Obviously the fire sales started early. pickfords injured or he'd be gone I bet and getting rid of Defoe would give the game away ala Hull selling Snodgrass. We post in interesting times.

The game will be given away when we either spend or don't spend the money from PvA's sale. If he comes in on loan and we spend £6-£8m on a player, the you can say we've sold to try and shape it up and it's not a firesale. If we get two loans in and Lescott then they've accepted relegation.

BTW I still don't believe Defoe or Pickford would be sold. There's too much of the season left and too much money at stake to chuck the towel in.
 
We really have had Palace's pants down in recent years, a combined £20-21m for Wickham and PVA :lol:
I agree it's a great price but we're going to loan someone and not replace him properly. Next season we'll have no left back and probably have no money to buy one ffs. No winners here apart from PVA who'll be getting a better deal for himself

Aye you're reet. I worded that a bit wrong.
 
He and Khazri will have played together presumably, playing in front of his old team mate may bring out the Khazri we saw last season, be like a new signing if that happened! PVA was a great attacking threat but £12 million for a defender who can't actually defend is good business if we reinvest it elsewhere. It was said before this that Moyes had a little money to spend hence the Brady bid, let's hope we can get a midfielder and striker in and we may just have a chance.

Perfect summation of it all like.
 
If we aren't going to make a net spend in the window then loaning in the likes of Contento, selling PVA, and reinvesting the funds, is probably the best chance we have of survival. It won't help us come the Summer but not wanting to repeat the mistakes of the past, we'll have to deal with that issue then assuming we survive.

The only thing I don't like is selling to Palace. They are clearly in dire trouble themselves and despite the apparent dislike of PVA on here and the belief it's a good deal for us, BSA knows the player and what it takes to stop up in the PL and if it's clear he rates him and thinks he will significantly improve Palace.
