I'd be very surprised if this turned out to be true. Just look at the reaction in Belgium to him signing for a Premier League club.

Behind Wickham and Campbell in the pecking order and will be on ressies duty when they are fit and whilst Keshi and Ladapo are on loan and playing first team minutes every week. Still, I'm sure he's keen to learn and we've lost nothing in modern day Prem terms by signing him for peanuts as 4th striker whilst our other prospects are out and playing on loan.

Obviously I want him to become a global superstar, but can't help feeling that, that should of been Kaikai coming on today. I know he needs to play more than sit on the bench, but the injury situation, which obviously no one can predict means he would of got some time early in the season. This is not aimed at AP in particular, but premier league managers in general over the last 10 years or so, they are willing to give a young foreign player opportunities that they just won't give home grown players. Is young Ben seriously, at this moment in time better equipped for premier league football than Anderson or Kaikai? That's Life And as funny as it may seem Some people get their kicks stompin' on a Dream. KEEP THE FAITH!!!!!

Originally posted by Onions I'm not sure the younger Benteke really looks like a footballer. When he came it was clear he was very naive about playing at that level. Probably worth it though having him just to keep his brother happy! What does a footballer look like, so I know how to spot them? Edited by Painter (11 Sep 2016 10.47am)

twist Miami, Florida 15 Sep 16 4.29pm
seemed pretty bizarre to me that he turned up at the club then hes coming on as a sub before you know it ! The smile on his face when he came on showed how huge a step up this is for him. Pretty sure the older Benteke has it in his countract we had to bring in his younger brother and give him some game time, or maybe he has bags of potential and he will become the most prolific striker in premiership history !!!

He wouldn't have been near the team if Wickham or Campbell were available. Kai Kai has moved up a level and coming off the bench for Brentford. Employee of the month is a good example of how someone can be both a winner and a loser at the same time.

Benteke jnr and Mutch not going to win us games. Mutch not up to it jnr needs time to adjust to English pace. Nil points if either of these are starter's or even on the bench.

Watching the game, he was there to harass the backs and be a nuisance to Middlesborough. Potentially hold up the ball. He did okay, but the one thing he did wrong was take a shot from 30 yards out. No real purpose behind that, and should have taken the ball to the corner and wasted time.
