Nope. Guehi has expressed several times that he’d be happy to see out his contract. It was up to Liverpool to get the deal done and not try and wait to last minute to squeeze out a lower fee just because he had one year left.

They knew coming into the summer that he wasn't going to sign a new deal and that Liverpool actually were in discussion for a deal for this summer since June. It was up to CP to decide what they wanted to do and source a replacement much earlier. Not wait till deadline day. Get the facts right mate

It’s up to palace to do what they want to do. Guehi been 100% clear: he won’t go on strike & more than happy to see out contract. If Liverpool can’t get deal done that’s fine. Maybe they’ll get him for free or cheap in January. Price offered by Pool means it might make sense to hold Guehi for year.

As I said before Liverpool low balled offer so badly that if Palace have a really good year with Guehi in PL & conf-leave it might actually not be such a bad move simply to hold on to Guehi for year or till mid Jan. I mean they might even be able to sell him to Madrid come January.

This new narrative that Liverpool came out of the blue with interest in the player and submitted a deadline day bid leaving CP with no time to source a replacement, some Olympics gold medal level mental gymnastics.

Literally no one is saying this. Palace & Liverpool had early talks months ago. Exactly as with their Isak dealings Liverpool made a low bid then wanted Guehi to create a stink to get move. Guehi didn’t. Liverpool then waited late to try & force Palace’s hand. It all came in late - too late.

If you're actually following the discourse, the CP narrative is exactly this. Liverpool came in too late and we couldn't source a replacement. And again, for a player in their last year of the contract who was also open to leaving this summer, you don't expect a club to pay 50mil. That's insane.

Nope. Literally every Palace fan knows there were talks months ago - exactly as with Newcastle. With Newcastle they bunged on an extra 20million just in time. With Guehi they didn’t. In any case if CP are top 10 & still in conf league come January it’ll probably have been worth holding Guehi.

Oh and btw was it insane for Liverpool to get £ 7 million for letting TAA go to Real Madrid a few weeks early? Palace don’t exist to serve Liverpool’s transfer schedule. If 50 million is what palace quoted then that was the price.
