30m just can't be turned down. He is a player who I loved and been hugely frustrated by in pretty equal measures. I suspect the spotlight at Everton with be stronger so he'll have to up his game.

Getting Benteke and another AM would make this a very good window.

 


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

All this stuff about goals scored etc is only half the picture.
When Bolasie is torturing defences,they are not attacking ours. He gives the opposition something to worry about and I am flabbergasted that we are prepared to sell him.
Do we still not have enough money?

'I'm not buying that'

since when do writers at the Croydon advertiser relentless put in their own opinions....

Years ago when I bought it with dad..on a Friday. ..it was obviously still a personal opinion matter...but the writers would put in 3 or 4 different possibilities...probable outcomes...to represent the fans opinion ....

what I read now just comes across as one guys opinion...

yes another CA writer put out a bit recently on how we SHOULD sell Yannick. ...but still...it's just not as good.

who was the CA advertiser sports writer back in the late 90s. He was top journo material

The CA has Palace fans contributing articles, they were inviting applications a few weeks ago.

The Bolasie piece is one of those.

Clubs sell players eventually. I look at us and think we should be modelling ourselves on Southampton - accept you will end up selling people but ensure you get premium money for them when you do. And this is undoubtedly top end for Bolasie who's end product isn't sufficient for this level (as entertaining as he is).

Assuming we get Benteke, it will be him that tortures and frightens defences much more than Bolasie as Benteke is a predatory striker with a proven track record of scoring goals when compared to Bolasie.

Yeah, he is so bad that a big club like Everton want to pay 30 million for him.

How people kid themselves to toe the party line and how short memories are.

This is a negative move and smacks of lack of ambition.
We can surely afford Benteke and Bony, Slimani,Berahino or whoever without selling our best players.
This is a business decision, make no mistake.

Oh I get it alright.

We are selling for profit to the detriment of the team.

I do hope this rant was sarcasm- we can surely afford Benteke AND one of the others you've mentioned?
Firstly, that would be an outlay of at least £50m- more likely more. And that's not even mentioning wages- both would be on £100k+
Secondly, can you honestly say that selling Yala for upwards of £25m and getting Benteke in would be construed as a lack of ambition?
I love Yala but if Benteke is worth £32m then realistically he's probably worth just under half that
We have 4 or 5 wingers capable of doing a job in this league, we have one centre forward.

Would you say swapping Gayle and Bolasie for Benteke and Townsend is weakening the side?

 


The problem with socialism is that you eventually run out of other people's money.
