If it is a swap deal UEFA will probably start dismantling the stands.

Yes please to Mateta.

If we got Mateta I think that would  cause an interesting reaction from people who were aghast at losing Malen.

As a pessimist, I’m going to say that the Mateta talk is to out pressure on Besiktas. We wouldnt buy both, surely?

I don’t really think Mateta is all that, but if it got rid of Guessand as well…

I'd be amazed if Palace let Mateta go this month after selling Guehi. Their fans would be in uproar.

It’s like some sort of fire sale over there. Wharton next?

I'm sure I read that Palace were interested in Tammy, probably as they have one eye on Mateta leaving as he won't sign a new deal. Could be a transfer merry-go-round.
