The fight between them after the whistle, anyone see it and care to comment? I assume the incident in question was the breakaway when Andros didn't Square it to Tekkers?

I think Townsend should have squared it but FFS show me a player who hasn't made a mistake. Did anyone assault Benteke when he fluffed that penalty? He needs to have a word with himself.

Benteke seems like he isn't a team player and doesn't give a damn about Palace. He's a massive sulker and thinks he doesn't score goals because his team mates are inferior.

In reality, his team mates don't pass because they're probably fed up with him slowing everything down. It was a mistake on Townsend's part but as the game finished with a Palace win this is just nonsense.

It's ashame that 30 million only buys you someone that only looks half interested when you directly put the ball on his head from 6 yards out.

Unfortunately though, Remy is a sicknote and wasn't on bench again today, I'm sure he'd be a better fit. We could also look at someone in the Andy Caroll mould if we stay up but obviously right now you have to go with Benteke over the likes of Frazier Campbell and hope he shows up occasionally.

There's literally no way you can know who or what he gives a dam about unless you've talked to him.

Not sure what you mean by slowing everything down. Thought he did alright today...couple of decent half chances with heads and a nice shot on the turn.

Benteke passed to Townsend thinking he was going to get it back, instead of andros going for glory.
I was in the Whitehorse, & anticipated just that, so was shouting at Andros (not that he could hear) when the ball went skywards. I think on this occasion benteke has every right to be pissed off, as he could have gone for glory too but passed to Townsend in what I would call team play..

Benteke to Townshend to benteke, Goal !! Would of been a beautiful bit of team play.

Perhaps if benteke makes a fuss now Townsend makes the pass next time

2-0 would have been even better for us, that's why.

 


This was once a quality forum....

name a striker who isn't frustrated with lack of opportunities. not as if he's received a lot in recent months. a good opportunity wasted will, and should, anger a respectable striker.

Benteke was mad because he was desperate to score. That's OK in my book. Good on you Tekkers!

Piss off, it's a forum and if a couple of our players are having a scrap after the match this is where we can talk about it.

Nothing wrong with a little verbal between players, gets them psyched up & maybe thinking about the options more next time. An extra goal would've closed that GD down to 2 worse than Boro & I can see why anyone would think that could be important.
