Yeah, don't think it was because a club changed their mind though. Apparently any deal can't be resurrected because Monoco refused to sign the Deal Sheet. Monoco and Everton has f**ked themselves, seeing that Everton let Beto go and now have just Barry. Couldn't have happened to two nicer football clubs 😂.

Isnt there cases where the paperwork was sent before the deadline but the final parts finalised after in some kind of special dispensation period?

Useless w**kers. They have completely f**ked us on the last day. They have had MONTHS to sort out the midfield, MONTHS! I said back in June that they were too slow and should have been getting things done quickly after our finish last season, but they moved at a snails pace as usual and wasted time trying to sign players like Xhaka on the cheap. They were played by City, they left it to the last day on purpose to weaken us and leave us scrambling to find a replacement, and these stupid twats fell right into the trap. They got completely outsmarted with that deadline bullsh*t, City called their bluff. Any competent ownership would have stuck to that deadline, but these clowns thought they were the smart ones. I said the other day it was too late to sell him, I knew these twats were too incompetent to sort the midfield out in time, so I'm not shocked at all, I'm just angry. We can point the fingers all we like at Monaco for cancelling the Camara deal at the last second, but this is on BlueCo, you can't bank on things working out in the dying hours. It's too risky. I also think they were bullsh*tting about wanting two midfielders, they couldn't afford it so put out their sh*tty little briefs to make it seem like they could. They couldn't do sh*t until Enzo was sold, but couldn't be sure how serious City were about Enzo because they delayed. They played games and they lost, making themselves out to be fools in the transfer market again, just as they were made to look like fools by Barcelona when they tried to sign Raphinha and Kounde. They've f**ked Alonso over big time now and all we have to hope for is that he is some miracle manager because he now has no midfield to work with until January, minimum. Forget about any hope of pushing Arsenal in the title race, it was never really on anyway, but any hope you did have is gone now. Top 4 is the best we can hope for now and even that is going to be a huge ask without a midfield. An absolute sh*tshow.

We should find a way to sue them for £47m and then they would go bankrupt even quicker.

Move this thread. Get this c**t gone from our page, as well as the club lol.

He's had a pretty bad year so far, but i still consider him one of the best in the world, this will be just a minor setback and i'm sure he will come back stronger than ever.

Monaco what goes around, comes around. You better get on the blower to Eghbali 1uickly or you lot are in trouble with daddy uefa lol

And so it begins... Next stage FFP worries and then relegation 😂

Ah hahahaha

Let’s hope Monaco get a knock on the door from UEFA regarding PSR. Might even get Camera at a discount in January

Get f**ked

Probably received a phone call from Eghbali

I worry this could cost us, Strengthened a rival and brought in no replacement, expect to see more of gusto in midfield in the coming months🤢

Balogun deal to Everton is off! What madness! Karma!

You mean when every club will be selling their best players at a premium or not at all? @BordeauxBlue made it perfectly clear. This was a colossal f**k up.

Make no mistake, this deal not getting done is a problem. We needed the depth. I do question what 47M would have bought us - gave me doubts just based on how little quality clubs get for that price nowadays. But, I’d rather have had the chance to see

We're hoping that Reece and Lavia stay fit while Caicedo himself is potentially out for a while. This has put a damper on what has been an exciting season so far. Hope Alonso doesn't sulk about this.

I'd still give out transfer window an 8/10, would have been a 10 if the Camara deal had gone through. Hopefully our midfielders can stay fit and we can still be in the title race come January when we can sign someone.

Ben Chilwell returning to Palace from Chelsea France.

Ah bless BlueCo and Eghbali. They let it be known they could have pulled the plug on the Enzo Deal, just as Monaco did with camara, but did not as they negotiated in good faith. Say what you want about Enzo but they briefed to the 9s they would only let him go if we strengthened our options to not leave Alonso short and yet they did the opposist. So close, but BlueCo cannot help being BlueCo after all.

The board need to learn from this. A - Transfer deadline day deals are too risky B - stop trying to be over friendly with other rival clubs (most of them wouldn't even sell to us let alone loan us a player)

Well we won't have a midfield so more giving up possession and punting the ball to them like Brighton I guess. If Alonso was making a point starting Gusto in midfield in the last game how will he react to our debacle at the end of the window? Perhaps Penders in midfield.

If fit, Caicedo and Lavia wouldn’t concern anyone for now. Problem is Caicedo is unknown, and we’ve never seen a fit Lavia. Any one of the above being fit with Reece also buys us time. Problem is, never fit. That brings us down to Barco and Henderson (also not fit). IF there is any way we can get Caicedo and Lavia playing we’ll be ok. Outside of that, this is a problem. Preserve top 6 thru Xmas, sign two midfielders and make a push for top four. There should be consequences for this. Sporting Directors messed around - there’s a lot riding with the on the pitch success at the club, and they’ve sent us in with one hand hand tied behind our back.

I imagine it is impossible now but it would be rather funny if the Balogun deal did not go through in time.

Internet will be full of memes of him getting ready to slot in that midfield role 😂
