I would rather try to recoup the money on Van Aanholt and keep Rieldwald/Schlupp for left back.

There is something attitude wise I dont like about Van Aanholt, he looks like he is very arrogant, add to that he hasnt played that great for us and I prefere Schlupp.

Don't judge the guy on one game. He was probably nervous as he'll and found himself out of his depth. Give him some time

A Dutch friend of mine asked why we signed him at the time?
He said that He wasn't nearly the best defender in Holland & was slow.
He also added that Ajax couldn't believe how much money we were prepared to pay for him!

I was just on holiday in Holland. I was watching a football magazine show with my wife's uncle and they were discussing why FDB signed Riedewald. It translated that none of the panel could understand why FDB would go for the player when there were much better options in the Erevidise

Where did you get £13m from?

Yeah it was under 8m.

Will we ever see him play again? If De Boer goes then I don't see it....miles off being ready.

Or 2017's Zeki Fryers.

£8m is a lot of money. You get in the mindset that these massive transactions are just Monopoly money, but somebody, somewhere is paying for them with the real stuff. If de Boer does leave early, chances are his replacement won't want this player. Then what? Back to Holland on the cheap for half of what was paid at best? Who makes up the several millions lost? How much longer can a club like ours keep making potential big mistakes like this and losing millions because of it? There must be some payback point eventually - one that will be very hard for a club like Palace to recover from.

Decent shout

This. He's a good player

Yes.

Plus the fact Soure is nearing fitness, who may not be the best defensively I think he's better than PVA.

Van Aanholt is simply shocking defensively. Schlupp provides a far more solid option and with Souare in frame too, we have enough there. Money received could be reinvested elsewhere....if we can find someone who would take him..

I'd happily sell PvA and keep souare and Schlupp, with Riedewald also an option there. The trouble is - no one will probably pay what we did for PvA.

This

I have to agree. He maybe better in a flat back 4, yet BFS preferred Shlupp in that position last season, which says a lot.

Why would we sell a left back? If one gets injured...

Souare won't be match fit for a long long time

He's playing for the U23s today, so maybe not too far away.
