Loftus Cheek hasn’t missed many games while at A C Milan in his 3 seasons there, seems to finally be over his injury problems.

Then the last place he wants to come is here. The ACL holy site.

Is the Mateta story just put out there to help get the Abraham deal over the line?
Obviously we already have it over the line, hence the separate thread. Will he link up well with Gallagher?

Jean-Philippe Mateta and his camp have informed Crystal Palace about desire to leave the club.

Following talks with Aston Villa and Juventus, Mateta hopes for January move with decision now in Palace hands.

Negotiations remain ongoing.

I remember when other teams’ fans used to envy us for the way we conducted our transfer business. 

What happened?

I get Danny Ings vibes from Mateta. Similar age to when we signed him, potential signs that he has past his peak goalscoring wise.

They belatedly realised that envy is the weakest emotion.

I watch Palace loads with father in law ( season ticket holder )  and hes 80 and struggles now with trains never running and the weather and cost so I always let him watch Palace here at home and he really likes Villa too as his grandson is mad Villa , you can imagine how we feel watching Villa v CP.

I would say If fans get on Watkins back regarding his easy chances missed then wait until they see Mateta play , he misses loads.

Grauniad reporting our interest in Mateta today.
I hope we can fob Guessand off on Palace, use our reported interest in Mateta to get the Abraham deal done, and then focus on getting in another MF.
Or just get Mateta.
I don't rate him very highly.

What we really want is a striker who converts 100% of his chances.
Does he exist?

I avoid the Watkins thread but from my experience down the match, the frustration with Watkins isn't always about the chances he misses, its that his control is shite, he doesn't seem to make his mind up so doesn't get a shot away at all, or he gives the ball away cheaply after doing the hard bit.

There's a lot he's good at. Staying fit for one.
