Probably can wait for a good keeper till the summer. But Roy's said and anyone sensible knows you need 3.

Sturridge was available on loan so not an option for us.

I appreciate we've not spent any of the summer budget and Adamou probably was a case of getting him in now instead of in the summer when we need to anyway but, let's hope this keeper situation doesn't turn out to be negligent because it's pure hope it won't rather than management of the situation we're relying on with that issue.

Actually Hennessy's a complete pussy so he's unlikely to be out for too long so maybe we'll be lucky after all.

Yup

I can't believe the idiocy of so many Palace 'fans' and the fact we are told on this site we are lickspittles if we say the club did OK considering it's the January window.

Personally I would be upset if I were a Hammers or Stoke fan but am fairly pleased with what we did. Guata should come in the summer and looks excellent. With luck so will Amadou.

We brought in 3 players, same as almost every other club. They all look decent buys in terms of value and also potentially to hit the ground running. It's a step up of course but that would apply to anyone we can afford to buy.

Just as an FYI, I did not produce that table it was emailed to me.

And I'm sorry but there are so many arguments on here surrounding people 'not knowing what goes on behind the scenes' but to be honest that is nonsense without producing the rhetoric of 'neither do you'

I actually think we have a decent squad given realistic expectations, but to not have any other options up front, apart from a youngster from the Danish league now (admitted I don't know anything of him really) and have two GKs, one who is much loved but too old now and another who might potentially be a reasonable no.2, for more than one window is ridiculous and infuriating. Even Newcastle have brought in a Gk and Slimani!

Transfer windows should not be anything new to those involved and they had plenty of time for risk assessment and to draw up a viable list of potential signings. The fact we have not solved these 2 issues is shambolic and further insulting that the club powers that be have on numerous occasions referred to these issues falsely alluding to a resolution.

It's not good enough at this level and I'm not pessimistic I see us staying up, but that's not a certainty, especially now.

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

It's 13 games, which is just over a third of a season, and you are outlining a doomsday scenario which is incredibly unlikely to happen. This is very different to starting a season with 1 striker.

Employee of the month is a good example of how someone can be both a winner and a loser at the same time.

There are more than 2 keepers in Europe and Brondby couldn't or didn't get a replacement on the last day.

Yes everyone says you need 3 goalies,so hopefully we get a New number one in the Summer.
I’m not privy to the “summer budget” I’ll leave that to Parish.
Anyhow onwards and upwards.
