I wouldn’t pay too much attention to one game tbh.

Player Valuation: £35m
We are an injury away in that front 3 from seeing Walcott or Iwobi.
I would probably rate our depth in this area worse than CB.

And at CB we are an injury away from playing Walcott or Iwobi at CB.
You see the difference?
I’ve seen a couple of rumours elsewhere from people who seem to have links to credible sources.
effectively, zaha wanted arsenal. There was no chance of that. He wanted us but it didn’t happen late last year (but it was very close). He still wants us. His agent is working hard to get him a move away from palace. Moshiri really wants him. I don’t think the management team are pushing for it but it seems like a bit of a ‘gift’ from the owner. It’s expected that we will move for him late on, if we go for him.
it might happen, it might not. But I think there is a decent chance it might. The talk isn’t completely unwarranted.

Yes - Holgate and Braithwaite are temporary absences.
Loan move for CB providing we get some more quality up top.

Let me rephrase that then depth in quality.
Ignoring Bernard and Gordon like. Who I think are ahead of both.
Chris O'Connor
Player Valuation: £35m
Not even on the bench is telling tbh, the signals haven't been good for him for some time
You say temporary but both are likely to be out close to 2 months.
Im not saying we don't need attacking options, but we currently have 2 fit CBs in the whole squad, 1 of which who normally gets injured dancing.
The CB area for me is 100% the most pressing.
Would love to see Bernie at CB.
Tomori wasn’t on the bench last week.
His header to clear in the 6 yard box mid week was spot on.
I said the other day that depth wise we lack quality all over the pitch.
Will say one thing for the Zaha situation. Any young talented footballer should be thinking twice about joining Palace.
Their niche and way forward should be as a stepping stone club. Like Eze for example. Players with big potential who they could profit from.
If they start putting their foot down on contracts and locking their players in to staying they'll be in for a world of hurt over the long term.
Its easy to say Zaha was stupid for signing that contract, but I think there was an understanding there that he'd give them one, maybe two more seasons, and then let him go, and Palace have backtracked on it.
To his credit, he hasn't downed tools. Loads would have.
