Crystal Palaceās Europa League place in doubt after Uefa rejects ownersā blind trust move
Uefa has rejected offers from Palace co-owners John Textor and David Blitzer to put their shares in a blind trust so the club can compete in Europe next seasonwww.theguardian.com
This is potentially massive for Palace. And not in a good way.
It could benefit Forest if Palace canāt find a way through this - but I wouldnāt be happy about it. Palace deserve it, as do their fans.
A massive issue with multi club ownerships

Surely the place goes to the previous season's losing finalists.

In all seriousness- have you seen Gyokeres play ?
Certainly scored a lot of goal in the last two seasons
What sort of striker is he ?

Spain tearing Frances defence apart.
2 goals in 3 minutes in the first half and two more in two minutes in the second.
Now France have a penalty but can't see them making a comeback.

Game gets interesting.
Was 4-0 and 5-1 to Spain but France have just scored twice. 6 mins to go...can they get the 2 goals to send the game into extra time.

If the Portugal who dominated Germany last night turn up then the Nations League final will be a cracker.

Being at risk of PSR doesn't mean a club cannot spend a penny.
What's Ā£150 million these days, for a wealthy club that apparently needs a complete new squad? Liverpool are almost spending that on one player
The club clearly needs to make cuts in many areas of the business, as it was run so inefficiently before. Sadly, as soon as Utd dipped into the transfer market, many were just going to use redundancies as a stick to hit Utd with.

A very good one in a 3-4-2-1 formation.
This season he has 39 goals and 8 assists in 33 games. A smidgeon better than Rasmus!

Bit harsh to compare against a 22 year old
When Gyokeres was the same age he was being loaned out to the championship - he is 27 now
From the videos he looks a very good finishing , powerful , not sure about pace but one that will finish chances as opposed to be creating them
Stats in Portugal are good but there have been many with a goal a game record etcs that have moved on and got nowhere near , even Nunez in his last season got 26 in 28. In the championship it was 17 in 45 and 21 in 46
Stock went through the roof after the hat trick against City in the CL
Thought he was the sort of striker Arsenal would want but they seem to prefer the younger Sesko -it is a player the manager likes and worked with so itās going to be interesting to see how he goes if he is signed

He also had a reasonable record in the Championship earlier on in his career which does point towards him standing more of a chance in the Prem rather than having had no experience of English footie.

It's so hard to judge a player like this. Good in the Championship, and in Portugal, but good enough for the step up to the Premier League? Who knows.
I looked at his international record - 15 in 26 is undeniably good. But it turns out 10 of the 15 were against Azerbaijan or Estonia! So we still don't know!

Its pretty simple - sign him to Brighton and he will be insane and sold within 12 months for 100m+
Sign him to United and he's a bust

It is very hard to judge when players come into the prem from other leagues
There have been lots of successful players but then a heck of a lot more than have just found the Prem not right
He has scored a lot of goals , looks a machine , but against the other top two sides in Portugal in the 6 games he scored 1
Haaland was scoring for fun when he came over form Germany but he was 21.
But then we got Salah at 25 after he struggled early years
For a CF imo to do well in the Prem outside the obvious finishing ability they need to either have pace or be physically strong to get stuck in
Can only judge by the videos as only seen highlights of the game against City - but he does look a good striker
