Tell me what do you prefer from a fullback in 1 season: to make 5 BIG mistakes and to contribute to 10-12 goals?

Or to make NO mistakes but contribute to NO goals?

Since the 3 point for victory rule exists, I think it's better to win 5 games and to lose 5, than to draw 10.

Ben Davies might get you to draw 10 (actually he's not rock solid in the defensive either).
But he'll surely not help the team win 5.

You're just trolling now. How many games have you watched him actually play? No he's not Roberto Carlos but he is 23 and exactly the sort of player we should be looking at.

I agree I think Davies would be a welcome addition at Palace and we be lucky to get him.

Anyone who has seen the club struggle this season with conceding so many goals and desperate to start keeping clean sheets and then find fault with a possible full back who won't create enough goals....perhaps we should sign a 15 goal guaranteed striker and hope to outscore the opposition and ignore playing defenders.

There is also the french LB Roussillon who Palace are reportedly trailing, but would take time to get up to speed in the PL, if Spurs are prepared to let him go.

Ben Davies would be a good signing & anyone who watches Wales will know he does not play left back/wing back for us Neil Taylor does, Davies plays in the centre of the defence.

I've watched plenty of his games and was never impressed. He was just there. Nothing special about him. If he didn't have Tottenham written over him, would people rate him the same?

He is currently playing at this very minute for Montpellier which I would imagine means that there is no imminent transfer on the horizon for him...certainly the same could be said for Ben Davies earlier.

Papa S hasn't exactly been amazing since we bought him. I'd even go as far as to say that had he not been injured then LB was still a position that needed to be strengthened. What I'm getting at I suppose is that if we could sign a Prem experienced player I'd prefer that option.

That striker would need quality crosses from the fullbacks. He can't take the ball from his own half and carry it through the goal

He would be the best defender at Palace with the ball at his feet that much was clear.

True more recently but he started at LB and I think (I could be wrong), the difference between LB & CB is not that big (his appearances)

1. Konstantin Rausch
2. Fabio Coentrao
3. Jefferson
4. Luis Ibanez
5. Kieran Gibbs
6. Alberto Moreno
7. Caner Erkin
8. Augustinsson
9. Robbie Brady
10. Ali Adnan
11. Antonelli
12. Plattenhardt
13. Crap, I'm out of ideas

Probably in this order, not necessarily of value, but because of price-quality ratio.
