Well why come out with such a ludicrous comment. What I trying to say is it took years to find a forward to get into double figures in terms of league goals. It's extremely unlikely that we'd sell Benteke after spending the best part of all summer. Trying to convince him to come. 15+ goal striker are hard to find ask West Ham and stoke and many other mid table teams.

That full stop after the word summer, killed me.

I like Benteke, and I felt sorry for him when loads of Palace fans criticised him for lack of effort, when clearly we were not playing to his strengths. I fear the same is going to happen this season with the way we play. Selling Benteke to bring in one or two top quality players to suit FDB's system would be an option. As in the title of the thread.

Correct me if I wrong but de Boer used a target man striker at Ajax in Milik.

Millik style is a target man he got 23 goals in 34 games under de Boer.

Agree with this.
I am a big fan of Benteke but if we can get 40 odd million for him from a chinese team surely we have to accept.
Could get Iheanacho and Sakho for that.

You would swap Benteke for iheanacho and Sakho. Ha ha
Strikers come at a premium. I can't believe so many fans willing to sell Benteke. Sakho not coming to Palace. You don't stay in the premiership, unless you score goals. Also with this iheanacho deal, it massively favours city. Buy him for 25m , but you can only sell him for 30m. Where's the value in this for Palace.

Agreed. We take all the risk but we won't benefit if there is a reward.

probably saving over 100k a month on salaries after all the players have been released.

Could sell:
Le Chung Yong - 2 mil
James McArthur - 8 mil
Bakary Sako - 3 mil
Mutch - 1 mil
Kelly - 6 mil (if we are buying another CB, dont need 5)

We couldn't replace all these players in the time available and the money raised wouldn't be enough. We have already released 6 from the squad we have yet to replace.
I'd still get rid of Mutch though as he wasn't in the squad.

Selling your only fit striker and top scorer isn't a very prudent move to avoid relegation. I cannot believe anyone would suggest such a move, then think we can bring in cheaper players to replace him. Strikers are at a premium, as there aren't many that are any good at this level, every team is searching for them.
Why would we sell our only fit one?

Finally a sensible Palace fan. We already need 4 or 5 players. Why would we weaken our squad to then replace with 2 more risks. One thing you can guarantee with Benteke is he will score at this level.
