Benteke return may be on the cards. Loan to buy (from what I’ve heard last night)

Loan to buy wouldn't be the worst idea I've ever heard.

This is as uninspiring gossip and hearsay about an incoming 'striker' as this time eleven years ago.

Giroud just hasn't worked out at Chelsea but could be good for us. You would say no to Benteke on the back of his last few years but sometimes a player can be a good fit for a particular club. If we could get him back somewhere close to the player we had first time around I don't think anyone would say no. One thing for sure is that we use Wesley like a hold-up player when that's not his strengths whereas Benteke has shown in the past he can play that way.

Benteke needs loving and that's what the Villa fans would do with him as we know his strengths.  It's a yes from me!

We need to bring Yacouba Sylla home too, Benteke will need someone to talk to.

I wonder if we could get Snodgrass back.  I doubt it,  but his type would work for us, experienced, works hard, creates a fair bit and scores a few.  Seems to be first choice at Spam now though.

The only ex player who currently at palace as a striker worth taking is Jordan Ayew. Hes current and always always puts a shift in. When he's not elbowing Cresswell he did it at Villa and was one of only a few who showed some fight and pride (maybe more professional pride than for the team) and it's tellingly to see him do same at both Swansea and then Palace .
Can't say same of Benteke. Despite him getting goals for us and loving him I don't want him anywhere near villa

.

Can't see it. Teams seventeenth in the league don't sell first team players to teams eighteenth.

Well, okay, Small Heath did once. But nobody else is that stupid.

Mark Noble . Though thought unrealistic other day . Way he was getting upset yesterday he clearly needs to leave West Ham can come show the passion at the villa.
Sort of midfield general we need.

There is no way he is going to leave West Ham and I doubt him losing his temper means he needs to leave. He'll probably retire there and become a coach.

It’s a no from me, he’s earned (well not really) his money now and is chillaxing.
