FdB wants us to play without posing an attacking threat and plating up goals for the opposition at the back and Steve Parish has no desire to spend any money whatsoever, Sakho doesn't fit these mentalities

Now Zaha's got a bit of green grass ahead of him here... and finds Ambrose... not a bad effort!!!!

Which do you think is more likely?
a) The Daily Mail have genuine information on Frank's thinking.
b) Someone's gone 'Why haven't Palace signed Sakho? He was really good for them. New manager probably doesn't fancy him. Yeah, I'll write that.'

I agree that we could do with strengthening other positions.
Benteke has no competition and when Wilf is out we have a real problem plus the other obvious ones

just continue playing Dann up front then.

According to the Liverpool website Sakho "can play both centrally and at left back - posseses outstanding pace and aerial power and is extremely comfortable with carrying the ball out to prompt attacks" in other words the perfect man to have at the centre or left side of a 3 man defence. He will be a Palace player by the end of the week surely even if it's just another loan deal.

I don't think it's simply a case of his doest rate hon or wouldn't suit what he has planned. If you hear the townsend rumours it is simple. We do not have the money.
