We buy a £27m striker and play a style that creates nothing for him in open play, leaves him isolated and forces him to chase CB's even though he's no comfortable with it and never was (ask Liverpool). We know he's probably the best in the air in the league and we stay narrow and keep it on the ground?

wtf?!

This is the reason that he was unsuccessful at Liverpool. He's one of the best target man's in the division. We must play to his strengths.

Actually we'd be better off with Bumfluff. At least he'd cost less.

I would like him to be able to do through ball shooting instead of relying just on headers. Obviously this requires capability of our midfield. Look at Lukaku's 2 goals yesterday.

I agree with Kevlee
That would avoid everyone slagging off Beneteke for not changing his natural playing style and satisfy FDB's ego/grand plan.
I think CB is one of the best headers in the PL - get those crosses in from the wings and he will score.

Yeah he was all of those last season, only 15 PL goals(17 goals in total); what a total waste of £27m. And it only took us until our forth season in the PL before we signed a striker that was worthy of the name so it should be a piece of cake to replace him. Just one question worth considering though; how did he (and arguably the rest of the team) become so sh*t between the end of May and the beginning of August?
