If he, or Berahino do join the club, neither of them really want to be here. So perhaps CPFC 2010 and AP will find a proven quality striker (or 2) that do want to be at CPFC. Easier said than done though!

Very few players actually want to play for clubs they sign for, most of the time it's a career move or loads of money. Benteke, Berahino, Babacar and all the rest you could name don't care who they play for as long as the deal is right. That's modern football, if you're waiting for a player to publicly state he is desperate to play for Palace you will be waiting a long long time.

 

The ups and downs of Palace have left me older than my years

Still got a bit of momentum this ol thread, very impressed. Will he come/won't he who knows? What I do know is that we won't be seeing a thread like this again for a while. Long live the Benteke thread!

Yeah but not caring where you play is very different from being adamantly opposed to playing somewhere. Betting 30 million pounds on anyone is risky especially for us...I'd rather sign two strikers in the 10-15 million range who are interested in playing here.

The bookies are saying he'll be at Palace [Link]
and I agree. Just waiting for 23/07/2016 to arrive when he qualifies for his one year bonus. Then I'll know.

The mirror stated this deal is now dead in the water and I tend to agree.

There obviously is a logjam, but logic dictates that this cannot continue. Benteke needs to move on and actually play games. Liverpool surely have to do a deal on askng price in oder to release funds for further signings themselves. This means we have two weeks max to get this thread over 150!

The fact that we're in for Benteke is not the sign that Palace have come so far, it's the fact that the Ross McCormack thread has been outdone by the Benteke thread.

 

So I manage a Workshop which provides a safe learning environment for blokes struggling with PTSD and other mental health issues. Being a Palace fan isn't listed yet.

I tend to agree, we should try and buy Sakho and the french lad playing in Holland who's name escapes me.

a combined deal of just over £20 million.
