Joel Piroe will end up here by September the 1st…. But can we function with just one striker, and Vardy as a back up? 

Do you know that for a fact?

[CaliFOXnia]

15m, Rak Sakyi with an option to buy if he shoots the lights out and bring Daka back in whilst pursuing Piroe/replacement is a no brainer for us.  
 

Kel has been Kel since the season started, and I think that’s all he will ever be. No amount of “he needs a run of games”, “he needs to be a 2nd striker” or “he’s great at linking the play” and the other stuff people love to say on here will change that. Reality is, bar a flick at Burton his output hasn’t been where we people seem to think it should be. He’s flattered to deceive against all but lower league opposition in the main, threatens to produce moments of magic but then is largely anonymous in games thereafter. He lacks the first touch / first class decision making to be a top player. 

Get a fee for him, give them an ultimatum re Rak Sakyi as part of any deal and give Daka a run if we can’t get a replacement. Suits all parties IMO. 

[Fox92]

I've never understood the love in for him but we can't sell with only Vardy and Daka. Would need a replacement and it's a bit late now if we haven't looked at one.

[Fox85]

Jesus guys Palace is not a big draw.

 

Kel wouldnt go there he is at a bigger club and still viewed at a bigger club even in a lower league.

 

He won't sign for place no chance.

Ffs....

 

Swap a 25 million pound player for a 7 million pound player.

 

A player that has proved him self at top level for year after year.

 

For a player that has had 1 half decent season in the championship.

 

Some people are crazy.

 

As I said above he is at a bigger club in the championship than Palace are in the premier league 

[Guest nathan.]

I’d rather keep hold of him only because it would be hard to find a replacement this late on.

I can see this going horribly wrong. Kele and Daka go cheap. No replacement, Vardy crocked, the goals dry up.

None of our strikers have scored a league goal yet so can’t dry up much more…😂

If you don't think Kel is a 25 million player please screen shot this and come back to me at the end of the season.

 

He would of signed a new contract as well by then

Absolutely no guarantee of him signing a new contract

By the end of next season there is every chance he will be worth absolutely nothing as he walks for free

 

[SouthStandUpperTier]

The way Enzo has us set up the central striker isn't going to score many goals whoever it is. Of the 3 we currently have, Iheanacho is best suited to the system in terms of coming deep and dragging the CB's out of position and creating the space for others to attack.

Computer says no

 

[Wasyls Pec Deck]

Selling him would be daft, so it wouldn’t surprise me.

 

Please keep!

That take his contract situation into account also the league he is currently in.

 

Promotion to the premierleague and new contract will bump that up £10 million if he starts bagging goals again.

There is a difference between liking a player and making up a thumb in the air valuation. Kel has the rest of this season on his deal, and i don't believe for one moment he is signing a new one during this season. Never a nailed on starter with 1 year left in the Championship, he is not going for £25 mil.

 

I like Kel, but something has never fully clicked and its not about being given a run of games. IMHO he was part of the problem before, and i think its time to move on if we can.

Or he may get flesh eating fasciitis and be worth nothing

So when we was on a bad run of form and we desperately needed a striker to get us out of the shit and Kel came into the team and started scoring goals for fun and was in great form for BR to just chuck him back on the bench makes him the problem.?

 

When he gets back to form he will be unstoppable 

 

People on here are well I don't think they are stupid but they are so quick to think a new signing coming in like let's say Piroe will perform better than Kel when Kel is clearly a better player in all areas.

 

But they would rather sell Kel for let's say 10 million and buy Piroe for 20 million.

 

Absolutely barmy some of you lot 🤣

We can't keep letting players leave for free at the end of their contracts.

 

 As it stands Ndidi, Choudhury,  Vestergaard, Iheanacho and Praet all walk for free in the summer.

How many patches of unstoppable form has he had since he joined in 2017?
