Ulloa or Afobe would be great.

Somebody mentioned Austin but said he is 'fragile'. But the great thing about Austin is that you can rebuild him to be better, stronger and faster. We would also know exactly what his price would be once we converted it into pounds.

Wouldn't be the first one of them we have signed.

Benik Afobe. Been told by Bournemouth he can leave. I'd make a move for that striker on the bench for Palace yesterday, Benteke😉

Would be great, but I've got a feeling future Premier and Champions League winners Wolves would be interested as well.

I don't understand why people think Palace would let him go out on loan?

Well both, but seeing as Afobe used to play there and is still quite highly regarded by some the Wolves fans I know, it might be an option.

We can't spend big money. Maybe we could agree a loan with a deal that we sign someone permanently if we go up?

Not necessarily Benteke, I think that's a pipe dream, just speaking generally.

Agree and think a deal like that for someone like Afobe would be a possibility.

Get a high earner off the wage bill in order to get someone else in? Just as we did with Veretout.

Austin scored two for S,hampton today, doubt they would let him go.
Long came on as sub and they were quoting some long period (forgot detail) since he last scored.

Eddie Howe has a very mixed record in the transfer market
