Handful of games doesnāt sound accurate for Kiwior.
First name that came to mind is Josh Nichols but Palace loosening their stance over Eze for Nichols sounds ludicrous to me
Who?
Can Fabio V play centre back?

Also, wouldnāt they still owe us some money from the nketiah deal that surely could be used?
Just as we donāt want Chelseaās shite Iām sure Palace donāt want even more of ours either
Weāve got a Zinchenko, Lokonga and nelson they can have. And weāll pay 60m on top 
Nketiah and Rob Holding.. quite the daylight robbery from us with those two lol.
Though Ā£4m for Rob Holding was actually quite reasonable.
I wondered if there was a discussion going on about Nwaneri going to Palace on loan to give him minutes in exchange for Eze for Ā£60m. Personally Iām not adverse to this if we can get Eze and Rodrygo, along with a striker this summer and Nwaneri signs a new deal.

Ā£45m seems like a fantastic deal in this market.

45m would be great business. I just hope we still go for Rodrygo as well and this isnāt a deal we want to do instead of Rodrygo or another top left winger.

If this is true, then itās a no brainer for a player who has his best years ahead of him. His G/A record is quite good and should only get better playing for us. His injury record would be the only issue. Heās missed 5 games last season and 12 the season before due to injuries. So as long as heās not a regular starter (which could be the case), he should do fine.
I hope so too but that would just be too good to be true. I think itās Eze or Rodrygo, and Berta is just getting the Eze deal sorted (as backup) before he goes for Rodrygo (assuming weāve received positive signals from his camp). If we are looking to get both, then Eze is even more a no brainer.
I think this is actually where Madueke comes in. As subtitute for Saka Ɣnd Eze.
When it comes to Rodrygo I think itās more mediatalk than him moving from Real.

Oh man, this would be brilliant. Got tickets for the Emirates Cup so Iām selfishly hoping this and the striker are tied up soon.
Great fee, but Iām curious as to why theyāre allowing him to go for such a low amount. I thought his release clause was Ā£68m?
They probably regret that release clause, it provides buying clubs with very useful starting point for negotiation.
From Ezeās side, heās probably told Palace that he wants this move. For Palace, once youāve got a player who wants to be elsewhere, youāre fighting a losing a battle. Theyāve had some great service out of him. There also appears to be a good relationship between the two clubs, that matters in football these days. I wouldnāt be surprised if we agree to loan one of our surplus players to them on favourable terms towards the end of the window.
