Originally posted by Ouzo Dan Henderson isnt £20m better than Johnstone. To throw away that kind of money when the squad is crying out for reinforcements pretty much in every position is insane. We do have a track record of shooting ourselves in the foot with injured players and chancing having one player in a position. See Parish (Paraphrase slightly) the sun not coming up then a week later Benteke gimping himself. Palace are so self destructive at times. Henderson isn't even £1 better than Johnstone. In fact he's nowhere near as good. What a performance today.

Originally posted by Wilbraham413 I'm still holding out hope that Franca isn't Ferguson 2.0. Henderson is clearly a crock though. Baffling signing, and completely not surprising that he blew out his leg again. We'll be out of all cup competitions by the time he's fit again, if he's even able to return this season. No idea what our players do for stretching and fitness, but whatever it is, they should immediately stop and do something else. That would be Fergusinho Responsibility Deficit Disorder is a medical condition. Symptoms include inability to be corrected when wrong, false sense of superiority, desire to share personal info no else cares about, general hubris. It's a medical issue rather than pure arrogance.

Am I misreading the reports or is it true that without Henderson, Edouard, Olise, and Lerma, Palace defeated Man U at Old Trafford? Let's relax and appreciate that with great effort and fine teamwork, we have sufficient talent to play winning football against any team.

Originally posted by BelfastEagle It’s hardly unexpected is it. He was out for the last 3 or 4 months of last season due to injury. I know we needed another keeper as a No 2 but there are plenty of prospects about at not much money. Why on earth did we blow almost our entire budget on this turkey ? We have bought some turkeys before but to spend so much on somebody we didn’t need beggars belief ? Is it all part of the DF master plan ? Looking back over the past few seasons, we have bought in a number of injured players with injury histories. Wickham, Benteke (?) Sako, Olise, Ferguson, Henderson, Franca.......maybe more. Surely this is more than just bad luck. It would appear its some kind of strategy. Makes me wonder if the transfer fees are really accurate, or is there some hidden agenda that we are missing? These latest two, however are really concerning. £20million plus for each of them is flabbergasting. There are a number of posts on here that are rightly questioning our actions. The Henderson situation from everything said does not sound good at all. Franca, well no detail has been given out on his situation, but following the Henderson breakdown, the unknowns of Franca and uncertainty of his problems are compounding this issue. As many of you have said, this is £50million which is the vast majority of a very tight transfer fund that today is looking pretty shocking. The player positions they cover were anything but high priority. You have to ask what is going on?
