Fact is he cost approx £30m and reputedly earns £120k per week and as such has played 53 games and scored 16 goals.
Worse than 1in 3 - just.
Worth it?

You got shares in the Benteke franchise?

Its January and you're telling me you'd be happy for that lazy f***er to play up top as the main man for the rest of the season? Roys playing him because he has to. Hasnt he tried to sign two strikers this window?

He is a headless chicken regardless. Ive never seen a forward with such a bad positional sense.

No movement, no desire, no work rate, s*** finisher and most importantly. NO football brain.

Yeah lets say how good he is and blow smoke up his arse because he played the ball out to Sako and won a few headers.

OPEN YOUR EYES.

You're blinkered

Yes we will if it keeps us up and if he has still only got two goals we can look at other options,.
But you will still prefer a headless chicken who runs around but produces nothing even if it sends us down so you can claim he works hard.

Just how long have you been watching Palace?

I reckon hundreds of HOLers could reel off the names of many, many forwards we've had (quite a few we paid good money for at the time) who had much less football brain and awareness than Benteke.

 


Well I think Simon's head is large; always involved in espionage. (Name that tune)

I'm 39 so long enough....

I'd be interested to see these hundreds of comments on here. Maybe you should start a new thread..

Well, I'm not going to start a new thread, nor can I be bothered to attempt a list of 100s of names but, just for starters, I'd offer, in no particular order: Akinbyi, Trevor Aylot; Shefki Kuqui; Gareth Taylor; Marco Gabbiadini; and Aaron Wilbraham. I'm sure others on here could chip in their own suggestions.

Personally I don't think all of those were absolute rubbish and some of them didn't cost an enormous amount but anyone who thinks Benteke is on a par with them for awfulness has not been watching Palace as long as I have.

the thing I can't abide is the "chase-down the-keeper-you-lazy-f***er" attitude of many at the ground. says so much about those people.

Benteke will come great.

 


If you want to live in a world full of kindness, respect and love, try to show these qualities.

This is turning into another hate thread .
I think we should just agree to disagree .
Younglad , Jay-jay , Spartakev we all know you don't like Benteke and think he is lazy , fair enough that is your opinion . My points and others will not change that opinion and you will not change others.
Let's leave it at that we do not need another Hennessey thread.

Haha he lifted it overt the full back out to the wing. Hardly a defence splitting ball. Come on


Perhaps sublime was the wrong choice but not the pass of a s*** player.
