Originally posted by PalazioVecchio another game, another load of rubbish. missed a sitter. Otherwise didn't do much. we can give Benteke to Millwall for free, for all i care. rant over. Rubbish. He did more in the first 10 minutes he was on than Bats did for the first 63. We looked much more balanced when he came on.

I agree completely, It wasn't a bloody sitter he missed, it was poxy pass out of his reach. We were a much better team with him on the pitch and I hope to see him play for the rest of the season. Zaha is a better player when Benteke is on the pitch.

Maybe we looked better With CB on, but his miss (no excuses) was just an other example of his status as main striker. Please release him during summer whatever it brings in of money - we can not let this go on!!!

He has completely lost any confidence in front of goal. Let’s not forget that this is his job! Bring back Brolin

Talking about strikers Rondon missed a number of chances for the Toon yesterday it isn't all easy playing upfront as a lone striker. Like a lot of you have said Benteke improved our hold up play and won some headers when he came on, and as Luka has stated he was influential in changing the momentum of the match in our favour.

CB will not be a mug and accept a transfer with 12m left on a contract that allows him to shop his 'talents' and test the foreign market in January. Unless we offer him an extension of roughly £150k pw-plus and say a £5m...ish signing-bonus he will not stay. That's cos his agent will tell clubs: "You are getting a £30m striker here for nothing, bung us half that and we will sign." Come the end of next season Steve Parish will see his £30m investment walk out the door with zero compensation coming back. No wonder Alan Pardew described CB's arrival as a: "No brainer."

Hope to see him play every minute feasible until the end of the season. Really cannot see him leaving before next season, meaning he will definitely be no.2/3 striker, so we need to allow him a chance to get his confidence back. “ [T]here are known knowns; there are things we know that we know.There are known unknowns; that is to say there are things that, we now know we don't know.But there are also unknown unknowns – there are things we do not know we don't know. ” —United States Secretary of Defense, Donald Rumsfeld

Originally posted by antipodeagle Agreed. We looked much much better with him on the pitch. I didn't watch the game - merely MOTD - but The Sunday Times rated him 4/10; the lowest rating on the Palace team. Palace since 19 August 1972. Palace 1 (Tony Taylor) Liverpool 1 (Emlyn Hughes)
