I looked it up, he played 24 times last season and was a regular starter until he got injured and was out for about three months. So, he played pretty regularly in their team last season. If you come to a fork in the road, take it.

People get annoyed about inflated prices,but we will be doing the same when trying to off load players. Just the way it is. We just got to hope SA knows what he is doing when it comes to incoming players?? Hard working players over so called flare players is definitely needed.

For every David Silva, there are many, MANY Jose Campagna's. We need hit n run kind of guarrantted form players as of right now. We can take chances on further potential gems in 6 months if we don't go down. This, common sense, no? I have spoken.

Originally posted by foxedup Leicester fan in peace. Schlupp is a bit of an enigma, he has the pace and power to cause any team in the league a problem. Unfortunately he doesn't have the brain to turn problems into an end product too often. He's one of those frustrating players that would be brilliant if they were smarter and more composed. I'm not sure where you want to play him, defensively he has the attributes to be a top modern full back. But again he lacks the brain to ever truly grasp where he should be positioned. We dropped him and De Laet from full back and we started to keep clean sheets. But we dropped him from being a winger as he didn't create enough. I think he'd be ideal as a wing back, doing a job at either end of the pitch, but with other people to back him up if he has a brain fart. It's one of them really that playing regularly and coached well with confidence he could turn out to be a bargain at £10m+. Or you might not find the right position for him, he doesn't gain confidence and it's a £10m sub on the bench. Really helpful comment much appreciated. Palace cant afford to spend £10 on a 'bags of ptential' player, who may not deliver: we already have one of those in Townsend!

He can be decent at lb and his pace gets him out of trouble when needed, (he has phenomenal pace) but he is naturally a more of an attacking player. Spent his youth career as a forward and had a decent spell on loan at Brentford where he scored for fun. Would be a very useful addition but I'm not sure he is the answer to our defensive frailties at LB - albeit could cover there. Mind you if we change to a back 3 - LWB would suit him well.

Ask any Leicester fan, they would drive him here with a RR for that bid. A big NO - Brady any given day over Schlupp. Have you guys ever seen him play, seems to be one of those one-tracked fast guys with no football brain...Not what we need at the moment!

Schlupp has played as striker, as left-winger and at left-back. Jack of all trades master of none type ! Nicky Forster took him on loan when he was manager at Brentford a few years ago.

Originally posted by NickinOX I looked it up, he played 24 times last season and was a regular starter until he got injured and was out for about three months. So, he played pretty regularly in their team last season. He was a regular up until the Arsenal game and he got binned off for the rest of the season. Other than the odd cameo, or covering an injury. We'd been conceding too many, and getting mullered by them was the last straw and we dropped both full backs.

If he was named young player of the year it was because there was literally nobody else in the category as the team is generally full of mid 20's players and older. The role he played last season was minimal, not to say he's not done a decent enough job in the seasons prior to that. I think he just needs regular football and a manager that believes in him. Pearson found a way to get him in the team... Ranieri has never really fancied him.

Similar things could be said about Bolasie at 24, I think we miss a bit of raw threat going forward, certainly from our full backs.

Originally posted by Mad4palace Similar things could be said about Bolasie at 24, I think we miss a bit of raw threat going forward, certainly from our full backs. He can be a massive threat, just lacking in end product. He causes chaos as he has no idea what he's going to do next, so the defender won't either. He's great at gaining ground and getting you into threatening areas. His link up play has always been pretty good I thought. He just caves in the second he gets into a position where he needs to think. If he has time to think, the ball will end up about a mile out of the ground. Or he'll just kick it straight at a defender. When he plays on instinct and doesn't have time to think he'll smash one in from 30 yards or put in a worldy cross. That's why I've always wanted him to be given time. The ability is absolutely there, it's almost like he needs calming down and someone to help him with his composure to get the best out of him.

The fact he's probably in the top 5 quickest players in the league obviously helps no end. Gets him into and out of situations someone slower wouldn't be able to.
