for Cabaye,we still have time for loans and buying seasons hasnt started and the panic button has been hit already

There is no answer to that question in this day and age. The more money you have the more lavish life you can lead. Can’t begrudge him going for the dough at his age.

Delaney and Lee may not have played very much but we do need a squad of players and not just a first eleven and our lack of cover last season for strikers and keepers could have cost us dearly but fortunately Lady Luck shone on us.

It's all well and good saying that we should get a couple of loan players but don't forget that our recent record in the loan market hasn't been particularly good and last season's loanees were the exception rather than the rule

Well, now he's gone it is obvious we urgengtly need a replacement, someone better than him who can hold the ball and move forward with it.
This type of player is like gold dust.
Any suggestions?
I can think only of Jack Wilshere (who should have gone to Russia, a holding midfielder is what England really need right now and one Palace need even more)
