All depends what we do with Mateta really.

But if we held on to Mateta he can be the plan B, and I'd be happy to back Eduoard in the CF position.

Wilf and Ayew can also play in the CF position if needed. Personally I'd rather have a more mobile front line.

In the background I'd be talking to Chelsea about the young striker out on loan at Southampton, see if they could be convinced to let him go.

Do you not think three players, four if you include Wilf is not enough?

“That’s a joke son, I say, that’s a joke.” “Nice boy, but he’s sharp as a throw pillow.” “He’s so dumb he thinks a Mexican border pays rent” “ “Son… I say, son, some people are so narrow minded they can look through a keyhole with both eyes.”__ Forhorn Leghorn

I don't. Mainly because I'm still unconvinced by Mateta, Ayew has lost his way in front of goal and Wilf's not an out and out striker.

And as I said, you have to factor in injuries and suspensions.

From what can be gathered in the media, PV would want a replacement lined up before sanctioning either Benteke or Mateta leaving in this window.

Old, Ungifted and White

Yeah, Broja. Big lad, decent touch, can finish and is still only 20.

Benteke is going nowhere. Roy liked him, SP likes him and PV likes him, more to the point he is under contract and does not want to go and live in Burnley where we will be the only black face in an all white team and may be subject to racist abuse especially if he keeps missing sitters.

I think Tekkers is really happy at Palace sitting on his arse for a mere £6 million!
