    He's on £21,000 a week, that's why Palace are selling him.

    yeh fair point mate, Don't think that we would get Sharp tho to be honest, Bechio (SP) would be a good shout as well. it will also add to our multi International team

    Manucho Goncalves on loan from Man Utd. Fergie has high hopes for him, big, strong, quick n can score apparently.

    We could have Anelka and Owen up front in this team and they'd probably struggle.

    For all the flamboyance of our midfield with Leon and Da Silva in there, the quality of crosses into the box and the penetration of our passing to the strikers in the final third just isn't quite there. When strikers do make runs they are caught offside because the pass isn't timed right. Odejayi often makes chances (and misses chances) for himself. I just don't think it's all down to the strikers. </p>

    We miss on average I would say 2 sitters a game. Against Reading Oddy missed 2 int last 10 mins. A decent strike pair and we'd be top 8.

    Well, Cureton is a proven goalscorer at this level. But if he doesn't score (m)any for us, will it be his fault? </p>

    I think if a proven goalscorer doesn't get many, you've got to take a closer look at the way we play. If he gets a bagful, then I stand corrected, all we needed was a player who could put the ball in the back of the net. </p>

    Given that Simons had months and a number of attempts to fix the problem

    is anyone even slightly hopeful that he can get it right this time

    How many strikers do we want?

    Will 10 be enough? How about 15? Will 20 fit the bill?
