Since our last discussion here, Benteke has made it 850 minutes with no goal or assist in the PL (10 matches in which he mostly played the full 90 mins, hardly taken out), neither did he manage to convert a penalty.

Meanwhile, Gayle, the 20 million less striker, has done this against Manchester United:

And this against Chelsea:

And this (assist and goal today- right foot, left foot):

[Link]


This he did last year and stop claiming he could not keep it up on the PL, cause he clearly can:

By the way, regarding the 1st half goals argument, Gayle has about just as many as Benteke. Count them if you want to

Not trying to offend anyone with this post, but clearly I know a thing or two about this game. If I had been manager and replaced Benteke with Gayle and 3 other strikers at the start of the season, the situation would not have been as bad as it is today. Maybe I could not have known for sure, but analyzing these players has made me give out correct prognosis in advance

Can't we set our sights a bit higher? Anyone who can answer the interview question "Who takes the penalties for Palace?" would be an upgrade on what we currently have.

Left footed wingers:
Ben Arfa- who PSG wants to ditch and considering they got him for free, they probably just want someone to take over his wages
Jonny from Malaga, who is dramatically underused for someone who has had wonderful La Liga seasons before joining
Cheryshev- who has come back from injury but finds it difficul to get into Villareal's first team
Lestienne- who was amazing in the Eredivisie and the Champions League for PSV but is dramatically underused in Russia
Hernani from Porto- now that's a player I see as worth even 20 million. And they don't use him!


Not wanting to brag, but I did mention this player on a really short list in the original post here like a year ago, when no one was even giving him much chances in Spain. It's already his 3rd or 4th great goal in the World Cup tournament, so definitely not just an accident anymore.

Bragger!

Give you that one but to be fair most of your suggestions are ridiculous for one reason or another. You dont seem to take into account whether a player would be a disruptive influence in the dressing room ie Nani

If you throw enough mud at the wall, some of it will stick
