Palace boss eyes striker boost

Warnock has been linked with a loan move for West Ham's Freddie Sears, although he reportedly faces competition from Sheffield Wednesday and Peterborough for the youngster. Sheffield United frontman Danny Webber is another possible target, although Warnock has so far refuted suggestions he will raid his former club. But he told the Croydon Guardian: "I'm talking to a few more players this coming week who we are trying to get in, they're basically all strikers."
