Assuming you need two competent players for every position... GK - Fine CM - Flamini, Cabaye RW - Zaha, Townsend ST - Remy, Benteke I make that 5, we can probably afford two so will have to ship out as many of Kelly, Fryers, Mutch and CYL if we want more. Given that there are some interchangeable players in that list - you could say we don't NEED 5, but in an ideal world we would have. Also, I noticed that you have listed Townsend and Sako as competent. That is admirable positivity.
So I manage a Workshop which provides a safe learning environment for blokes struggling with PTSD and other mental health issues. Being a Palace fan isn't listed yet. |

Obviously 8 bids doesn't mean 8 new players. With schlupp through the door, probably seen as a replacement for the departed bolaise. A homesick cabaye and mandada supposed wanting out. Left back is definitely a position that needs strengthening and a commanding midfielder is a must. Would schlupp plus 3 others be enough. Would love hear how other fans feel how many we need? 8 bids? What? Who? When? Where? Source?....name them expand your post please.

It all depends if we let anyone go. Cabaye, Mandanda, Townsend, Mutch, Sako, Flamini These have all been rumoured with moves away. If any of these go, then we could bring in alot more.

Allardyce talked about 1 or 2. I mentioned that I felt we needed 5 and I haven't changed my mind. But what the hell do I know ? Nothing. But Wiki is your friend.

Why is everyone saying the team needs DM? Agree with this. We also have Flamini, who will be a great player if we can get him fit. Ledley is decent as well. LB is the priority for me but we've already gone some way to fixing this as Schlopp can play there. RB would be good too but JW can play that position better than LB. We're quite thin on strikers given Remy's injury record, if Benteke gets injured we're screwed. Midfield is ok IMO and if we do get a new LB then you'd probably count Schlopp as another midfielder.
