Its wise of Glasner to put a spanner in the works, anything they'd achieve without an Eze replacement, let alone losing Guehi at the last hour would be tantamount to suicide... Especially with a Europa... Sorry... Conference League campaign.

They signed Pino from Villarreal as Eze's replacement.
Such a shame Guehi not leaving. I wonder how he feels. Could have gone to champions elect, Liverpool but instead stuck at Palace.. two players throw toys out of pram and get their moves. He doesn't and doesn't. Seems too professional not to carry on regardless but there must be a bit of bitterness there. I was hoping he would go cut price, Palace would struggle and Glasner would walk so this is annoying to the extreme.

Not the end of the world for him. Wouldn't be guaranteed to play at Liverpool, so now he'll play a lot for Palace, be centre back for England at the World Cup and then he'll be out of contract in the summer where there might be other clubs interested and he can possibly get a better contract offer.
Donnarumma joins Man City for £26m... that feels like a steal!!
Interesting that City have gone for the best shot stopper, rather than a keeper who's brilliant with his feet.
James Trafford must be fuming. Clearly would've thought he'd have the chance to be City's number 1 for years.
Trafford had one poor game with City and he was instantly replaced with Donnarumma. That blows. I'm sure Trafford was also touted to be City's longterm number 1. Isn't he from their academy? Romantic. Well, I guess he should have joined the red side of Manchester for a nailed spot.
Players like Isak and Wissa should get booed at every ground they play at.
Probably won’t make much difference, but they should know that their reputations are not respected if this is the sort of behaviour they’re going to encourage in the game.

But Guehi got his head down and played and didn't get the move he wanted.

In other words - he performed his job as stipulated in the contract he signed.
Liverpool had been linked with Guehi for weeks so i don't know why they left it so late. Even if Palace wanted to keep him to ensure they qualified for the conference league then Liverpool should've had a deal done and ready to be signed on Friday morning after the game.

With the Guehi move falling apart, players are now explicitly shown that you need to throw your toys out of the pram to get the moves you want.
Blame the teams for feeding into the poor decision making.

Rather than blaming players for signing contracts they don't want to honour?

Blame both. The worst thing Isak did for himself was not get his supposed gentlemen’s agreement put in writing and that’s on his agent

Allegedly Wissa's was in writing. Does that make his behaviour OK?

No but it meant he had a stronger hand than Isak did. Not sure where I suggested the behaviour from either of them was ok

You might want to re read what I said. I said the worst thing he did for himself was not get the promise in writing, his move would probably have been smoother in that case.
Of course downing tools is a worst thing to do but he might not have needed to do that if he and his agent had got it in writing
After the disappointment of not getting MGW or Eze, I feel reasonably pleased with the work Spurs have done to bring in Kolo Muani and Simons.
We've now got proper pace and quality all across the front 3.
Obviously we've got to see how they go in the PL but Muani is in the Isak mould. Quick, two footed, good in the air, knows where the goal is and can hold the ball up. I know we were after him when he was in Germany but then PSG blew out of the water offering silly money for him. 18 months later, here he is. Genuinely excited by him. Its a definite step up from the likes of Solanke and Richarlison. My French mate (ST holder at Fulham!) said Muani is known more for his miss in the World Cup Final than anything else.

I'd genuinely think about that so often if I was him, that I should have won the World Cup and been a hero and missed.
Hopefully he's less inclined to do so!
I like Xavi Simons, if only for the fact his face looks like he's about to cry about 90% of the time.

I was hoping he would go cut price, Palace would struggle and Glasner would walk so this is annoying to the extreme.
Or Liverpool will just sign him in January.
