Summer 2015 - Transfer Rumours, Speculation & Suggestions

[olaftab]

Cabaye on his way to Palace.  I know he has had limited game time at PSG, but should we not be all over that?

He wants to go to London and the attraction of working with Pardew again (takes all sorts I suppose) means that Palace was the only place he was ever going to go.

Cabaye is so TK Mexx. Toon are welcomed to him.

Mark bunn joining on a free.
So far, two free signings in...... Going to be a long ass summer at this rate

Why?

I would suggest that is a replacement for the possible imminent departure of Shay Given.

Looks that way. Think steer would do as a backup though. Surely Guzan is off and were getting a new number one too

How depressing, we need to keep Benteke and Delph and spend £30mill just to stand still this season.
Palace signing players like Cabeye, really highlight the financial power of the premier league. Wether Cabeye is worth the fee and wages isn't really relevant, he is a quality player, who vastly improves Crystal Palace.
I hope this Gueye does sign, as he would at least fill the hole left by Delph.

...Who hasn't gone yet.

[Toronto Villa]

Who may not go at all. And Gueye could be a signing made to play alongside Delph instead of a replacement for him.

So we are after a 2nd choice keeper/ 3rd choice. Is this guy not simply the new Andy Marshall?

[ozzjim]

Cabeye has real fitness issues but is a quality footballer. However, at nearly 30 I am not sure he takes Palace much further forward than they are already. They sign Austin then fair enough as he will score a lot of goals for them.

If we get Amavi and Marvin though, then we have done pretty decent business already. If we lose Benteke and Delph, I do have some confidence that Sherwood will replace them and use the money to strengthen further.

[Matt Collins]

Has nobody started a mark bunn thread yet?

[Dave]

Go for it.

[PeterWithe]

I dont know anything at all about Mark Bunn, is he a young up and coming keeper or a gnarled veteran lower league journey man?

[ciggiesnbeer]

30 year old back up keeper from Norwich. I don't think he played at all last season for them.

So yeah, presumably being brought in as a number 2 as Shay is moving on and Jed is out injured and will then become the number 3 once Jed heals up.

Shrug, not inspiring but within our means. If you want to read into it (and I do) then I would say it indicates business at usual for the club and no change in our financial trajectory is imminent.

[RussellC]

I'd image that we're looking to loan Steer out again this season and therefore the thinking behind Bunn is to have an experienced deputy on hand, in much the same way that Andy Marshall was for years.
