Giroud £30m and Iheanacho £30m and happy f***ing days right! We'd need or buisness done first so not to get egg on our face but the players are potentially out there If Giroud won't go to Everton, why do you think he will come here? Why would we consider selling Beneteke, he is a top class striker, just settled in here. His best days for us are ahead of him for us. Top class strikers are in demand, as there aren't many of them.

I wonder how suited to the way De Boer wants to play Benteke is. He's not great at pressing, gave the most fouls away last season. Benteke has his limitations, he seems to have lost some of his pace and dribbling prowess and his hold up play is not as good as we'd hope it would be. He's a very good header of the ball, good in the 6-yard box but not a proper target man nor someone that can stretch a defence. Unless it's silly money then I say keep, it's a risk to try and replace a goalscorer like Benteke. £30m-40m, plus Bolasie is what I'd be demanding.

He might have a "Bigger picture" and other players who he feels might be more effective in the system he wishes to operate ?

Why do fans feel that bolasie would come back and he injured until Jan . Without Big Ben goals we'd be down, ask most of the clubs from top7 down if they'd love Benteke the answer would be yes.

Frank is going to have to work with what we've got and one of those is a 15 goal a season striker. I'd hope that he'd have learned from his disastrous spell at Inter that change has to be gradual and not imposed. If he has any ideas that, in a month's time, we'll be playing like Ajax then he'll be looking for a new job in January and we'll need to be rescued yet again.

This post has been merged from a topic called 'Benteke out (rumour)' by kenbarr I really like Benteke, but, I think there are strikers in Europe that could do the job for a third of what we would want to sell him for. £60m has been suggested and I think that is a fair amount, considering his age and PL experience.

He has said that major changes too quickly would be non-sensical but he might of course make changes in the short-term whilst keeping the same 'Framework'. Edited by Willo (11 Jul 2017 9.59am)

As for not wanting to go to Everton...us being in London (where he's settled) as well as almost guaranteed starting week in week out would be a big pull. ***sorry this was in replay to Gladallover*** Edited by Lyons550 (11 Jul 2017 10.32am)
