Deadline Day thread (Arsenal + Non Arsenal)

I'm starting to think there will be late drama involving Zaha.

Luiz isn't the top player I was hoping we'd get, but I would rate it at 6/10, which is better than the 1/10 that Mustafi is.

The fact that he'll most likely start for us means there's similarr potential for damage. I'd rather use Chambers until Holding is back... unless maybe he's off in the late window drama. Chambers and Iwobi out, Zaha in?

Iwobi + money to Palace, Zaha to Arsenal?

100% Iwobi and Zaha are discussing deals right now, and it seems strange for it to be Everton in both cases.

I'm thinking Chambers + the money we'll get from selling Iwobi to Everton. That would make more sense for Iwobi too, who I don't think is too keen to join Palace.

If he's not better than Chambers, then we don't need to start him. I highly doubt that he won't be, though.

Right, and we also don't need to sign him, but here we are.

I don't know about Chambers, but Iwobi -> Everton and Zaha to us seems on.

Palace have been really busy bringing bodies in this week.

We don't need to do anything. That a player will start even if he isn't better just because we signed him doesn't make sense.

Klaus

What doesn't quite make sense to me is that we're bringing him in as a desperate last-minute grab if we have no intention of starting him. But we'll see soon enough.

Clrnc

He will be starting because he is better than our other options as a CB. simple enough

I really hope it's on. I need this to lift my mood after the mess we've got in defence.

It's a shame Iwobi seems to be going though. Zaha and Wobers on the left and Pepe and Nelson on the right would be a terrific setup. Two good wingers of high Premier League quality and two big talents behind them.

This.. plus I don't know why you'd start Chambers ahead of him. I dont particularly think he's any better than Luiz

Put a good bet on them being relegated if they sell him

Come on Klaus cheer up stop being so negative mate, this is easily the best window we've had in a decade

Uncork a bottle of rotten fish and celebrate with the rest of us

I said the same thing when the links to us started to pop up, Clrnc. I had a look at a Palace forum a few weeks ago and several of them seemed to think the same. I get why Palace have been reluctant to ship him off.

Too many unknowns (and a few knowns...) for me to be comfortable, plus we haven't fixed the biggest problem area. We'll see where we're at when everything has been said and done though.

Andy Carroll back to Newcastle 😆

To me having the intention of starting him doesn't equal to keep starting him even if Chambers proves to be the better option.

The only way I can see Palace selling is if they get Iwobi in return. It's too late for them to get anyone else of a similar quality this late.

Unless they have been planning for this eventuality for a while and have someone lined up. But I've heard nothing and the fact that they allowed Allain Saint-Maximin to go to Newcastle last week gives me the impression they didn't anticipate the transfer request from Zaha.

Coombs

They're looking at Sarr.
