Damn that’s COLD from the Palace fans

So. Many. Soft. Penalties.

PL refs are a joke.

We were linked to him early in the summer but I think the price tag scared us off. Bournemouth want over 70 for him is what was reported.

Oh lawd. Didn’t realize he’d cost that much. Inflation is rampant. He does count as home grown though I believe.

What made it so stupid is that it wasn’t even the actual ref. VAR spent what seemed like five minutes before awarding it. Fortunately turned out to be case of ball don’t lie after Bruno ballooned it about a mile over the bar.

I knew I liked Tommy Fleetwood during the FedEx St Jude tournament for a reason

Then Yoro allowed to push off on Bassey to create the space for his goal. The inconsistency is maddening.

And in true Bruno fashion, he complained about the ref.

@VolsLFC…even if the teams can somehow come to an agreement, would you even want Liverpool to buy Isak at this point?

I don’t know where he goes from here. He’s completely poisoned the well at Newcastle, and he’s actually handled it so poorly that I’m not sure other teams will see him as worth the hassle. He’s not THAT good.

Idk to be honest. We need more depth in the squad. From that standpoint, I do still want Isak. Not sure I want to spend $150M though, especially with his injury record. I feel like people are overblowing his reaction though. Only really seen one side to the story, and it does seem like he was given some promises to leave, which weren’t respected. Other players have acted like this before, including this window (eg Gyokeres), but Isak has been made out to be the anti christ.

I feel like Guehi is a more important signing but not sure it gets across the line either.
