I honestly think he was missed yesterday.
Another thing. How would you feel if Benteke had been lining up against us yesterday?
It would worry me.

Completely agree. He's been woeful in front of goal, that's not up for debate, but he's also been excellent at holding the play up and being an outlet for our midfield of even defensive line. We need him back for Brighton.

i have and Benteke is there to score his attempts are poor dropped by his national team, in defence he has do well cant take that away, but dont assume your the only x player on here who played at a decent level,i played defence when you have a striker like him to mark you dont and you keep reminding him how crap he is, sledging is not just a cricket thing.
just a thought maybe if he was more aggressive and even swung a couple of punches he may get his hunger back

No. We scored twice without him, it's the defence that's the problem - particularly letting in late goals and Hodgson's failure to change the game with subs at that late stage.

Ok so you have played at a decent level, but what does that mean? A blind man in a thick fog can see that Tekkers has been shocking for way too long.

If he had been playing at another club he would have been dropped long ago. Speaking to a Villa supporter and they said “ you get half a season out of him, then he just doesn’t fancy it”

As for giving it “ so called Palace fans and everyone knows jack s*** about football” have a word with yourself....

We did, but one was an extraordinary free kick from Milovojevic (who we know is good from the dead ball) and a good goal from Zaha, in a game that he contributed little else. I wouldn't want to rely on the same set of circumstances occurring in the next five games. I do agree that defending is a problem, but we do have the personnel available to sort that, plus we need to use the available subs to see games out.

They were 2 great goals and we had others to kill the game. Not sure if Tekkers would have changed course of events at Bournemouth to be honest, he might have got in Wilfs way for the goal and what a sublime bit of skill that was by him to create the chance....

What has playing football at a decent level got to do with knowing whether or not a player is any good. Let's not forget that Roy Hodgson didn't play at league level whilst Frank de Boer played at the highest of the high levels yet Roy has achieved far more as a manager than Frank did

The issue I think is that Benteke is not the striker we need with the attacking players we've got. We know honestly that crossing isn't really Wilf or Andros' strong point. I think we need a pacy striker to play off the last defender. Wilf and adros will be much better at cut backs along the floor or through balls along the floor

I agree with this. However, didn't Sam seem to get them playing together last season?

When someone on a football forum has to say they played at a high level you just assume they are talking bollocks. Second of all, who cares. Does it make your opinion more valid? What level did Mourinho play at again? Pipe down Mr Mitty

Indeed. That punctuation is a bit of a dead giveaway as well.

I've met several people who said they'd served in the SAS. I've never met anyone who actually has.
