    I like him too. Not sure if Palace would want to sell him though. I'd rather have Bolasie mind.

    Bolasie is exactly what we need. A strong quick skillful winger who can get the ball in the box and score goals. We coukd never afford him but we need to find a player like that.

    He'd be pricey but exactly what we need.

    He's only about 28 I believe, he'd be a very sound signing but if I was him I'd want to stay at Palace and see what they can do next year. We could really do with someone like him to link with PVA, and provide a threat from set pieces seeing as Larsson has apparently given up free kick practice.

    Must admit to having to Wiki Bolasie and surprised he was acquired from the lower divisions, on form at the minute, but will it last. Fits into Palace system so maybe good for them.

    Aye he's going into his prime, this will be his most expensive transfer if he moves in the Summer. We may be priced out of a move. Still a left foot and a right foot freekick specialist standing over the ball sounds appalling doesn't it. I'd make him and larsson bet each other on who'd get the most in the season. :p

    Average fish in a below average pond before anyone jumps on the "their above us so how can you call them below average" boat CP and any of their fans would kill to be Sunderland historically and size wise.....in all areas

    So for me no I see him is the same league as Jerome Thomas

    Our history is better but their team has been better than ours for the past two seasons.

    If our team matched our fans or our clubs true potential we'd be Barcelona. If CP matched their true potential they would be Crystal Palace

    Palace are clearly a much better outfit than we are imo, league position is irreverent. We're one of the most imbalanced brick-a-brack squads in the league.

    Well we wouldn't be Barcelona, the mags have a bigger following than we do and several others. We would, however, be in the europa league and challenging for the champions league.

    But to do that we need to sign some good players. Like some of those at Palace.

    There are lots of available players out there who would improve our midfield and I am sure we will be looking hard at the situation if we stay up. Lets face it we have to..

    Aye, but they are not S American or their name does not end in a vowel.
