Weirdly this video just came up on my feed. Ben Foster discussing how players are sounded out

https://vm.tiktok.com/ZGJbfYTPt/

FeedTheArf

The free Nathan Tella thing got me thinking about whether it could be seen as tapping him up which is a phrase that used to be around about 10 years ago and I think (?) some clubs even got charged for doing it. Almost every player we’ve signed has spoken about how Kompany talked to them before they ...

I find this a little distasteful to be honest. He’s not being held against his will at Southampton. He signed a contract with them.

I don’t find it funny or light hearted at all.

They’re hardly camped outside St Mary’s demanding his release are they! It’s a bit of fun!

Going to be a nightmare for the City game

Maybe we should pull a Luton and get the game postponed! Better still, just give us the 3-0 defeat now and we’ll be on our way!

My god if we sell Muric full stop, never mind for €8m, we need our heads examining! Turkish clubs always seem like the pawn shop of football clubs. They always end up underpaying for players (usually the ones clubs are happy to get rid of). Muric will have a rep in Turkey from his loan spell there ...

Dave Bacon?

Any with English commentary??

FeedTheArf

I think you have got that spot on. For what it’s worth Hudson Odoi at 8m looks like a steal. He’s still only 22 and we have seen first hand what he can do, when he tore Charlie Taylor a new one a few years back. That’s a player we could almost double in value in a season I think the only reason why...

great move from Burnley, unlucky townsend

You’re not Manuel Benson, you’re not Manuel Benson….

FeedTheArf

The reward is probably the fact that (IF we got relegated) the likes of Amdouni, Trafford, Beyer (not to mention Zaroury, Benson, Al-Dakhil and others) will wipe the risk out with their transfer value. It's gutsy - and was terrifying when we last got relegated, to me - but we know the strategy work...

FeedTheArf

Disappointed not to get a fee for him (assuming the loan fee is just contributing to his wages), but it was presumably the best offer on the table.

Good luck to him, I hope he gets some regular game time!

FeedTheArf

Obviously concerned for Mick, but it’s really heartwarming to see all the offers of help. There’s a lot of good people out there.

Hope Mick is OK!

I’m surprised that people are surprised at the reaction!

It was always going to happen. That’s not to say I agree with it.

According to Wiki he's actually contracted to Lausanne-Sport but on a 2 year loan to Basel (with another year to run). If that's the case we're probably going to have to do what United did and negotiate once to end the loan early and once with his parent club. Scratch that... according to Transfer ...

You should be able to buy two with your season ticket but weren't they on sale last week to season ticket holders? I thought it was general sale today. I think it was the 10th they went on sale to STH's, but you definitely can't buy an additional 2 as it counts your season ticket seat as one ticket...

Hi, I've just tried to buy a couple of extra tickets for Palace at home for my brother and nephew. I was under the impression that season ticket holders could buy 2 additional home games per ticket. I've tried to do that but an error message appeared saying I had booked 3 tickets for the game (my se...

The fact the club put it out on social media makes me think he could be here to stay. We'd look pretty stupid if one week was 'Wout's back', and the next 'Wout's gone'. IF he stays, (and it's a massive IF IMO), he's going to need to bag a few early doors to get the fans on side. Let's be honest, we'...

Can’t see there being anything in the Chilean lad link. Never heard of him but if the wiki page is correct I wouldn’t want him anywhere near our club, and I don’t think Kompany would either.

About a mile away from my house! From there you're closest to Watford underground station - maybe 5-10 mins walk (for an adult). That's on the Metropolitan line which will take you all the way into central London. It's slower than the overground line (which goes from the stations in Watford town ce...
