If we got the player that I saw in Ligue 1 then we have a very good player and fit for how we want to play indeed

Edited by The Sash (16 Jan 2015 10.31am)

i am sorry to disagree with you on this player but as like you i want the best for palace its not even the amount of money we would spend ,its the fact i have watched him play 4 times this season and do not think he is very good, and who do i think we
should sign i do not know ,but signing somebody for the sake of it does seem a tad bit silly to me

You have been to see Swansea and watched every minute of those 4 games ???

no i have not been to swansea to see him play. but i have watched him play on live stream 4 times this season when palace have not been playing i watched him play against west ham last week ,i do admit he was a bit better than before when i watched him play but previous he was really poor ,i have family in south wales who are swans supporters and my cousin who watches them all the time does not rate him either and the feeling is they want to sell him and make a quick profit on him ,they are very cute in the transfer market and for a small club they have been very clever in buying and selling ,,,

So that's a no then

I'm tending to agree that we don't need to spend loads on the likes of Gomis. Ideally another forward would be good but the lads under Super Al are starting to hit the net. The main priority and I'd spend more for personally, is a quality Left Back.

Quote Y Ddraig Goch at 16 Jan 2015 5.41pm Last year I compared us moving from shopping in Lidl to now shopping in Sainsburys. We have now moved from shopping in Sainsburys to shopping in M&S. Most if us aren't used to that so paying what is in effect a lot of money for us (though not in PL terms), feels alien. We need to buy better players than we have now without getting rid of the ethos that has served us so well over the past few seasons. A few favourites probably need to go or become squad players, it will take some adjusting to Next season, Waitrose!

Gomis has proper laid into swansea and Gary Monk in particular on French tv. Obviously he is forcing a move. Where to is another matter! Can't see him playing for swansea again mind, he's hammered them tonight. So much so I am not sure his character would suit our club. Very unprofessional. laddo "People say, live fast, die young.
