I'd rather take the risk on this guy rather than signing Adebayor, Bendtner or Borini. Other clubs seem to take risks with players that have never played in the Prem. Why not us??
Don't waste your time with jealousy. Sometimes your ahead, sometimes your behind, the race is long. But in the end it's only with yourself!! |

Why can't we take a punt on an Alli? Or even try our own youngsters?

A question of what we need and how much we are prepared to spend. Austin was a consistent championship scorer over a period of time, no on knew if he could do it in the premiership until he got there. I believe Rhodes is very similar, has scored goals at championship level for a long period. More importantly, his movement in the box, anticipation etc, is very similar to Austin, and as a box type striker there is every chance he could prove a good buy for a team taking a chance.

But we are Palace. Two youngsters starting - allow for one injury - we can substitute them at 60 minutes, and replace an injured player.

I think he would be a good signing. I know that he plays in a lower league, but he knows where the net is and with him and wickham up front, we could have a very formidable strike partnership on our hands. Would rather him then a 32 year old that hasn't played for ages.

Start playing two up front at home and give Hayle his real chance Decent suggestion, wonder how he'd link up with wickham. Worth trying!
Bring back Brolin |
