It must be comforting to know that if it all goes wrong again you can just go into administration and start again. Bit like Football Manager where you just start a new game if it goes wrong.

£30m+ for Benteke, a striker who scored 9 goals last season. NINE. Wow.
And didn't the Palace fans bring out a petition last season demanding a warrant for his arrest and for the game to be replayed, after his injury time dive at Selhurst cost them the game ?
Now they all love him. Just like how they love all that Sky money which they used to hate as it was all part of modern football, which they hate, but now love. Look at how excited they all are now.
Palace fans aren't just fickle - they're positively bi-polar.

It is a real shame Benteke wasn't retrospectively banned at the end of the season for the supposed 'dive' as a result of pressure from Palace as it would have ended up punishing them.
To be fair a lot of Albion fans were adamant they would never want Murray back, yet you can bet your house if he hits the ground running and nets a few in the first 6 games he will be a hero again to the majority of fans. Football fans are fickle creatures by habit

He averaged nearly a goal every other game for Villa. He's a quality footballer and didn't get a fair chance at Liverpool
He was a FLOP at Anfield...Only Palace would think spunking that amount of money on a flop is tremendous!

Was he a flop at Villa?
Why are Liverpool getting rid..ask yourself that? He isn't choosing Palace over Liverpool is he? How do you as a Palace fan feel about spending that amount of money?
Aston Villa who finished 15th, 15th and 17th whilst Benteke was their top scorer? Sounds exactly like a Palace player.

Because he doesn't suit their style of play in any way, shape or form.
He will suit Palace's 100%. A lot of money, yes. But for Palace this is one heck of a potential signing.

He doesn't fit Kloops system, simple.
It's the first time we have spent big, I have no problem with that as I trust Parish 100%
Now I have answered your question, please answer mine. Was he a flop at Villa?
Unfortunately this is spot on, if Palace get him he could be sensational with the wide players they have

We finished 10th in 14/15. Do carry on
No he got a move to a BIG club..but clearly on his way down! trust Parish? He sold out at the first opportunity..Wonder how your numerous creditors from your last 2 admins are feeling?
As already posted, Villa were a flop with Benteke. He'll fit right in with you.
There's the diving as well of course, which so enraged Palace fans. You pretend Wilf doesn't do it, now you can pretend Benteke doesn't either.
I think he is only 25
With respect I did this with another one of your shitty lot last year...
How did that last European-challenging league season work out for Palace?

They're not a Championship team.
