Anyone watch football from any of the lower leagues that can think of any decent players with potential we might be able to pinch?

Many who I'd be happy with at Palace.

From Wolverhampton: Cavaleiro (cause Helder Costa and Jota would be too expensive), Doherty.
From Middlesbrough: Assombalonga, Gestede.
From Aston Villa: Grealish, Hourihane.
From Derby: Vydra, Tom Lawrence.
From Leeds: Alioski.
From Sheffield: Gary Hooper, Forestieri+ Sougou who they released on a free.
From Brentford: Lasse Vibe, Sergi Canos.
From Norwich: Josh Murphy, Alex Pritchard.
From Fulham: Rafa Soares, Sessegnon, Sheyi Ojo, Cairney.
From Hull: Abel Hernandez, Grosicki, Bowen, Dicko, Jon Toral.
From Birmingham: Jota.
From Reading: Swift, Mannone.

Not many of these are young with potential. Most would be very expensive

Actually, I think it's a cheaper to buy players who have already been consistent over a few seasons at least. You would know what you'r buying. Buying players who are only young and with potential means they've only started to rise this season and their clubs would surely ask for gazzillions for them. However, it's very risky, they need a longer period to show what they truly are. Otherwise, you could end up paying 40+ million for a player like Renato Sanches, who's pretty much just a defensive midfielder who was painted as an attacking one at the Euros. Kind of like RLC is painted now

...and how many of these would get in our first team?

For me...of the list above i'd only suggest that Sessegnon would...Grealish would disappear up his arse in the bright lights of london, and to suggest that Vydra, Hooper and Gestede would be worth going for is ridiculous

How much playing time did Vydra, Hooper and Gestede in the Premier League and what have they done with it?
With the slight exception of Gestede (who comes close), the others did better than Benteke you know

Cole at Fleetwood is the son of Andy Cole and came through the Man C academy.Terrific pace and can play on either wing.

Bell is a left-back signed on a Free from Birmingham.

Fosu was signed by Charlton from Reading.He is a very direct winger who has a few tricks up his sleeve and excites fans.
