INSIDE THE SCRAP FOR MARC GUéHI AS LIVERPOOL’S SUMMER DEAL RESURFACES
From a booked medical to a bidding war, discover the latest on Marc Guéhi’s future as Palace prepares for January offers.
Liverpool isn’t the only one going after Marc Guehi. Clubs all over Europe—and plenty in the Premier League—are lining up for the Crystal Palace captain. It’s turning into a real scrap.
Losing out on Guehi would sting for Liverpool. They actually had a deal in place with Palace last summer—£35 million, everything set up, even a medical booked for deadline day. Then Palace pulled the plug. Manager Oliver Glasner didn’t want to lose his centre-back and made sure Guehi stayed put.
Now things have shifted. Glasner softened his stance, and he’s basically said Palace will sell if someone comes in with a big enough offer this month. Liverpool were happy to wait and try again in the summer, maybe even get Guehi on a free. But with Manchester City circling, they might not have that luxury anymore.
According to Sky Sports News, Guehi hasn’t decided if he wants to leave this month. Liverpool, City, Arsenal, Chelsea, Bayern Munich, Barcelona, and Real Madrid—they’re all still keen. Palace is bracing for another bid from Liverpool after last summer’s deal fell apart. And since Guehi’s contract is up in six months and he’s not planning to sign a new one, Palace could end up accepting less than the original £35 million.
Glasner talked about Guehi’s situation earlier this week. He said, “I think Marc will stay, but if he wants to go and someone offers huge money—especially with only five months left on his contract—then he’ll leave. That’s just how it works at a club like Palace. I’m sure the chairman will want a big fee, but who knows if Marc even wants out?”
Is Glasner worried about losing his captain in January? Not really. “No more than I was in the summer,” he said. “If the offer’s right and Marc wants to leave, he’ll go. That’s football, especially for a club that isn’t at the top of the food chain.”
He seemed a bit surprised by all the fuss. “Honestly, it’s the same situation as last summer. When I see Marc at training, when I talk to him, he’s totally committed. The fans shouldn’t panic. But in football, you never really know what’s next.”
SCATHING VERDICT: ANGE POSTECOGLOU CLAIMS TOTTENHAM ARE "NOT A BIG CLUB" TODAY
Ange Postecoglou claims Tottenham "isn't a big club" in a scathing review of their transfer policy following Thomas Frank's sacking.
Ange Postecoglou didn’t mince words about why Tottenham keep falling short. He says the club’s refusal to really compete with the Premier League’s top spenders holds them back, simple as that.
Postecoglou got the boot last June, right after he delivered a Europa League trophy and ended a 17-year wait for silverware. Now his replacement, Thomas Frank, is out too. Tottenham sit 16th in the league, just five points clear of relegation, and they’ve got league leaders Arsenal up next. Not exactly a fun place to be.
After Frank’s sacking, Postecoglou went on The Overlap’s Stick to Football podcast and pretty much called out Tottenham’s whole approach. “If you look at what they spend and how they structure wages, they’re just not a big club,” he said. He saw it firsthand while trying to sign players; Tottenham just weren’t in the race for the big names.
In his first season, Postecoglou managed to get Tottenham up to fifth. But things went downhill. The next year, even with that Europa League win, they slipped to 17th. He’s convinced the club just doesn’t get what it takes to win, you have to take some risks, and they just won’t.
“I felt like the club was saying, ‘We’re one of the big boys,’ but honestly, they’re not,” he said.
Frank was Tottenham’s fifth full-time manager since Mauricio Pochettino left in 2019, even though Pochettino took them to a Champions League final. Fans are frustrated. Tottenham keep missing out on their transfer targets. Frank wanted Morgan Gibbs-White from Nottingham Forest last summer, but that didn’t happen. Arsenal snatched up Eberechi Eze instead.
Postecoglou, who later had a short, rocky stint at Forest himself, thinks Frank might not have realised what he was getting into. “There’s no guarantee with any manager. They’ve had some world-class people in that job and still no real success. Why is that?” he asked. “What’s the real objective here? Did Thomas even know what he was walking into? Who knows?
136-YEAR CURSE: BURNLEY AVOID MATCHING 1890 RECORD WITH A SENSATIONAL COMEBACK CRYSTAL PALACE 3-2 WIN
Burnley escaped a historic 136-year record! Read how Scott Parker’s men scored three in six minutes to stun Crystal Palace 3-2.
Burnley looked finished. Down 2-0 after just half an hour, with Jørgen Strand Larsen scoring his first goals for Crystal Palace, it pretty much felt like Scott Parker’s team were about to tie their old record: 17 top-flight games without a win, a streak that’s haunted them since 1890. For Burnley fans, the past three months have been brutal. Then, out of nowhere, everything flipped in six wild minutes right before halftime.
Hannibal Mejbri pulled one back. Jaidon Anthony levelled it. Then Jefferson Lerma, of all people, knocked in an own goal. Just like that, Burnley snatched only their second away win since promotion. It keeps their survival hopes alive, barely, but Parker knows they’ll need a few more miracles like this to actually stay up.
For Palace, this was a harsh wake-up call. Their big win over Brighton had just snapped a 12-game winless spell, and for a while, it looked like Oliver Glasner’s side were cruising to only their third home victory of the season, something that would’ve eased their relegation fears. But sloppy defending let Burnley right back in.
Burnley’s luck before kickoff didn’t exactly scream “comeback”. Parker had never won a league game in London as an away manager, and the team bus got stuck in traffic, pushing kick-off back by ten minutes. Palace, for their part, hadn’t lost at home to a promoted side since Sunderland thrashed them 4-0 back in 2017.
When Strand Larsen smashed in a gorgeous ball from Adam Wharton and then dived to head in Lerma’s cross after Kyle Walker messed up, it just seemed like Burnley were doomed.
But then Mejbri gave the visitors a lifeline, beating Dean Henderson with a sharp finish. Suddenly, Burnley were level. There was some debate about whether Lesley Ugochukwu handled the ball before setting up Anthony to score, but nobody could argue with the bottom corner finish – no chance for the keeper.
Then came the third: Bashir Humphreys’ header was stopped by Henderson, but Lerma could only turn the rebound into his own net. Palace trudged off at halftime to boos. Glasner sent them back out early, probably after some choice words in the dressing room.
Even with £35 million man Brennan Johnson on the pitch, Palace couldn’t break down Burnley’s defence. Daichi Kamada missed a decent chance, and Martin Dubravka’s save in stoppage time kept out Ismaïla Sarr. In the end, it was Burnley’s small but loud travelling support celebrating. Somehow, their team had pulled off a rare and badly needed win.
