I thought Canos and Murphy played out wide last week?
As part of an 5 man midfield with no striker, as I recall <doh>

A masterstroke by our erstwhile manager - WHY play with width when there's no one in the middle if the wide players can get their crosses in??? <doh>

I know they have changed the loan thing this year, but can we sign out of contract players? If so.... is there an out of contract striker that is worth a punt?

Just found this in the Telegraph, though it doesn't specify which leagues can do this.

"Players out of contract or unattached to any clubs can be recruited outside the transfer window."
Full article here.

If Chamakh was thought of as a serious option before 23:01 yesterday, we'd have let Lafferty go...
 
Not sure on Chamakh, but we are totally desperate.

Just seen Dexter Blackstock has had his contract terminated by mutual consent from Forest.......................We need another Barrel.

But AN keeps trying to fit both him and Wes into the side. Something's got to give when Pritchard is fit again - and the crowd won't be impressed if it's always Wes forced to make way.
Also for certain games we could drop the 4-2-3-1 on occasion and play with one DM allowing more width and creativity further up the pitch?

We did play with a 4-1-4-1 against Brum, Cromer and had Jerome been fit it could have worked. Sadly, it didn't. Marouane Chamakh would give us other options as a striker and as an impact sub. His strength is in link-up play, but he's also an excellent header of the ball if we're chasing a game. Also, unlike McCormack and Rhodes, he wouldn't create problems in the dressing room. For a sign on fee and his wages, he could provide a useful option.

Seven (7) goals in 59 appearances for Palace! :emoticon-0112-wonde
Any hint of an inept board trying to wriggle off that hook they've impaled themselves on?

Canee wee bit a business , I'm guessing he's homeless and we offered him free board and lodging at the Chipp Inn and a fish supper if he scores .

Once prospective players find out about the Chipp Inn, they'll be fighting to come here. I'm told James Maddison's first question at Aberdeen was how are the Chippys up here. I can vouch for them from personal experience!
