he really isn't as bad as some people make out. Which striker of any note would consider joining us knowing they'll be "back up"
We've entertained this move in the past, and it smacks of a plan b should plan A not materialise and another brief glimpse that De Boer will probably have no say in who comes in.

£10m is stupid but as a backup striker on the bench that puts himself about and causes havoc and occasionally hits screamers he would be OK at 5m or 6m and sensible wages. Has pace, strength and stamina. Clumsy, far from clinical and apparently that is all we are good for at Palace so fans should like him after a while because we can bitch about how s*** he is but he tries.
Serious option I suspect.

I started this this as for the right money he'd be decent back up and can cover a variety of positions.
Was good pre Everton, was good hull. Awful at Everton but has what? Three games or so?  10m is far too much for me though, even in today's money. Maybe with add ons but my idea signing him was as cover for relatively low cost so as to facilitate signings such as Sakho. If that happens it's a good signing.. for less real money

Was he good at Hull really though? I remember him having maybe 2 okay games and then never hearing of him again?

This is how low we currently are but I would take this. So depressing but at least he has pace and movement. We need two more strikers/players who can play wide in a front three, so could be one. I had hoped for much better but who knows what we are doing striker wise given our complacency in starting the season with one fit senior striker.

Strong, quick, energetic. As a second striker or option from the bench I think he would be a reasonable signing.
Not sure which world class strikers everybody thinks we should get, who would sit on the bench for us and also leave us with enough money yo get sakho and a new gk?

I just saw that Aluko is going to from Fulham to Reading for 7.5m so 10m for this guys seems like a bargain! Useful option off the bench.

We need a back up striker or someone that could play alongside of just off Benteke if circumstances were to change with the manager which could well happen sooner rather than later.
Just go and make an offer for Dwight Gayle who is up for grabs or in a straight swap for Hennessey, knows the club and fans so no problems settling and probably could be bought for around 8m. Also we know what he is capable off if played CORRECTLY (off Benteke is ideal) he would guarantee you 10/12 goals if not more, if played all season. What is there not to like? Why are we wanting to gamble 10/12m on someone like Niasse when we know he has struggled previously at other clubs, get in Gayle as the "nippy" striker we need and when Wickham is back there is like for like cover for Benteke.

Are the same people moaning about this also the ones crying out for us to sign Sakho?
Blowing the majority of our budget on one player has consequences...
