I think things are getting a little ahead of themselves. So far we have bid £25 m and Liverpool said no thanks we want £33 m. No sign of anything else happening since the bid 2/3 weeks ago so I would guess this is dead in the water. No need to worry about medicals or personal terms it's irrelevant.

What with Wickham and campbell Of course we desperate, we explored other options and their just as expensive as benteke. We can't start the season with just 2 strikers. Last season with failed to score more than one goal on many occasions. I look at every other strike force in the prem and our is probably the 2 or 3rd weakest, behind Hull City and maybe burnley. We had numerous occasion to strengthen the strikers in the years we've been in the prem. Where it was the board or money involved we copped out. Look at the strikers that have led the line for us since promotion. Edited by CPFC/SCCC (25 Jul 2016 4.15pm)

I would say any club who has only Wickham and Cambell is up shyte creak without a paddle. But Benteke is not the answer at that price. what about Shane Long ? We also need a goal scoring CM in my humble opinion. Edited by dannyh (25 Jul 2016 4.15pm)

Point taken,but should we simply pay the full asking price of £33m for a Liverpool reserve or for that matter,be competing in an auction with Stoke for Saido, another player with an attitude problem, apparently?

Personally I would look into a deal for edin dzeko, has prem exeprience or even islam slimani from s Lisbon both players suit our style. Whether there cheaper than benteke remains to be seen.

[quote=CPFC/SCCC Jeez. Can we at least wait until the first game of the season before we start talking about relegation? As far as I am concerned, Palace under CPFC2010 is all about iterations. I am not going to get all dewy-eyed or rose tinted, but surely we can all see that things are going in the right direction? Gayle wasn't going to fire us into the top half of the table - I loved the bloke, but he lacked the quality in front of goal. Berahino has the quality infront of goal, but seems a bit highly strung and Benteke is proven to improve a team that is not all that great (i.e. Villa). Either would be brilliant, but if we don't get them, then we are hardly going to go too far into the season with two strikers.

This may be a bit leftfield, however I am of the opinion that if Wickham gets a run of games, stays clear of those niggling injuries, he will be an unstoppable force. I actually think he could end up being better than Harry "s***e for my country" Kane, if and I know it's a big if, he stays injury free. The lad has pace, is great in the air and we have all seen what he can do with a run of games. Not really sure we need Benteke for that money I think someone to play off Wickham like Berahinio would be better, but what with Pulis and Parish not exactly being best buddies I can't see that happening can you ? Comparing Wickham with Kane? Wow.
