Yes £40m asking price for a guy with a year left on his contract is a lot. But Palace would surely negotiate? And this is their captain, a proven PL defender and an England International so his pedigree is there
But we were happy to chuck £30M or thereabouts on Reis in January. An unproven 18 year old from Brazil with barely 50 appearances to his name
And the dippers are signing some 18 year old Italian from Parma for £26M. Again on the basis of promise.
What the actual fuck is going through the minds of the people who make these decisions? Essentially quibbling over £10m and possibly even less over a far superior prospect who as much as can be is a player who can slot in immediately.
Guehi is 25 and in his prime. It's an utter no brainer to sign him instead of these "promising younsters" we seem to be after these days. We aren't in the days of fucking Stuart Pearce any more.

Looks like McAtee could be one his way soon

how the fuck are we getting less for McAtee than Ipswich are getting for some lad who is worse?
The sell on and buy back must be very favourable for us

If he goes to that shit hole after the season starts he'll have ruined his legacy here, for me.
He said a month ago that his future is here at City. His own words. He's been City's most important keeper EVER (not going to say best), and he's been integral to the way we've played the last 5+ years.
But to move now, especially after it seemed the plan was get Trafford in and he learns from Ed for a year, it will be a massive kick on the teeth.

Things change Mase. His legacy is golden for me. We were back at 5s last night. The blues all said the same. We sell when it’s right but get a few wrong. Palmer, Delap maybe McAtee. If he goes Donner must be on his way? My 10p worth, we seem to be in an odd position so close to the start of the season. Guehi seems the easiest deal and a massive fuck of to the scousers I’d pay 50 mill he’s 25. Not sure why but a solution like that… for very little risk.

Don't think he's injured? So make of that what you will.
