you are an absolute wrong 'un, and I remember messaging you in support when you got some flack from certain individuals back in September 2014. Your vendetta against a player we should be grateful to have on our books is frankly bizarre, particularly when our striking options have included the likes of Ameobi, Yaya Sanogo & Kevin Doyle amongst others in recent years.

Tempting offer, but we need his goals and we are already light upfront.
Overall I think he's done well playing in difficult role upfront on his own. Shame Wickham got injured when he did as they were looking dangerous as a pair when both playing at the same time. |

Costa got 1 chance against us and scored,something he does quite often as they don't create much. What he does do is works his bollox off and makes the CB's lives hell,benteke does neither. £40 million is crazy money he's not worth half that.

So the sun report we are willing to sell wilf and it's all bollocks.. they report some random Chinese club have his £40m and people beleive it.. despite sources close to the player and the club both saying no offer, he doesn't want to China and he is also happy at palace. Odd.

Cue another striker, a LB and CB and we keep wondering why we still can't win... Not that an LB, CB and ST aren't important but that's down to us becoming exposed by not bringing in better cover for Souare and taking on a crock in Remy back in the summer. Now we have to fix those problems before we can even consider bringing someone who can f*cking pass to the attackers, something we've only needed since hmmm...the day we came up? Always felt Benteke was a terrific player but, Christ, how I wish we'd gone for someone half the price, brought in a classy AM and DM instead then kept Gayle after having brought someone who can pass the ball to a striker's feet. I think we would have scored more goals but also have protected the defense better, been less reliant on Zaha to do everything and less f*cked if our hypothetical £15m striker got injured because we'd still be able to well supply Wickham or Gayle. We also should have had an AM chipping in with a few as well, like Sigurdsson does for Swansea. Instead, as I feared back in the summer, all our eggs went into the Benteke basket and now we have a striker way better than the supply. We also have two crocked strikers and no back up option to Benteke able to turn our crappy service into goals. I said much of this would happen if we didn't fix the midfield issue back in the summer just like I said we had been figured out and were skating on thin ice at Christmas 2015, just before the year long plummet. So, one year and one, still, dysfunctional midfield later, we are continuing the slide and facing relegation, which I predicted was likely in the summer window if we spunked everything on Benteke and did nothing to improve supply. We didn't so we are where we are and, frankly, after this repeated policy over eight windows of failing to prioritize players capable of premiership level creativity, we can have no complaints if relegated. If your final ball is Championship quality at best, sooner or later that's the level you will be. The writing has been on the wall for way too long at this point for us to blame anyone but ourselves. |

Costa is playing for the manager . He couldn't be arsed last season and was like a powder keg in a lot of games . Let's hope Benteke likes Sam and responds to him .

In any case, 40m, a large chunk I assume will go in a sell on fee to Liverpool, wouldn't represent good business. Give him some regular decent service and he'll come good.

Anything is worth what someone will pay for it....On eBay with old crap or footballers to China....But I agree Benteke needs to man up!

Costa would also cost twice as much as Benteke, he is one of the best forwards in the world.

You wouldn't have been saying this 12 months ago.

Liverpool were reportedly offered £45 million by a Chinese club for Beneteke but like now he didn't want to sign , His worth is falling unless its due to the weaker pound .

I don't know why people assume there is some big sell on fee with him. It wasn't like we got him for a steal of a price from a lower league club or that he's a youth player that may eventually blossom. We paid market value for an unwanted player, we would have been crazy to agree to some ridiculous sell on clause with the money we paid. Can't believe Parish would be that stupid

Yep let's accept a bid for a player and ship him off the China when he doesn't want to go...
