Loads of Crystal Palace fans on Twitter are fuming after Sky Sports reporter Michael Bridge confirmed that the club wouldn’t be making a signing on deadline day having spoken to manager Roy Hodgson.
While the Eagles did sign Gary Cahill, James McCarthy and Victor Camarasa in the final week of the window, they failed to get the right-back and striker they desperately looked to need – especially following the departures of Aaron Wan-Bissaka and Alexander Sorloth earlier in the window.
Now, Hodgson will have to go into the 2019/20 Premier League season with what he has got, with Joel Ward and Martin Kelly likely to be battling for the full-back role, and a reliance on Christian Benteke and Connor Wickham up top.
That is hardly an ideal scenario with sporting director Dougie Freedman and Steve Parish not managing to get any further deals over the line, and the Selhurst Park faithful are far from happy with the duo and the situation they now find themselves in.
While one individual simply said “Parish and Freedman out now”, another said “Championship next year lads”.
