Would love this player at Palace! I can see us selling Gayle and buying him!

Agree that this guy looks good. Would feel a lot more confident having him on the bench with Gayle. We aren't a club that can afford a finished article, but we are one that can buy a potential top class player and make them one? This guy fits the bill? Still think Wickham is our No 1 with those two challenging him for a place? The two we should be offloading are Chamack and Cambell in my opinion? Our present problems are making people feel it's a striker problem. I believe it's those behind them that have under performed lately and of course Bolasie being out?

Let me say from the outset that I haven't seen Dembele play but I had heard some good things about the lad. Last week I was talking to a Fulham supporter who goes regularly and he wasn't complimentary at all about the player. He says he can't hold the ball up etc etc.This chap knows his football and offered a different view on the player ! But I suppose it is not unusual to have polarised opinions about players !

We have Wickham to hold the ball, so potential for a good pairing.

Well, we have Gayle who I think could play off of a target man.....so far there has been no indication that Pardew would change tactically...

AP was utilising bolasie off of wickham in his last few games and I've no doubt if Gayle was now fit that'd be the first thing he'd do. As what we've got now is definitely not working!!

I saw an injury table the other day and we were around the middle. We might consider us unlucky in that department but if we were in Bournemouths shoes with long term injuries we would really be in trouble.

I saw this guy play recently and he is 'the real deal.' A great investment. Always a risk when someone hasn't played at top level, but he can play with both feet, head the ball powerfully and he is fast.
