By Total Football News

Centre-back Guehi’s £20m arrival from Crystal Palace in January was considered a bargain.

But it was his loose pass at Everton late last season which cost City dearly in the title race, drawing that game and losing the impetus to eventual champions Arsenal.

This season has been a struggle for the England defender, culpable for both goals scored by Ipswich last weekend and being picked off by John McGinn

By Total Football News

Palace’s valuation of a player who can leave for nothing next summer will be pivotal.

If Liverpool don’t view Guehi’s price as reasonable, don’t be surprised to see them park their interest for 12 months and look to strike a free-transfer agreement.

But what represents a reasonable price? For a clue, we should look back to last year when Palace rejected multiple offers from Newcastle – the last of which

In isolation, Leicester boss Ruud van Nistelrooy will take some positives from his side’s display at Stamford Bridge.

They were defensively resolute, afforded Chelsea few chances and looked bright on the counter-attack during the first half.

The problem is that, with 10 matches left in the Premier League season, Leicester cannot afford to judge anything in isolation.

Points are the only thing that matter at this stage and they are
