Fraser Campbell to Leeds United according to footballinsider247.com but it quotes Twitter. We'll see.
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. |

If true, I'd suggest we get someone in before selling him! We currently have 4 strikers on our books - Campbell, Ladapo, Wickham and Appiah - only 2 of which have any kind of experience - Campbell being one of them! Do you see where I'm coming from!

Would be a good move for all involved. Leeds a massive club having a bit of a tough time of late. Campbell would do well there IMO.

Right, I realise I'm probably going to get shot down in flames for this, but... I think we should keep him. He hasn't really done anything to suggest he's going to be a 10+ goals a season striker for us (although he reached a similar number for Cardiff) but I think we should keep him as a 3rd/4th choice striker. He's got a good work ethic so ideal for coming off the bench and chasing lost causes in the last 15 minutes or so, or starting in cup games. We aren't going to be buying a striker in who is happy to do this job, so maybe a case of better the devil you know? This obviously assumes we sign a first team striker/someone to compete with Wickham and that he is happy to play this role for the club. Right, I'm putting my tin hat on now...

His time has to be up. Bring in two strikers then. Benteke and a younger unproven striker from league one or championship. However I quite like Bolasie up front, controversial, I know.

I've only got a van but i'll take him there myself.
I refuse to believe there are that many people out there that can't spell. Too f**king lazy, that's what I think. |

In terms of striker cover, I have no idea if Freddie Ladapo is good enough, but he certainly hasn't looked a million miles worse than Campbell in the States. We've also got Keshi Anderson and Kwesi Appiah knocking around? Fraizer seems a good character, but don't think he will ever make much of an impression at Palace now. He could still establish himself at a club like Leeds, good luck to him if he goes.

I was all for getting rid until I read this. You make a good point.

He's a competent player in the PL and unless we're buying three strikers this window we shouldn't sell.

Was very much in favour of moving him on until we got rid of all of our other strikers. Unless I'm going to wake up tomorrow to the news that we've signed Benteke, Slimani and Bony, we simply can't afford to lose him.
We were somewhere around Barstow, on the edge of the desert, when the drugs began to take hold... |

He'll only move further down the pecking order when Palace bring in another striker. And Freddie Lapado hasn't done too bad, has he?
