But which "kids" would you give an opportunity to?

If pressed I'd go for Rak-Sakyi as the best candidate at the moment.

Why? As Midlands Eagle loves to point out, it's only £1m ish per place. What difference is that going to make? Wages for 3 months?

If I was Palace's Bank Manager, given that my customer has just announced a £54m hit due to Covid, I would be expecting them to generate as much incoming funds as possible.

So start Mateta in each remaining game?

When he joined us on loan there was an agreement to buy after 15 starts. I could be wrong but assume this means part of starting lineup not appearances including those as a sub. For this reason I think he will not start till next season but may come on as a sub. We need 3 strikers in the squad for next year Mateta plus 2 more. Bats is going back to Chelsea, We will buy 1 my guess is Benteke will stay if we can agree wages

Cahill will be nearly 36 at the start of next season.


He has been a wonderful servant to Palace and i love him.

But , going forward, i do not trust his long-term health & fitness for a whole season.

We urgently need to find a 24 year old that can take his place.

We'll have Ayew, Mateta and Benteke. If Benteke leaves we might be in for a striker but we also have Wilf. In that respect our defence and midfield seem more of a priority than up front. I'm struggling to think who will be on the right wing? Perhaps Townsend will renew but we need someone there. I'm presuming Banks will play next season as left winger in the odd game. Still no one on the right.

we urgently need to plan for next season.

The first game in August will be brutal & unforgiving. Norwich & other teams coming up will be tough & unfamiliar.

and if the other big clubs do not like our commitment to winning games this month ?

f...ck them.

We played Norwich last season, same as Watford, so not unfamiliar. If B'mouth win play-offs, we played them as well last season.

Surely we need to try and win every remaining game for the sake of probity if nothing else.

i fear watford(spit!) and norwich will both be a lot better than their last term.

 


Kids,tired of being bothered by your pesky parents?
Then leave home, get a job & pay your own bills, while you still know everything.

Roy and the team he selects will certainly be trying to win every game in the run in.

Same as every previous game we've played. Can't believe they never try to win even if it doesn't look that way sometimes.

The manager has made it quite clear he won't field players just for the sake of giving them a game.

A ton of our players are either ancient or 'out of contract'. Not got much future with us.

The most important forthcoming game on our horizon will be in mid August. And they come thick and fast thereafter....not much time for tinkering with formations or the squad.
