We've somehow ended up with Crystal Palaces 2 back up strikers 🤣 #realitycheck

Imagine getting back to the Premier League and deciding at the end of the window all you need for firepower is 37 year old Vardy and Jordan Ayew. Wow.

We've been a complete mess with CF's since Vardy/Nugent. Ulloa served a purpose but we're an absolute shambles. Just cannot get anything right in that department. Shocking.

Think we're all waiting on the same thing now. Bilal confirmed and a late failed bid for a striker!

I think we position ourselves to these players as "come here, develop and you'll get your big move in time" It's no bad thing, shame we aren't a proposition to stick around with but we simply haven't got the means to compete. At his age/stage in progress we are a sound option

Same side from us I'd imagine with Skipp on bench and possibly Ayew if done in time

Realistically it shows how far we have fallen as a club. Scary really.

Smacks of a sensible free transfer, nothing more. Will help plug gaps and the occasional brilliance. The level we should be aiming for off the bench.

Silence from the club. Could manage expectations far greater by offering some transparency. Seems so many hopes being dashed at present and the silence is deafening

We've had our time in the sun and some time that was but feels like we're crawling back in to oblivion again. Cycles, it happens and if you asked Bournemouth fans 5+ years ago if they would be spending £40m plus on a Brazilian striker they'd have laughed their socks off. Problem for KP is what's left in it for them?

If this is on top of Hzlocek and Zaha or anyone please for that matter then great. He's instantly better than all 3 strikers on books currently. So if we add to this then defo a positive.

Not adding to the negativity needlessly but sense a comfortable away win by 2-3 goals and a toxic atmosphere. Wish that wasn't the case but feels like a storm brewing down there. Cooper sadly will get the brunt of it.

Can't see where or how they win a football game this season.

Because he's a very average footballer enjoying an above average salary.

It's a mess. Sums up where Club is nowadays. Not Coopers fault per say but this was always gonna be a tough act to follow and 2 contrasting styles. Honestly have no particular interest in season ahead despite renewing again. Without the social element of meeting with mates wouldn't bother most weeks. We will go down as the worst Premier League side of all time, we love a record.
