This post has been merged from a topic called 'Should we take the gamble?' by Moose I really believe we should....and spend ten million or whatever it takes to get Jordan Rhodes. The player certainly appears to have the ability to play at this level and would have a good re-sale value should the worst happen. He would, in my opinion, be a far better investment both in terms of recouping our outlay if necessary and, more importantly, as a genuine goal scorer much better than many of the other strikers we have been linked with. I am not advocating a spend, spend, spend philosophy rather suggesting a worthwhile purchase. Better to spend ten million with a good return expected (in terms of both goals and re-sale) than, say, three million on a player who will not score as regularly and be worth nothing in a year or so's time.

This post has been merged from a topic called 'Should we take the gamble?' by Moose Not sure we could afford him but if we are prepared to spend then he's the sort of player i'd like to see at Palace.

This post has been merged from a topic called 'Should we take the gamble?' by Moose I tend to agree. I think this chap could keep us up. I think it's worth an £8m bid. As you say, it's an investment. We also need a goal scoring midfielder. Him and Ledley and we'd be looking good IMO.

This post has been merged from a topic called 'Should we take the gamble?' by Moose Not going to spend 10m on one player, that money could get us 2/3 decent players which would probably help more. I like Rhodes but can't see us affording him or him wanting to come to us.
The ups and downs of Palace have left me older than my years |

Him and Ledley and we'd be looking good IMO. Blackburn bought him for about this amount. We would have to bid far higher and I see an all mighty scrap for his signature with other teams at the bottom end of the EPL. Have to be careful that we don't end up chasing rainbows like the summer, leaving our business last gasp which may well happen with Rhodes and then clutching at straws at the death when the deal falls through.

Many clubs were supposed I be in for him in the summer. Did any actually make a bid? I think you've not got much to lose putting once in for £8m. If not accepted move on. If Palace harbour any interest they should make early contact. No messing around.
