Thanks. Good piece. Hope we don't lose him to Palace. Sent from my iPad using Tapatalk

12m for a striker whose confidence is shot, control is gone, and all round play not even a quarter of what it was pre injury. Amazing money Sent from my iPad using Tapatalk

12m is amazing money for him. Doubt v much if we will get that Sent from my iPad using Tapatalk

It was based on a news report saying palace had the same shortlist of two but were more advanced in the talks. Do the maths. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

The unravelling scenario makes me wonder if Les et al are wildly overblowing our attractiveness as a club, especially along the issues outlined by Martin Samuel. Still, have to wait and see. But the mood music doesn't sound good so far. Can't say I am at all excited about a de Boer season ahead.

We may be getting Palace's second choice... Southampton and Crystal Palace are close to appointing new managers - with Mauricio Pellegrino and Frank de Boer on both clubs' final shortlists. Sky Sports News HQ understands that Palace's search may be the more advanced, with Pellegrino and De Boer the hot favourites to replace Sam Allardyce at Selhurst Park. Pellegrino has caught the eye of clubs across Europe after he led Alaves to a ninth-place finish in La Liga and an appearance in the Copa del Rey final.

Samuels is not wrong, but we were also right to sack Puel. Assuming his replacement will be better, of course.

wrongly

Anyone else think the away one is ghastly? Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

Agree. The kind of player who needs consistent game time.

FDB favourite with us AND Palace http://www.football.london/crystal-palace-fc/news/frank-de-boer-palace-southampton-13193812

Hasn't he just won the league? Seems a long shot Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

Is 50 bad? he seems to have something about him

Would be good. Giggs would be a disaster

That sound you can hear is Les screaming 'doesn't anyone want this job?' Maybe. Or perhaps it's Mauricio. Or Jaap. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk
