    Just been told that Benteke's weekly wage is more than the whole of the Colchester's squads weekly wage.

    Must have been a crowded dugout

    It only takes a minute season for Benteke to score

    The natives are getting restless.

    The £130k a week for Benteke who is averaging one goal in every twelve games since the 16/17 season, seems to be particularly annoying them.

    Palace apparently in talks with Benteke over a new contract.

    Go on do it. He's worth another 5 years at least!

    It's probably more than ours, never mind Colchester's!

    Benteke has scored 19 in 85 appearances for Palace in 3 seasons. At Villa he scored 42 in 89 appearances in 3 seasons. 
    They would be crazy to offer him a new contract he is pony and on a decline

    3 in 52 from open play.

    That's 1 in 17.

    For a 'striker' that cost £28m.

    On £130k a week.

    Plus £120 goal bonus.

    Somehow they always manage to pull off an unexpected win at a big club.


    This is the main reason I think they wont go down, always seem to pull out a win out of nowhere ala City last year, Man U the weekend. Always the potential for an upset. I think they will be more than safe, Norwich are a lot better than I expected, Sheffield United proving difficult to beat but I think they will go down. Villa I am not sure about yet, Newcastle if they can score goals they might be ok.

    In summary, although I said there are 3 worst teams, I think it will be free for all and very hard to call. There is a chance they go down but hopefully they don't pick up any more results against the so called big 6. If Zaha went i think there would be a great chance, they need to find someone who scores goals Benteke wont.

    Could be an exciting season at the bottom I reckon...

    Only exciting if the filth are amongst it.

    That's what Brentford were offering him.
  • Benteke hasn't scored a goal at Selhurst Park for 488 days now!

    @hucks6dh6

    If Benteke can nick a new contract after 4 goals in 2 years, I'm bring myself and @DionDublinsDube out of retirement, Homes under the Hammer will just be on Tuesdays and Fridays!

    Jeff Stelling in my bad books now, he didn't have to sound so happy about that.

    Lucky bastards! Sounds like Villa should have got either a goal or a penalty from the same incident

    VAR isn’t working how it should right now. Refs are simply scared to use it.

    Watched a fair bit of Spanish football last year, first season with VAR. Seemed to me to work smoothly over there. I'm in favour of it, but the Premier League's doing a poor job of implementing it. 

    Based on the description of the Palace incident on Sky, don't really understand what it's being used for. Sounded like a clear error.

    They are staying up so we can relegate them again in May 2021.

    They've had a whole seasons worth of luck in their last two games.

    This is their season - mark my words.....
  • Just watched the goal. You can hear a whistle before the goal is scored but have not seen ANY camera angles that show the ref blowing the whistle.
