Was underwhelmed with Batman, last day hat trick saved his stats, luxury player who doesn't want to challenge and runs around even less than Benteke. Happy to be proved wrong. Will need the change of formation that Eze was talking about, Batshuayi will need some through balls/crosses. As you say he doesn’t chase about or even challenge in the air. Ayew first choice starter for me , if Batshuayi shows the same level of effort, we will do well.

I’m thrilled if true. Much better then other options Up top we currently have and have been linked to as I’ve seen it. It’s all well and good getting younger players in but I don’t think prospects are going to change much for us this season. Batshuayi hasn’t been regularly selected for Belgium because he’s a mug and he’s hardly ancient. Thought Gallagher would have been interesting at best, saw him play a few times last season and looked a decent championship player.. I know who I’d rather have for the next year. Another winger and CB would do nicely too
Now Zaha's got a bit of green grass ahead of him here... and finds Ambrose... not a bad effort!!!! |

Doubt if he was our first choice as Gallagher wouldn't have had a medical if we were always in for him Year loan followed by 20m fee? What if we are relegated. Is it an option or done deal. Are we expected to match the wages he is on at Chelski? Risky deal if you ask me

been saying for a while...if we want to improve up top we need to replace ayew as hes not that good as a PL striker. michi is an improvement on him and with wilf & eze either side will thrive. hope this happens, even if it is only a loan as it would improve us massively.

Its a 12 month loan with a £20m deal for the following season Chelsea have helped Palace out as we get striker that we wanted now but Chelsea extend his contract so they still get the fee next season as Palace could not do this under the current budget due to FFP unless Zaha got sold which is looking very unlikely. Fantastic business alround for Palace turning out to be a great window. Thanks for the detail on that Dazza.

So I guess Gallagher wasn't a done deal then ? Just asking ... Probably was but a striker is more important and if we have done this deal for Bats, fair play. Things change all the time in the transfer market, think the sly dig was uncalled for imo
