Just what the squad is lacking after Boufal left. A ridiculously talented, me-me-me sulker.

Does he play at right back?

Cheers for the update. No surprise about him being out of shape. Hopefully he gets better as he finds his rhythm.

I don't disagree. When was the last time Hughes started us with 4 at the back? Wasn't it the West Ham drubbing? So I don't really blame him being cautious.

Exactly the person we needed at the back against Burnley.

Friendly match?

Thanks. Hoping he does well.

Hesketh needs a loan without any doubt. Oxford or MK Dons would be good clubs.

Bats is right. EFL clubs can loan until Aug 31st.

So, with Ings coming in, I'm assuming Sam will get a loan move?

Fulham apparently have made a late move for Joe Bryan @ Bristol City (left back).

RLC will probably end up back at Palace

He can train while bids go in

Fulham rumoured to be back in at £14m https://www.footballinsider247.com/exclusive-london-club-table-14m-bid-for-southampton-player/

I'll wait until the Welbeck talk comes from somewhere remotely credible.

* Bristol City, mate.

Where the hell has that money come from?!

Bournemouth spend £25m (!) on Lerma.

Fulham confirm Chambers loan.

Burnley sign Vydra.

Not happening. https://www.telegraph.co.uk/football/2018/08/07/chelsea-agree-world-record-71m-fee-sign-athletic-bilbao-goalkeeperkepa/
