Regardless of any potential West Ham interest, this all just smells of the summer of 1994 and Kennet Andersson disappointment.

But Berahino has had a striker partner at West Brom, we don't play two up front, if we buy him we will have to change our formation, cant see that happening. He plays the same game as Gayle but albeit better.

well i dunno about you lot but i had fun while all this benteke talk lasted, but just goes to show how far we have come. To even have the audacity to launch such a bid personally looking at it, i think we are perhaps 3 to 4 years more of prem football as well as a major cup final win away from signing a player of bentekes pedigree although if we was moving to a fantastic shiney 60k new olympic stadium that would of been a bonus too Edited by tillysosser (06 Jul 2016 10.20pm)

I suspect what is happening here is with a lack of definite news we are speculating ourselves round in circles and now convincing ourselves because it would be such a big signing for Palace and that it hasn't happened yet that it isn't happening. A bit like waiting for the news after a job interview over the time you go through a series of stages to if you have it or not, that natural feeling that if it doesn't happen quick there must be a problem.

Its a 30+ million quid deal, im sure most of these bigguns take a bit longer than most. We just know no different as its new to everyone connected to palace.

Alex1991 Ashford 06 Jul 16 10.52pm
I've just had a sniff around some West Ham forums and there is no mention of Benteke. They're all talking about Bacca and there are a few of the "reliable source close to the club says it's done" posts. Read into that what you will. Wonder if this thread will get to 100 pages before any deal is done or he joins someone else ! "Brighton are talking about how they're coming for us. And it's like, we've been waiting in the Premier League for you for ages." Wilfried Zaha, 2017.

I'd rather sign Babacar for 15m than Benteke for 30 plus. If Benteke were playing for a European club, asking price would 15 to 20. The fact he's playing for Liverpool it's 30plus. We could get two good strikers for that kind of money. Wickham, Babacar and Van Persie even last year people would be in rapturesover that attack, and VP would free money for an AM or RFB
