I think given Bruce’s form this year it would be valid to say replacing him with Monk (or Graham) would probably have been a bad move. That's just silly. Graham Norton ruled himself out of the job to concentrate on his chat show. We'll only know if it would have been a bad move or not at the end of May.

Sorry, off topic It probably helped that he was playing under Sherwood. He had only just come back from injury. This ain't a dig at Sherwood. I actually liked him. But yeh going off topic.

It wasn't a managerial masterstroke - he just thought "Benteke is good... let's get the ball to him" and it worked well for a short while before it all fell to shit 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

And there were others (including me) that wanted Bruce out, but never Monk in. Even better times. 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

KSV Posted March 6, 2018 Share Posted March 6, 2018 Bruce would love Benteke. his style of forward. Be perfect for our system. If Palace went down and we went up.. surely we would be in for him? Id bet he be busting to come too. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
