They want nearer 70m for him. So ?? away
Thanks Herc
I can totally believe that since they've held firm on their valuation of Zaha for the last 2 or 3 seasons

Have we not had ITK suggesting that we would look to bring in a replacement if Trippier or Aurier were sold? It was a massive weakness last season -- Liverpool's very first action was to send a ball down the left channel for good reason -- and I can't see us leaving it unaddressed if we're able to raise funds by selling Tripps or Aurier.
Not a chance in hell they drop £30m just because he wants to come to usI’m hoping AWB loved our stadium so much (as revealed in a recent interview), he is willing to put pressure on CP to sell him to us.
£70m though - that’s probably double what he’s worth! Crazy money. If we can sell one of Trippier or Aurier, we should try to do a deal for £40m.. with the help of AWB and his agent.
Does the window not close before the season starts now? We can't leave it that late. The issue with KWP is that he isn't strong physically and he isn't exceptionally quick. He has great technical ability but you need more than that to play at RBI think Aurier has got more to come and, like most, am also baffled by KWP's lack of game time so I'd be all for moving Trippier on (and using the money where it's most needed) and passing on AWB at this price.
See how they both perform in pre-season/start of season and then seeing what's left in the coffers if necessary in August.
Was reported club wanted 34m for atal
He’s only worth £70m when someone’s prepared to pay £70m..

Except that each time we bring in players that late on there are ALWAYS excuses raised about the player in question not having had a proper preseason.I don't see an issue with leaving it until the day before the season starts. If an RB came in at the start of pre-season it's a maximum of a month.
If he came in on the 8th August instead I'd like to think we could cope with Aurier and KWP until he was ready.
Well then he can stay at Crystal Palace. I’m sure they’ll be happy enough.He’s only worth £70m when someone’s prepared to pay £70m..
No. He's worth that to CP since they don't need to sell and will have one of the best full backs in the league next season.

And learn from Zaha and not sign lucrative extentions that effectively tie him to Palace.Best thing for him is to stay another year, absolutely no rush for him to go anywhere.
