If you think Benteke is worth keeping then rest of post is irrelevant to you.

For me, Benteke is highly paid non performer. I have no idea if his contract extension changed his salary but for the sake of this example let's assume he is on 100K per week or 5.2 million per year.

If we were lucky we might get 10 million for him now but no one would pick up his salary IMO.

We have to accept he was a poor investment and more or less balances the money we got for Bolasie.

I would let him go on a free to get him off the
payroll and free up his salary for someone like Bats.

Benteke can negotiate his own signing on fee in lieu of a transfer cost, if he gets 10 million signing on fee and a salary of say 40K a week, over 3 year contract that earns him 16 million which you would think he would be delighted to achieve.

Benteke is worth keeping.

That's all.

An alternative way of looking at Benteke's contribution would be to say that without his goals in his first season with us we would now be in the Championship

Past contribution irrelevant to present/future but if you consider his contribution was the difference in staying up then he was useful previously but that was then etc

According to reports in the Press recently, Palace are asking £7-8m for him.

Please ship him out! Can not stand his misses any longer - even though he improved before that silly red card at Villa Park.

If he still has a broken foot, I can't see anyone taking him this transfer window and I expect him to be a Palace player through to January.

Hopefully the foot recovers well and he links up well with Eze.

 


It's 106 miles to Chicago, we got a full tank of gas, half a pack of cigarettes, it's dark... and we're wearing sunglasses.

His general link up and hold up play is very good. The goals have dried up but you can see there is a player there, and he may rediscover this. I would see how this season goes and if it’s not to standard then he is free to leave at the expiration of his contract. I think Sakho is the player we should look to sell ASAP considering he isn’t a starter and commands a hefty wage.

Everyone knows we need strikers and then someone creates a thread about terminating our only real striker’s contract and letting him walk for free.

Only for him to negotiate a new signing on fee for himself and to play for someone else.

THINKKKKKK

Absolute confidence player. Just needs a couple of goals and I reckon he'd start scoring again. Very disappointed we missed out on Fraser as reckon he would be perfect for Benteke
