I think our main problem is the terrible scouting record for buying from the lower leagues, If you look at Bournemouth, Wilson, King, Fraser and Brooks all bought from the lower leagues over the last 4 years at a cost of under 14million for the lot, and reasonably low wages, we should learn from this. Yep, agree. All of these would walk into our side. Brooks is a class act ...

Dann, Ward, Mcarthur and Hennessey the last players from the lower leagues, must be 4/5 years All four players played in the premier league before signing for Palace, just happens the teams they played for when we recruited were in lower leagues.

This is unfair. He isn't lazy, and exhibits football intelligence in his movement when deployed properly. It's not his fault that as a head on a stick we neither have players able to deliver balls into the box nor a manager willing to set the team up to play to his strengths. I expect a savvy manager will come in for him and we'll end up with egg on our faces . We have to agree to disagree, even Klopp could not make him work and I guess he would be classed as savvy!, as far CB is concerned, his record speaks for him, his has little or no ground skills, has lost any ability to sniff out goals, can't run, can't work defenders to open spaces for others, certainly can't take a penalty kick or pass the ball, what a waste of 27mil!
