We have won games without him. Yes he’s a very important player but olise and eze can score goals if given the roles. We have youth strikers who with opportunities could possibly step up. This isn’t my green light for him to leave but the gloom if he does is not merited imho fwiw. Get me coat now

Cheers D, can you get the big one it’s pissing down

We survived without him when he was at manure and when he was injured. He scores because the team is moulded to give him that role. If he goes the team will need to adapt.

We got a lot of history with Wilf. He said he loves Palace. 4 years and we should be good. He’s a super fit athlete and strong. He’ll become a super legend in the premier.
He’s already that with us. Rock and roll party time if he signs. Here is hoping.

Last week there were stories of him having meetings with CFC, if they were true it might be interesting to know who he was talking to, are they still there & with the change in management are those conversations still relevant ?

I imagine the club will want an answer one way or the other fairly early so they can plan for the future. If he's staying great, if not they can potentially look at bringing someone in in January to begin the transition.

If he really is determined to try and win trophies (he's said in the past he wants something to show his kids) then he will go as the best we can hope for is the outside chance of winning a domestic cup. The investment this summer shows we are long way off the competition however good our coaching team may be. However, if he decides he's happy and settled with us then I hope he signs a deal quickly and we can move on. I really hope his performance at Newcastle wasn't a sign of him being frustrated at not moving this summer as we need him to be at his best.
