Carlos form was nearly as bad as Benitez

Carlo checked out about 10 games before the end of the season, I assume when he had been told that despite previous promises; he had nothing to spend.

Injury prone 30-year old on double his wages, yes the same thing.

….his record doesn’t suggest he’s a goalscoring midfielder, but from what I’ve seen he does get into the box which is something Lampard will encourage.

What a manager to learn from. Lampard was the best at it in the premier league era.

Untrue. Compare their league winning rate at the club.

just shows how far we have fallen if vdb is even considering palace!

We are that team that suddenly falls away The league position tells all.
The squad definitely need a natural creative midfielder who can pick a pass and spread out play going forwards.
Thought Gomes would take the chance but he is slow and can't even shield just gets bossed off his game.

Few teams in the league need him to the extent that we do (including Palace TBF).

I’m talking world football though. If he’s as good as the OP suggests and he’s available looking for World Cup game time why are the only two clubs pushing mid table & relegation fight.
