Crystal Palace to sign Chelsea reject? #shorts

Crystal Palace need another attacker in January

Fifth in the league, quarterfinals of the League Cup and European knockouts on the horizon

Palace have an opportunity to deliver a second successive historic season and potentially persuade their best ever manager to stay

A lot of that hinges on adding one more first-team quality piece to this side

But who? Palace need someone who is ready now. An on-brand pick

Raheem Sterling. Now hear me out. Palace love a Chelsea loan. Sterling wants out and fits the profile Palace are after

He can play either side, he's good on the shoulder of the last defender, and his attacking positioning is strong

Chelsea need to get rid, Palace need someone to take some minutes off Saar's shoulders

I see it. Brennan Johnson is a name that's been thrown around, and again, don't laugh at this suggestion

Johnson and Saar are very similar players. Good runners in behind, excellent finishers and top-notch positioning

Johnson would be a seamless tactical fit, and aged just 24, could represent good value if Spurs are willing to sell for around the £30m mark

This is a man who got 25 goal contributions for Spurs last season

and whilst he has holes in his game, Glasner's system would perfectly cover them

But my pick, a name that's been floating around this week, is Oscar Bob, and what a signing that would be

More Elise than Saar, Bob would solve arguably Palace's biggest problem right now

which is breaking down low blocks. He's young, he's hungry, he's immensely talented

and Man City are reportedly open to bids. It would be ambitious

but now is the time for Palace to be exactly that. January is a big month for the Eagles

both on and off the pitch. Let's see how they fare
