Looks like he is heading to Palace on loan. Would be a good deal for all parties involved. He needs game time more than anything now. Would be a waste if he spends most of the season on the bench, like last season.

Will be interesting to see what position he'll be playing there. Hope he plays regularly there and becomes the monster we know he can be. :D
 
Right thing to do. I don't see him getting much game time here, excuse the muppetry, but perhaps this signals that another signing is close?
 
Yeah, pretty good move this for him if he gets minutes under his belt. Hopefully he can hold down a spot in their XI.
 
Probably the right move, he needs game time.

It will be interesting to see how they use him.
 
Good move for his development, makes a lot of sense really. Hope he is a starter for them and can kick on an be a first team player for us when he returns, I'll be following him closely.
 
Good move if he actually gets regular games but our luck with prem loan moves has been poor recently

Yeah I feel like the Aurier rumors might be solid because of this deal
 
Really hope that goes well for him if it goes through. About time we saw if his ability at youth level translates to top-level football. Think he might do well.
 
Like Pereira last year he needs a season of consistent senior football under his belt. Hopefully this works out well.
 
Good move for him, not sure what formation they play, read he might be played as a right sided CB in 3 CB system but de Boer used to play 4-3-3 always (at least that's what I thought).

Hopefully he gets proper game time.
 
He needs game time. If he played regularly there it'll prove to be a good move for him and us.

He won't play against us right ?
 
Yea why put some trust in him and give him minutes this season, God knows he aint any worse then seniors out of form. Better to loan him and then sign that dickhead moron from PSG.
 
Excited to see him get a full season of playing time. It's what he needs desperately to kick on to the next level.
 
Hope he gets proper game time and come back strong next season to claim a place in first team.
 
A season for a struggling team is exactly what he needs. Has great physical attributes but needs to learn how to defend. Should have a lot if defending to at Palace. Really looking forward to seeing how he does.
 
Wish people would stop saying see how he is at the back, he's a dm. That's his main position he plays , he was just used by lvg and Jose in another because he's diverse.
 
Perfect loan move and we'll get a true insight into his ability to play at PL level....
 
Would surely make more sense to sort Aurier/replacement RB before this goes through?

Bit miffed he is going on loan but then its the best thing for him and he needs the experience of playing week in week out. Now we just need the ''must be an automatic starter'' clause put in the loan agreement. ;)
 
Should be a good loan hopefully this time next year he will be ready for out first team.
 
I think that's why he and Ridewald were targeted. Both can play as pure CBS, wide CBs , wingbacks and as mifielders.

Should be good for him too as playing as wingback should improve his attacking game and when to make attacking runs.

At least one more reason to watch Crystal Palace games.
 
Would rather keep him and rotate him with Valencia. The Aurier signing stinks for me, is relatively cheap in todays market but with his off field issue's it highlights a risk.

Why sign somebody to rotate RB with Valencia when we already have an option there? Signing somebody from abroad will mean possibly take time to settle in, may not suit prem etc. Making work for ourselves when we have good RB options already

Because Aurier is one of the 2-3 best right backs in the world, if not the best

Er Aurier is significantly better than TFM.
