We waited a very long time to get him over the line but thank God we did. He's awesome and seems to be a great lad as well. It was a huge amount of money but you get what you pay for and now he's up to speed he's making a huge difference

That's all from me on this tedious thread - good morning.

Usually we spend the last 15 minutes grimly clinging on with squeaky bottoms instead of going for it.

I think Benteke has a magnetic forehead. Chungy's free-kick was going nowhere near him until the last minute then it sort of hit this 5 yard field around Benteke's noggin and gravitated towards him. I think we ought to just start crossing into the box without even looking up, 9 times out of 10 Benteke will appear from nowhere and make the ball bounce off his nut.

A few people. My vague memory tells me that about 80% said sign him now. 15% said don't spend that much. 4% said don't sign him and 1% said I once saw him limp after being heavily tackled. This is of course without looking back through the 1000 pages of Benteke summer transfer talk.
Anyone with similar football free vague memories. please feel free not to contact me.

Come on, don't be lazy

Those are very precise figures based on a vague recollection. You could do the campaign literature if there's a second EU referendum.

It's true. It's why he's not allowed to play cricket.

I was just saying to my Mrs in the dying seconds of the game "If only we had Scott Dann available.....?)

Then.... Up pops Benteke to power home a beautifully delivered cross by the Chungmeister!

Getting stronger every game.

Those two extra points we earned yesterday after Benteke put all his strength behind a cross in the last seconds of the game go a long way to paying off the money we spent already.

When was the last time we snatched points at the very end?

Optimistic as ever

One adjustment they've made the past few games is to have everyone back for corners. A tricky call, since without an outlet you can get hemmed in.

But it seems to be working. Bentkeke has looked strong in our box and had several clearances, and with Mandanda it looks like the defence is better being patient at the back and not always giving it away by hoofing it up.

A good adjustment so far.
