Think Palace might want to line up a replacement before selling but don't think they will drag it out beyond that they won't want City to go for a second target and miss a fee for a player certain to leave in the summer.
I guess every time a player represents his country, trains or plays in other matches it is a risk.
Realistically it's probably small. There's probably a quid pro quo for us in how the fee is paid in installments or something if we've agreed to it.
Bit of a thread diversion but don't think we will need or turnover quite as many as suggested.
Providing we get Rodri back to full fitness we have him Nico Reijnders Foden and Cherki a bit further forward. Possibility of Nypan/Echeveria/ Mukassa .
I suspect we will only get one more midfielder...
For him there are plusses and minuses in either situation looking at it the other way the plus side of signing for us.

I would classify Guehi as being an opportunistic buy rather than a panic buy. The fact that this thread was 60 pages long before the injury crisis shows that he is a defender that many think is worthy of serious consideration and I would agree.
Don't want a panic buy but would be very happy...

He did play NO'R last season and S-P
He played Foden as a left back once when young I seem to remember. He played Rico as a Right back when young.
He didn't start NO'R because we'd just...
Depends what you mean by serious, no tibial fracture is completely trivial, but there are a lot of different places where it can break and degrees of severity.
I haven't seen the video but at the match it looked like he was bothered by his ankle so it may be a medial malleolus which could be...
Don't watch much of the post match stuff unless they are about to interview a manager but Less OTT always seems decent and pro City if not particularly insightful.
If you stick to Europe you have a maximum squad size of 17 plus trainees which is inadequate.
You also automatically lose out on the likes of Stones and Walker.
