14 days to go. Liverpool aren't in a rush to sell, and I doubt they'll let him go before the end of the window, without 'leveraging that for more money'. They know a) we've just sold Bolaise for an massive fee b) that the Bolaise money is likely additional money c) that we're desperate. They have 14 days before they're potentially stuck with him.

We could have offered 30m upfront, and they'd have knocked it back. Every game makes us more 'needy' not less.

Well then in that case this should all have been done pre season not one game in to the start of the season and STILL no striker and in all likley hood we will play spurs away with no Yannick and no Striker other than Wickham.

Pathetic management however you dress it up.

What games have you been watching.

Yes we do, yesterday we created almost nothing, in the entire game only Zaha's double chance which was created out of nothing by himself.

There was nothing coming from the middle of the park, and for the most part the wide men were bereft of service especially Townsend.

I'm referring to the first part of last season-we have the same players now minus Bolasie. There's no reason we can't get goals if we have atleast one decent forward fit all year. WBA was a new system, with new personnel, I'm not going to react based on one poor game.

The board do the deals. Not AP.

It was the same system he has played time after time , with slightly different personel due to injuries or lack of fitness.

If we really want him just offer £30 million and stop dicking around. It looks embarrassing. If we don't want him move on and get someone in! At this rate we will end up with Robson Kanu and someone from league 1

You may well ask! It seems that we have to try and squeeze every last penny out of every purchase we make, even when we're not in a position of strength, in fact quite the reverse. And this despite the fact that we received considerably more than might have been expected for both Bolasie and Gayle.

If we are truly serious about signing Benteke,just get a deal done now,what with Everton and WBA monitoring the situation.
Time to wake-up and smell the coffee, SP.

My worry is that we spend so much time on this deal that we don't replace jedi and Bolasie.


Ffs sort out parish, you proved your not up to negotiating these kind of deals. A new chief executive needed to assist parish.

Why laughing stock? DO you not have ambition, slightly cfrzy or otherwise? I negotiated a deal recently where our price started at around m and (because of add-ons) ended up at near m. Negotiation takes many faces. Like Newcastle wanting 35m for Sisokko, if we went in with a bid of 5m and they said "You taking the piss", we would have every recourse to say "Well, you started it!"

Today I genuinely feel we will get close to Liverpool's asking price, we will reach agreement and that will be that.


Yes we are as has been proven by reports in the press....you are the one that needs to rein in your thoughts and understand how the latest offer from us is rather stupid and not really the offer any club would put forward... My ambitions are as yours are but an offer like this on the table...GET REAL!!

Supported Palace for over 69 years since the age of 7 and have seen all the ups and downs and will probably see many more ups and downs before I go up to the big football club in the sky.

I'm fully prepared for a scenario of that sort come 1 September.

Palace in the Blood Flag 17 Aug 16 10.42am Send a Private Message to Palace in the Blood Add Palace in the Blood as a friend

Add on clauses and payment schedules in transfers are quite normal. The Bolasie one is £25 million plus addons which could lead to a total value of £30 million. Common clauses relate to number of games played in a period, league you are end up in with that player, Position you end up in, International recognition if they are not all ready internationals etc. What seems strange in this clause is that it is 3 pronged.

The reports are we offered £23 million plus add ons that take it to £30.5 million. We also wanted 4 years to pay in total.

Firstly We do not know how much Liverpool owe Villa and how much of £32.5 million was addons . Their purchase may state payment is due in full if he is sold on. Thats easy if Jedi is moving to Villa as they will be likely to accept a relaxation of clause.

It is likely that Benteke will want a relegation clause and I don't think that is unreasonable. The £23 million may be the value he wants that clause at. We will therefore want a clause in transfer contract in the add-ons protecting club.

So to me Add-on Clauses based on following are not unreasonable:-
1) Appearances
2) Relegation
3) Position in League / Getting into Europe
4) Wining a cup
5) No of Goals he scores
5) Sell on profit

With our slump in 2016 Europe may seem along way but at xmas we were in with a good chance of a Europa Place so therefor a clause about Europe is not so stupid.

A bit of the stand off as well is Liverpool playing for time to see if better offers come in.

I think the final figure Benteke will go for is £25 million plus add-on which may take possible total to £32.5 million.

Appearance Less than 20 games £0 20-25 games £300K 25+ £750K paid each year over contract

Goals Similar Less than 10 goals, 10-15 ,15+

£1 million if we play in Europe during his contract

A relegation Clause in year 1 which shared any loss on subsequent sale with Liverpool
