I like what I've heard about Mandanda, but have we considered that Crystal Palace guaranteed him the No.1 spot and that maybe Koeman wasn't willing to make that promise?
Now you stop immediately with such logic, it's all rash in here.

Fulham may be forced to reconsider their asking price for Ross McCormack as his £12million escape clause expires on Friday.
Manager Slavisa Jokanovic is eager to rebuild his squad to give them a fighting chance of promotion. However, key to that is the future of top goalscorer McCormack.
Jokanovic needs funds to bring in other players he wants and sacrificing McCormack can allow him to strengthen the squad elsewhere.
However, they may struggle to strike a deal for the 29-year-old for their desired £12m.

Newcastle, Aston Villa, Norwich City, Hull City and Sheffield Wednesday all have an interest in McCormack but have been deterred by the clause figure so far. That lapses after July 1 which will open the door for them to negotiate and try to sign the Scotland international for a lesser figure.
Fulham had wanted Dwight Gayle, who is signing for Newcastle for £10m, and Serbia international midfielder Radosav Petrovic from Kiev, who has since signed for Sporting Lisbon.
They have already lost Moussa Dembele to Celtic for just £450,000 with his former club Paris Saint- Germain also taking a cut of the fee.
McCormack scored 23 goals last season, despite missing part of the campaign following the collapse of his move to Middlesbrough, and remains one of the most prolific strikers in the division.

Juventus have joined Real Madrid by expressing interest in Leicester City midfielder N'Golo Kante.

Leicester have already lined up Nampalys Mendy from Nice, are talking to Norwich over Robbie Brady and have posted an interest in Juventus midfielder Mario Lemina too.
Juventus, meanwhile, are continuing to stress that Paul Pogba is not for sale but Manchester United and Madrid remain keen to pursue a deal for the France international.

Tottenham target Vincent Janssen has expressed frustration with his club AZ Alkmaar for rejecting the Premier League side's £15million bid.
Wolfsburg have also made an approach for the 21-year-old who held talks with Tottenham in London after Alkmaar gave permission.
'I have expressed my choice to the club. Tottenham Hotspur have made a high bid in my eyes,' Janssen told Dutch television on his first day of pre-season training with AZ. 'At the moment I’m still a bit disappointed with AZ. I’m disappointed with how they behaved. I would like to make the move.'
Janssen has three years remaining on his contract having joined from Almere City for £300,00 last summer. He added: 'I indicated I would take the next step and want to get away from the club. They know and are aware of it. It’s a shame, I would have wished that it would go a little faster. Sure it’s fine to train again. AZ is a fantastic club but I want to make that next step for my development. Ultimately I hope to shake people’s hand here and walk out of the door on good terms.
'This is frustrating.'

Manchester City are not pursuing a deal for Thiago Alcantara. The Spain international followed Pep Guardiola from Barcelona to Bayern Munich and has been linked with a move to Manchester in recent weeks. However, the 25-year-old midfielder is not on Guardiola's immediate wishlist.
City, meanwhile, have sold defender Florian Lejeune to Eibar in Spain for £1.25m. City only signed Lejeune from Girona for around £215,000 a year ago, loaned him back, and have now sold him for a profit of around £1m.

Everton make £6.6million approach for Euro 2016 winger
EVE
Grosicki could become the first major signing of the Ronald Koeman era
Grosicki is currently in contention to start for Poland in their Euro 2016 quarter-final clash with Portugal tonight (8pm).
The 28-year-old has 43 caps to his name and started on the left wing in their penalty shoot-out win over Switzerland in the last 16.
His performances have clearly impressed and according to French newspaper Ouest-France, Everton have submitted a bid of £6.6million for the player.
However, Stade Rennais are reportedly holding out for a fee closer to £8.25m.
Grosicki joined the Ligue 1 outfit in January 2014 having spent three years playing for Turkish side Sivasspor.
He had already broken into the Poland set-up but featured only once for the side when they hosted Euro 2012.
