What about the little Albino from Palace who always turns into Prime Zidane whenever we play them ?
Will Hughes could step into our team to give cover in our current emergency and be a great squad man.


IMO we have Barkley for that role and we shouldn’t put too many blockers in the way of Hemmings/Bogarde/Aloba etc.

I did say for our current emergency.
Barkley doesn’t play anywhere near enough games and we need experience right now.

I get your thinking as the fucker comes with his own exclusion zone but I reckon the Palace board risk lynching if they flog anyone else.

Yeah, I liked their South American CB too. Was from somewhere like Ecuador.


Ordonez? He looked absolute quality when we played them….surprised he didn’t move upwards in the summer

Every time I watch Palace I wonder how he even makes it into their side.

Speculation said he was destined for Liverpool.  Exactly the profile we should be targeting.  An understudy to Konsa and could grow to replace Konsa/Pau as they get older.

I think he’s there to do the dirty work for Wharton. He does a reasonable job of that but he’s not what we need.

Surprised Ordonez is still at Brugge. He was meant to be joining Marseille. We should get him either to provide competition to Konsa or replace him if we have to sell him (supposedly dragging his feet on signing a new deal and Liverpool meant to be interested).

I'd guess that seeing your international partner get £300k a week is going to turn your head a bit.
