With the potential signing of fosu Mensah, were gonna have an exciting team next season. It seems de Boer critrea is young and versatile. Also the signing because of their age won't have to be included in the 25 man squad. Exciting times ahead Andy Johnson Magic, He wears a Magic Hat When he Sees the match ball, he says he having that He scores one with left foot, he scores one with his right And When his playing Brighton, He scores all f***ING Night!

I think 3-4 players needed still without a doubt if we wish to be moving away from flirting with relegation and establish ourselves as a mid table-top ten side. He's been a great servant but players like Delaney need to be moved on. He is simply just not good enough anymore. I'm excited about the future with FDB in charge. The first time in a number of years I have been about a Palace manager. I trust the guys judgement and eye for a player implicitly. Don't waste your time with jealousy. Sometimes your ahead, sometimes your behind, the race is long. But in the end it's only with yourself!!

Well hes def got a big chunk of money left, I wonder who hes going to use that for. Theres a reason why hes managed to loan and spend well in other areas, because he wants someone worth a bit I think. either sakho or a forward player.

It is good that we are showing that we do not (in some eyes) not have enough depth. A "lack of depth" means that we call up younger players - Lokilo certainly did himself some good last Saturday.

Squad looks fine to me but if we get a few injuries after the window closes like last season we could be in trouble.

If the young lad from United signs and can play at RWB then I think we have a good, solid first XI. Plus some cover. There does appear to be some players that have come in who can play multiple positions, which means we're perhaps not as stretched as we might look on paper; however, while we may possibly be able to sneak by with only two senior GKs, I am very concerned about having no fit back-up for Tekkers, especially when you consider Zaha and Townsend are the only experienced PL wingers at the club. Then again, I don't want to see us panic buy and end up with another Campbell for three or four years. A foreign loan with an option to buy would be a good solution if available. Options: 2 GKs: WH, Speroni 2/3 RWBs: Ward, Fosu-Mensah,possibly Townsend 6/7 CBs: Tomkins, Dann, Delaney, Riedwald, Kelly, Fosu-Mensah, Luka if needed 2/3 LWBs: PvA, Schlupp, Souare (if he makes it back) 4/5 DMs: Luka, Fosu-Mensah, Loftus-Cheek, Cabaye or Puncheon at a push 4-6 CM/AMs: Cabaye, Puncheon, Loftus-Cheek, McArthur, possibly if stretched Williams, CYL 4-7 LF/RF: Zaha, Townsend, Sako, CYL, possibly Lokilo, Loftus-Cheek, Kai Kai 2 Strikers: Bentenke, Wickham (if and when fit) and possible but unlikely, Ladapo and Keshi
