Has it actually been lifted? I've seen no official announcement from UEFA as of yet.
His body language after he scored was telling; he seemed like he couldn't have cared less.
No chance. What top club will be interested at the price Palace will want (especially factoring in the 25% clause we have)?
He’s 28 soon and whilst that’s by no means old, for his price tag clubs will want a longer term investment.
Official: Hellas Verona get Marco Benassi from Fiorentina on loan with a purchase option.
We weren't. He was offered to us. Unless you've seen Man Utd linked to other LBs other than Reguillon and Telles?
Wonder if there's a way for us to waive our 25% if they sell to Dortmund
I don't think it has been lifted, they just relaxed some criterias and some will be adjusted and slide through next season.

Two reasons:
1: He was loaned to Trabzonspor for two years. A transfer this summer would mean an early termination of that contract.
2. Trabzonspor has an option to buy for about £7mill included in the loan deal. Confirmed by the agent. (Norwegian source)
No big club will buy Zaha. His level is CP. I feel for him but he needs to lower his ambitions. If he was good enough, he'd be gone by now.
So if Trabzonspor's receiving the offer, then we should be expecting an announcement from either them or Crystal Palace of a Sorloth permanent transfer.
I think you quoted the wrong post, but I agree, I don't think he's good enough for a top club unless he wants to be a backup player.
Romero is 33.. He has ~3 seasons in him... and his wages, I would imagine, would be a couple of million more than Martinez every season.
Big fish, small pond. He'll flop at a big club just as he did at United the first time he tried to escape from Selhurst Park.
I’m guessing they’re just holding off on that until its done and duated. Crystal Palace probably staying quiet since they fecked up with a bad deal in the first place 
surprised like you though, would kind of expect this to stay quiet until the announcement of a completed deal.

Great Post. Fully agree.
I think you are right about social media playing a huge role in how players are treating. It seems everyone is continually analysing players and all putting their two pennies worth in online. Back in say Eric's day you'd discuss him with your mates down the pub but wouldn't dedicate hours to reading forums and comments in different threads.
I wonder if the need to be an top top professional player their is a need to ensure they are constantly at their physical peak meaning you get less "characters"?
I think that is very true. I know the money is ridiculous now but I wonder if player had a little more "fun" back in the day when they would be out on the pass after a game on a regular basis. As prime athletes they can't get away with that these days of course but I've heard some cracking stories about players on nights out.
I think he's a different player now compared to the one that left Utd. As for being a flop I think it was a case of change of manager who didn't see him playing for their team(was brought by Sir Alex).
Id have to agree with you on the fact that he's unlikely to appeal to a big Big club. He may fit at a bigger club than Palace but your right in the fact he's a big fish currently and probably given licence to dictate where and how he plays within the team. He won't get such conditions elsewhere.
I might be wrong but I'd be surprised if dortmund went for Zaha. He's not their usual type of signing as they would have to pay a fair amount of money and won't be expecting much in return from their investment given hes 28 (I think). I could be wrong though if they ask to remove the sell on fee if they agree to sell Sancho.
Sancho smokescreen for this....
Just joking he's going to Madrid or staying at PSG for ridiculous money.
No disrespect to France but he has to leave to test himself at the highest level consistently. Potentially a generational player but had to produce it in a top league over multiple seasons. England or Spain.
100% agree. I see him at Madrid but I could also see PSG giving him Messi wages to keep him.
FFS. Can we at least get through this window before we start next summers saga.
Next summer will be the epic striker window, with both Mbappe and Haaland looking to move, and City, RM, Bayern, Juventus all in the market for a striker.
Maybe this is the reason for Liverpool's frugality this summer. I'd abandon our pursuit of Sancho too if there was a chance of getting Mbappe.
I wouldn’t. You don’t pause certain progress for “a chance”. You sign Sancho this summer if you can because he’s potentially world class in his own right. If you have a real shot at Mbappe next summer and have to sacrifice someone, then that’s what you do then. But if he goes elsewhere then you already have the pieces in place for a great front three.
@mazhar13 on why trabzon can negotiate with Leipzig:
Trabzon has loaned him for 2 years and has a reasonable buy option on him. He had a crazy good season in Turkey last year and the interest for his services has therefore been great. If a 3rd club wants him they therefore need to negotiate a deal with Trabzonspor first. The rumors says that Leipzig have offered Trabzon a package about EUR 20m. Trabzonspor might pay EUr 9m to Palace due to the option. In other words the Turkish club can make a profit of about EUR 11m for a player they have just loaned for 1 season. Crazy good business

Nobody could afford Mbappe. If he wants out of PSG he'll have to let his contract run down.
Haaland will 100% move to Bayern within the next couple of years. Nailed on Lewandowski replacement.
Cuz after last season he KILLED any chance of a big money move away.
Sancho as backup to Mason
Mbappe as backup to rashford
Then haaland as back up to martial
Sounds good

Never happening, he will end up at either madrid or stay at psg. Just because liverpool won a title doesn't mean they suddenly get upgraded to the big boys table in the transfer market, they can't afford either the fee or the wages.
So if he went to Liverpool he’d have 1-2 years of klopp before he “takes a break”. That would be handy then for mmmbopp to move on to Spain
Not that he’s in Liverpool’s shopping range anyway
Why would he do that? He's not German. In fact, he has always been saying he wants PL, where his father played. He was also born in England (Leeds).Even though he chose BvB now, it would not be surprising if he reunited with OGS, which he holds in high regard.
Bayern is below clubs like United, Liverpool, Real, Barca as a dream destination for Norwegian players.
