Looks a decent player, hopefully RC Lens' board are not as delusional as ours and demand £50m + sell on clause.

Don’t think that will put off Palace, a club on the up, and Dibbers wont need a tetanus booster when he signs the contract.

I reckon the Lens guy is a smokescreen.

My next concern would then be the wide player situation.

The Lens guy is for the wide position. Spertsyan is a totally different player.

I love this time of the window.

The bed wetting starts getting to extreme levels, outrage, rants and forum posters thinking transfers are "here is Southampton money, it's green and good" selling club "Southampton superior club than us must sell at whatever price and timing suits them otherwise bring great shame on village", player we want "I have to join Southampton, greatest club ever, must prove I can do it on a rainy night in stoke for family honour".

Krasnadors chief job is to do the best job for Krasnador, that's stringing it out as long as possible.

I could understand if we'd lost both games but we've done alright and haven't had a preferred 11 start yet.

We obviously haven't given them a deadline or it's not overdue for a decision, or more likely Player and President agreed a timeline before a decision so we wait and at some point Spors moves on or completes the deal.

To be fair, it's also that time of the window where people tell other people to stop wetting the bed when, 3 months later, the 'bedwetters' are often proved correct...

this is when I then get to use narcissistic injury as my response  🤣

[Pat from Poole]

If Palace do want Dibling, they must surely have one (or more) player who would be of use to us on a part-ex, who would struggle to get much of a look-in with them.

Just imagine how it must feel to play second fiddle in your own city for the whole of your football history with no chance of ever being the main club. Liverpool FC afforded our players over the years. But you’re not them of course.

He'd almost certainly be included in any deal IMO.

I know the current popular trend is for those 'swap deals' to be advertised as 'entirely separate deals, they're not linked', but they are. And it would be directly linked if it happened.

Maybe we can do one of those PSR dodgy deals.

They give us 100m for Dibling and we give them 60m for Rak-Saki. Pure profit on both sides and we can then buy everyone.

All in jest but it does bring the recent PSR Villa-Newcastle trades to mind. Football has completely lost its bearings.

If either player's contract sees them get a percentage of the sale, they are going to be very happy indeed!

The72 website suggests Plymouth, Barnsley, Orient and Reading are all looking to get Ballard.

Palace is definitely a better fit for him than Everton I think. 

Would be Ironic though if Palace got relegated and we went up.

Hopefully he can carve out a decent league career. I think he could be as impactful as Sam Hoskins was at Northampton, as long as he stays fit.

The injury came at a bad time for him for sure, but he's not really someone we need to be hanging onto anymore.

What about that Esse they signed from Millwall last season. Can't say I've noticed that he's had much game time. Looked a decent player when I saw him for Millwall.

Reading could be fun; go link up with Princewill's big bro.

£100m for the pair and they've got a deal....

that website doesn't look very credible?

[Ivan Katalinic's 'tache]

So we’ve bid enough, he’s happy to join us but Krasnodar are still not selling. I guess they’re hoping for a last minute panic offer?

Time to walk away… maybe then he might try and force the issue a bit.

Statistically he's worse than Edozie.  He was dropped by Sheff Utd for the run in last season and didn't exactly set the world alight before that.  Palace are desperate to shift him out and I think we'd be mugs to accommodate them.

Seems like a deal we could be persuaded to go for then.

We signed a guy in the final year of his contract for £11m after he'd snapped his Achilles (usual recovery time of around a year).

There are no bigger mugs.
