Loan signings


rollercoaster Flag Cornwall 26 Jul 22 4.03pm

We usually pull out a loan signing or two around the end of the transfer window. Anyone got any suggestions for good options for Palace who might realistically be available on loan and who we might, realistically be able to attract?

I don't know much about him or whether he would be a good signing or not but Garner is reportedly interested in going out on loan for more game time. I've seen a lot of people talk about another midfielder. wonder if he could fit the bill?

 

Spiderman Flag Horsham 26 Jul 22 4.16pm

I just wonder if we might go for Gilmour. I know he didn’t have a good time at Norwich but that speaks more about them. When I have seen him play for Chelsea I have been impressed. Funnily enough I thought we might have gone for him ahead of Gallagher, shows what I know!

He did well for Scotland as well.

I would like to see Borja Mayoral from Real Madrid, he wont get in their first eleven, did well at Roma, but Mourinho like a big man up front so Abraham replaced him.

Id be happy to go ahead and buy him. Might not be the same level as CG, but he's a decent player who'd do well for us.

 

Frank1 Flag sevenoaks 26 Jul 22 8.16pm

I'm going to guess Issa Kaboré on loan. As an attacking RB he'd be much better than AWB or our existing options. Also think we need a midfielder who's a monster in the air and has a few goals in him, no idea who that is though

 

ambrose7 Flag Croydon 26 Jul 22 10.19pm

I'd happily have Billy Gilmour in. Crap at Norwich but who wasn't, Gallagher didn't pull up any trees at West Brom and we made it work so, with McArthur's injury issues, why not?

Otherwise I don't really see a need for a loan unless someone were to leave. Potentially a forward if Benteke goes at the last minute?

Otherwise, Pape Sarr (19 year old, CM, on loan at Metz last year) is meant to be alright if they're after him getting more regular games than he would at Spurs. Albeit they'd probably try and give us Winks on loan to get his value up.

I'm really on the fence about Gilmour. Twelve months ago, I'd have rated him Gallagher's equal; I'd have been equally happy to sign either him or Connor. But I thought Gilmour was shocking at Norwich, regardless of whether the team was uniformly poor or not. Connor twelve months earlier at West Brom, a team roughly equivalent to Norwich last year, may not have pulled up trees but he was much, much better at WBA than Gilmour ever was at Norwich. I could probably be persuaded Gilmour is a risk just about worth taking but for me, he didn't tread water last season. He took a major step backwards.

Bring RLC back with the option to buy in 12 months time. He'd be great in our current system. I might be worried about his injury record, but he did manage 40 appearances across all competitions last season and 30 for Fulham the season before.

What we really need is a big CF who is good at jumping for defending corners

Difficult to get excited about loanees. Gallagher was exceptional. Batshuayi in his first iteration (disappointing in his second). Any other successes spring to mind?

good call. Definitely prefer a loan rather than a buy - probably couldn't afford him anyway!

Loftus Cheek and Sakho are the obvious ones. Cameron Jerome and Ayew did alright, Mateta was originally a loan.

Can't see us getting RLC. I think he'll get decent game time at Chelsea. They'll want to be getting rid of Barkley & Gilmour first.

Puncheon was originally on loan as was Sakho and both did well. The former proved a better permanent signing

Gilmour would do just fine

Somebody to cover Mitchell at LB.

 


This operation, will make the 'Charge Of The Light Brigade' seem like a simple military exercise.

Surprised we let Tayo go - as I thought he could do this. But the championship will blood him. Hopefully a first team player next season.

Going further back, 2 cracking loan signings in Ashley Cole and Paul Stewart.

As for a loan signing this season, there were rumours earlier this year about Sanson from Aston Villa. I wonder if they would let him go out on loan (with perhaps option to buy).

Obviously, the club don't feel a need for this. In any event we have the following players who have all played LB for us in the past:
- Schlupp (was a LB at title-winning Leicester before he came to us)
- Ward
- Riedewald
- Ferguson (for a few minutes but is supposed to be flexible across the back line).

I tend to agree with the club that we don't need any extra cover at LB and it was right to send Tayo out on loan to a Championship team. If Tayo performs he'll be a genuine option for our 1st team next season especially if Mitchell continues to improves and is sold for a tidy sum.
