A defeat at home to our arch rivals who outthought us completely,
A defeat where we thought it best to play four at the back whilst they played one up front leaving us short of men to break down their ten men behind the ball.
A defeat where our esteemed Manager decided to change a winning side to "give them a rest"!
A defeat where once we had scored we should have made substitutions and really gone at them.
Roy is undoubtedly a good Manager but he has huge flaws.
He won't change things when he should and yet does when he shouldn't?
It is very frustrating at home and having just received notice to renew my season ticket at a much higher price than before I am seriously questioning what to do next season now.
I love Palace but I am not a happy supporter at the moment as we just stand still and because of that probably no Wilf or Wan B next season because of this season.
Sorry but Roy has to move upstairs now - he is past it to be on the touchline now.

I wonder if Benteke has a "must play if fit" clause in his contract,because he has no impact being brought on as a late sub, and a similar result is achieved if he starts.

Unlikely. He'll have to be stuck out in the reserves until his contract expires. What club would be daft enough to pick up his ridiculous wages?

Unless another club is willing to match his current wages - or unless he's prepared to play elsewhere for lower wages - a 'free' is unlikely to happen. In which case the choices would seem to be:

Pay him off
Pay another club to take him (ie pay them an amount up front, so they are then willing to pay his high wages)
Keep him on the payroll until his contract expires
Have him kidnapped then claim on the insurance

How long does he have left on his contract? I think he’s got one more year left in the Summer!

My understanding is that his contract runs until June next year.

"On 20 August 2016, Premier League side Crystal Palace completed the signing of Benteke on a four-year deal for a fee of £27m which could rise by a further £5m, bringing the total fee to £32m"

this now seems to be a Christian Benteke thread!
With 1 year left on his contract we will have to either offload him for what we can get (which given his wages may not be much) or he will sit it out and I am sure will pick up decent wages as a free agent in 2020. If Sako managed to get £55k as a free agent I don't know hey he cant!
