£25m for Bolasie didn't they.

If they sign Young that's good business for Palace, ignoring the money.

Liverpool fans argued the true cost of Andy Carroll was £15m due to the fact they received £50m for Torres.

Using this model of calculation the true cost Palace are paying for Benteke is £7m taking into account they received £25m for Bolasie.

Liverpool have made a £25.5m loss on a forward they coveted for long and gave up after 10 months.

Scousernomics 101.

I simply don't understand how they can still get £32m for that £#%&!er considering how god awful he's been since he went there.

£32m from a bottom half team for a player who has been an utter flop.

And people have the gall to say we overpaid for Pogba.

pretty simple but for you here's a quick lesson

Liverpool paid £32.5m for Benteke from Aston Villa.
Everton paid £25m for Bolasie from Palace.

£32.5 - £25m = £7.5m.

This is using the RAWK logic that the cost of Andy Carroll was £15m because of the cost of Torres. They even had the gall to claim they made a profit on him when West Ham paid £17m to sign him.

Everton must have known this would happen when they handed over £25m for that show pony.

They've funded a club to sign a reject from their biggest rivals

Will probably ensure that they stay up comfortably tbf. Good signing for them imo

Yep, agreed. He will do pretty OK for himself there.

Given the way the market has gone this summer theyve made a significant loss in insane football terms.

Current market innit.

I'm not surprised.

If troy deeney is worth £30m etc etc

Benteke will be a good signing for Palace. They will pay to his strengths which Liverpool didn't.

£32m is nothing if he scores 10-15 league goals and keeps them up.

Is that transfer committee still there at Liverpool?
