We have not been a TEAM since he left. The fact he got injured long term at Everton is bad news for him. He should have stayed. Benteke has scored goals but I have never been a massive fan. But Yannick on one wing and Wilf on the other was the last time we were real threats and even an ok striker could feed off those two. Totally agree with this. My non palace mates always said Bolasie was a handful on the pitch and as you say strikers like Gayle were scoring from their work. We have lost some of our identity which is only going to get worse if big money singings are made in jan. We need players with fight which other teams seem to have that arent top names but as a team put a shift in. COYP

We actually will have a strong 11 when all fit, Absolutely yes, problem is they aren't going to get picked, for reasons only the manager knows.

Sometimes you get a group of players that dont gel. We have a group like this. They will leave and do well and we will be all scratching our heads. It happens. West Ham went down with Carrick Defoe Cole and Di Canio in their ranks.

We have lost our identity in trying to compete with the bug clubs. We should have been happy just surviving in the PL each season. We used to bring through our youngsters, or sign players from lower leagues or top teams' reserves, and make them into good players. All our big successes in the past were like that - Johnson, Thomas, Wright, Bright, McGoldrick, etc. Now we try and bring in marquee signings who are often only in it for the money. We have rarely if ever done well when we've spent loads on players.
