I was of the opinion that Colwill is on loan, as part of Curcurella deal

I think it is going to be a very unnerving 8 days for us before the deadline finishes, have a feeling Wilf may go, hope he signs a new deal otherwise i think 25m and we will take it

I can't believe that Chelsea are that keen on Gordon. He is really enthusiastic and works hard but last season his end product was awful. In a team scrapping for survival you need that enthusiasm, but I don't see him improving a CL team for a few years yet. If Chelsea want quick results Zaha fits the bill, but thankfully it seems that story may have been paper talk. Arsenal seem the only other viable PL team, but they seem to have an U25 policy.

I think we have a strong enough team to compete but if we are serious about progressing we still need a couple more of real first-team quality. With no real strong leads for a while it feels like this last week of the window might be a bit of a damp squib.

The Sarr collapse at Villa worrys me, does he know something and has been told to hold his horses, can i patent "Hold your Horses"

Anybody know why Jairo was not involved against Oxford last night?
I wonder if he could be leaving this window either on loan or on a permanent deal.
It would surely be in his interests as well to try and resurrect his career elsewhere as he’s still young and clearly has no future at Palace even if he is on a decent contract.
The other thing that occurs to me is that Schlupp often picks up injuries over a season and tends to miss a few games here and there.
We really need another energetic midfielder in the squad as Luka and Hughes can’t provide this energy and Mcarthur’s availability is becoming less frequent .
Gallagher appears to be the preferred option, but if Chelsea decide to sell as opposed to loan he’s likely to be out of our range.

It’s been widely reported that he apparently told Gerrard that he wants to stay in the London area.
