I just can't see someone like Praet being signed whilst Pulis is manager. Sessegnon plays in the same position and is our best player on his day and isn't trusted to start.

Sessegnon can't be trusted to stick around when he's not picked. Left St James Park and took a taxi home from Newcastle. Very unprofessional.

I'd be pretty p***ed if I was him though. Some of the garbage we had and he couldn't even make the bench even though he's one of our best and creative players

Sessegnon is one of a squad of players, he should know the score and who picks the team, and he is paid thousands of pounds every week. No excuses.

I know, I never said what he did was right. Just making the point that I'd feel pretty annoyed if I was him too with the garbage we had and he wasn't even making the bench

Sessegnon is not 'the best player at the club on his day', very skilful yes but hasn't got above single figures in goals or assists at WBA. Give me Chrissy Brunt anyday, no silky skills but at least he weighs in with the end product and sweats his bollocks off for the team

Think you need to look up what 'on his day' means. I'll admit it doesn't come around often but that it the point I was originally making, Pulis doesn't trust flair players through the middle - which is why Sess doesn't play and why we won't be buying Praet.

I know what 'on his day' means mate (thanks for the sarcasm though    ) . But I just don't think Sessegnon is the best player at the club, even 'on his day'. Sessegnon played constantly under Irvine and we barely created anything. I used to be a big fan, but in truth Sessegnon is not creative he just gives the illusion he is by doing the odd turn or trick.

I see the Marshall from Cardiff saga getting even more confusing with the font of all knowledge Howells now saying the offer and valuation being miles apart!! Two days ago he was saying, a price was all but agreed.

That however is not the confusing bit.  With a press release yesterday saying Fossy IS on course to be back by October and Marshall being banned for the first three games of the season anyway, would we really by a player just to provide cover for three games? I don't think so, do we need three number 1 keepers? probably not.

So what is going on

By Garbage I presume you mean Gardener, McMannaman, Brunt , Morrison etc. All of whom created more and racked up more goals and assists than Sessegnon.

IMO Marshall will be No.1 until Foster is fully fit, and then will be his main challenge for the GK slot, with Myhill probably leaving on loan

Looks like Sako to Palace then:

Hopefully we still WILL get one of the more 'preferred' wingers we've been chasing..........or will we just end up with what we've got, as a result of penny pinching (again)?

Sessegnon; all tit and glitter.

It's Gardner not Gardener...and are they wingers? Creative and take players on? Excite the fans when they get the ball.... Mcmanaman hardly played so for you to count him is stupid

[BaggyBomber]

You must be easily excited, Dan. Sessegnon generally running up blind alleys and not doing any useful when he releases the ball doesn't excite me. It annoys me.

[devwakey]

Sakho confirmed as a Crystal Palace player...

I'm looking for someone new to get excited about, anyone... preferable not a goalkeeper

[wba_1996]

Irvine played with a number 10, Sessegnon is the best number 10 at this club. Pulis doesn't, hence why Sess doesn't play and why we won't be signing any number 10's whilst Pulis is manager.

That is the point I was making and people are arguing for the sake of arguing.

As for missing out on Sako, we left him on the backburner in the hope of signing a better winger - if we fail to get in Phillips or whoever else Pulis rates as better than Sako then we will look very silly come the end of the window.
