Looks like a panic buy. Johnson ain't the Mae West either....he's a very limited player.

He wants AC Milan now, immediately even if initial agreement was for June 2026. €3.5m salary net per season agreed with Milan. Palace and AC Milan, on it. Fab |

Has looked like a passenger for a while Slippy, imo. Must be gut-wrenching nevertheless.

Can’t be good to see for you, Slippy. They sell a couple of A-listers and replace them B-movie stars!

Blimey, Guessand has been bang average for Villa, and that's being kind. Palace are falling fast. They do look the third worst team in the PL as things stand. Next 4 games crucial for them, including home matches against Burnley and Wolves.

I think Strand Larsen is a decent player (much prefer him to Johnson and Guessand) but £50m!! Jesus wept

Liverpool, in talks to sign Lutsharel Geertruida as new defender.
Initial contacts took place with Sunderland as Arne Slot knows him well since Feyenoord times. #LFC in club to club negotiations Fab |

Kerkez exposed at left back yesterday, van Dijk the week before. Defence @nything but dependable at present.
How is it that defenders who are paid thousands of pounds a week don’t take care of basics, like always endeavouring to get goal side of potential attacking threats? |
|
By:
Because they have 90 minutes, and have more than one task.
If a team parks the bus it helps remove risk of a defender being exposed. If defender gets forward in attack and other team get ball they can hit that space quickly. Look at Liverpool second goal yesterday as fine example of full back in press, exposed by quick ball and good running by striker. |
|
By:
They have 90+ minutes and their prime task is to defend. All that requires is concentration on the basics. Easy.
|
|
By:
Well yeah, if they disobey manager and just defend
that should be simple. Then they can sit in reserves until they get with the plan. |
|
By:
It’s not about “just” defending, it’s about doing it right when it is required/essential, putting in the effort. The guy can be tired after the game. It’s laziness, mental and physical.
|
|
By:
Not possible to run 40 yards in a second to cover somebody running
into the space you leave by attacking as requested by manager. It's a game of creating advantages and overloading space by moving defenders forward is a common tactic. If you lose ball, or over press, you can be countered as by trying to create an overload you have left a vacuum. 2 teams parking the bus will guarantee a 0-0 |

He didn’t have to run forty yards but it is possible.

Jamaal Lascelles apparently leaving Newcastle
for Leicester City. Top man is Jamaal, sad to see him go, but happy if he's going to be playing. |

Fulham reject Everton's bid for Harry Wilson; they don't want to sell even though he has only 6 months contract left. The way he's been playing I'd be happy if Spurs stepped in.

By:
Would you think Fulham could afford to make a contract offer which might keep him Aspro.
|
|
By:
They're taking a risk, for sure. I would imagine he'd get a better offer outside though. Big asset to lose for free, not going to be relegated and have little chance of a European berth so why not let him go now?

By:
Yes. Ty.
