from what I've been reading over the last month it's more to do with Liverpool valuation greed than his agent. yes there was that agent story but most of the news coming out was the strong rumour that it's more about liverpoold negotiation tactics.

yes you could say I know nothing. it's all hearsay. but then so is us saying benteke doesn't want to sign for us...

Apparently Liverpool have a reputation for hard ball negotiations so no real surprises here. Klopp is clearly getting frustrated and seems like this is beginning to unfold. Patience is a virtue and we have one of the best in the business in SP protecting our interests. Plenty of time yet...chill!

I can put an end to this rumour for now-

A friend in the advertising industry told me that he saw Parish out for dinner and that he confirmed Benteke was coming. Later that night he received another call to say the deal was off. Benteke reluctant to leave apparently...

So if this is correct, could be why Klopp has come out and publicly 'divorced' Benteke which, again if true, won't exactly endear him (CB)to the CP faithful should he decide to realise that we are indeed the club 'of his dreams' and at present his only real escape route!!

This lot should be in politics!

Would you say he's "one of the best in the business" at signing prolific strikers?

Seems to make sense. He will leave Liverpool but not for us.

All smoke and mirrors. The 'truth' could be snything from its all done and dusted, to its back to the drawing board, to ....?

If Palace want to spend big, and we give that impression, then this bid shows we are shopping at Selfridges rather than down Penge market.

It means other players would view our credibility and ambition differently than they would have before this window began.

Is the correct answer.

 

Jaha Flag 18 Jul 16 7.16pm

We surely have to sign this guy, not sure where else he would go if he wanted to stay in England other than..... West Ham (pr1cks). He is the perfect striker for us, I'm sure of it. After all these rumours, and how persistent they have been, we surely have to work something out

We be waiting for Jim white to announce it on deadline day.

So is your friend connected to Parish in any way or did he just give out this information to a complete stranger (as you do)? Unless you can expand on the circumstances where and how this (alleged) conversation took place, I don't really see how you're in a position to put an end to, or indeed, comment on this story at all.

Wickham, Campbell and probably Calvin Andrew, how more prolific do you want to go?

Anyone got an idea what odds I could get for us signing both

Benteke & Berehino?

 

jimruss Flag Sidcup 18 Jul 16 9.08pm

Pretty good odds I would think.

For what it's worth I don't think either of them will end up at Palace.

Benteke seems to think we're beneath him and would rather get splinters in his ar5e sitting on the bench and I'm not sure Berahino is what we need.

Can see us leaving it until the last day or two of the window where we'll sign someone completely underwhelming who the club will say was our target all along.

I've seen a few comments like this and it amazes me how, considering none of us have any clue at all at what's going on with this deal, people can have that opinion of him.For all we know he could be gagging to sign and its the club who won't lower the price and us who won't go higher.
