Palace's criteria for paying the add on £7m were apparently as below according to the GUARDIAN

The report claims an additional clause was inserted that would only be paid if Palace qualify for the Champions League, with Benteke playing in 70 per cent of the fixtures and scoring 20 goals in the process - it’s pretty unlikely that all three of those things happen in a single season anytime in the future.
 
You wouldn't let a £34mil asset drive to hospital on his own if you thought he had a bad shoulder injury, surely?!

One of the most ludicrous things I've heard all week.

Sounds very reasonable.

Would you expect a £32m international striker to play in 70% of games (if fit) for a team like Palace...........Definitly
Would you expect a £32m international to be capable of scoring 20+ goals in a season...............Oh yes
Could a 20+ goal striker push a team like Palace up into top4....................See Leicester for details

Seems to me your club value him at £32m but have absolutely no faith he can perform like one, irrational really :emoticon-0100-smile

For us. Perfectly logical.
 
[HASHTAG]#LFC[/HASHTAG] could be without the influence and acceleration of Sadio Mane at Burnley. He has a minor muscle injury, not a dislocated shoulder.

Fairly obvious as our medical team would not have let him drive alone with anything serious!
