Chelsea are keen but we really want to see Marc Cucurella playing for Pep Guardiola. Chelsea can have Frenkie De Jong, just for the giggles...

The Eagles boss is keen for his defence to be comfortable in different shapes, and he wants Palace to be on the front foot. The only obvious solution is a return to Palace, where he made his name, at home in the Eagles’ defence. It might be United, who may have to take a hit to get the 37-year-old distraction away from Ten Hag while he begins his rebuild in earnest. After a bright start to his United career, when slide tackles were still a novelty down Old Trafford’s right flank, Wan-Bissaka’s prospects have nose-dived. It’s not Wan-Bissaka’s fault he was promoted way above the level his talent merits. Just not on paying De Jong or his team-mates the deferred wages they are owed. He’s only been back a week, but already he must be making Ten Hag’s t*ts itch. “He’s the player who supplies the team-mates who give the assists or who can score goals from their position,” said Ten Hag when De Jong was being utilised as a no.10 at Barcelona. Otherwise there is a very real prospect of McFred living to fight another season. If for no other reason so that United can have no excuses and we can see how good both De Jong and Ten Hag are when they have everything in place. Defensively, he made the fourth-highest number of tackles in the league, and offensively, he flew forward, never at anything less than warp speed. Doubtless he’ll be brilliant again and the Seagulls will enjoy another fine season.
