Was it a careless whisper?

Were you in a gents toilet with an American cop nearby? Or did you misslip a chocolate bar?

No, but do tell us what it was like. Did you enjoy it?

 


If you come to a fork in the road, take it.

Just on this thread for the entertainment value of the comments alone. In particular the whisper and wimpy restaurant ones

I saw a report from either Gold or Sullivan with a quote from them saying that Palace are going to be paying Benteke silly money.

He came up with the same line when they failed to sign Austin last season.

Makes me think that this deal is pretty much done. It seems like it's being drawn out by Liverpool being greedy. We all now CPFC2010 are happy to sit and wait out a deal rather than rush and get ripped off.

I wonder if Simon Jordan has impaled himself on a dildo yet?

Reading this Liverpool blogg reveals that Benteke missed quite a few 1-on-1 sitters last season that they are keeping very quiet about. One thing for sure is their supporters are generally very keen to off-load him onto us. So maybe the deal not going through won't be a bad thing? Hey, we've still got 30+ million to spend on some decent firepower.

I don't really understand what you mean, how are they keeping quiet about it? It's not like footage of Liverpool games is top secret is it?

I imagine our scouting team/Pardew/Parish have watched every second he played last year on tape.

 


Employee of the month is a good example of how someone can be both a winner and a loser at the same time.

Liverpool tried to feed him goals and it didn't work. Benteke thrives on battling it out with defenders and figuring out/trying ways of beating defence and keeper. A lot of his goals at Villa were headers from high crosses or shots lashed in from loose balls or moves starting from the halfway line, as they were a good counter attacking team, especially away from home, ahem, like us.

He is not top club material but he is a very very good player for our level. He is going to regret not moving if that's what it comes to.

Yep I saw loads of awful Benteke misses at LFC. Really really poor misses. I think he had too much time to think before chances rolled to him and was instructed that that was how they were playing and he had to finish what they produced.

As I've said, I think he flourishes on spontaneity, speed, strength, height, leaping, hard shots etc. Getting him to slot into a role at a big club isn't something he can do and now they're going to play the high pressing game, he has no chance.
