Crystal Palace boss Roy Hodgson does not see the transfer window as the cure for his side's goalscoring woes.

Palace have struggled to find the back of the net this season, scoring only 10 goals in 14 Premier League games.

Their record is the second worst in the division, ahead of only Huddersfield Town.

"I'm afraid it is a very naive way of thinking. The fact is there aren't many January transfers where you bring in players who transform a team that has been struggling to scoring goals," he is quoted as saying by football.london.

"At the moment, we have a number of attacking players, and [Christian] Benteke is not too far away. [Jordan] Ayew, [Alexander] Sorloth and [Connor] Wickham are all training every day and trying to get into the team.

"I am pretty confident at the moment that, given the way that we play, and the way we have played up to now, that the goals will come anyway.

"And I certainly don't believe there is a magic solution out there that no one else has ever thought of or considered, or been able to buy, to come in here double our goal scoring tally, because he has still got to play in our team."
