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.

'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

Edited by matthau (10 Aug 2016 10.11am) The CA has Palace fans contributing articles, they were inviting applications a few weeks ago. The Bolasie piece is one of those.

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.
