As soon as I read the thread title I thought of this moment. He looked utterly confused, almost scared, dithered and then almost fell over his ludicrously low powered pass. He looked like a sick puppy.

Clinton is Clinton. I have known him for a long time, I know his mother... Simon Jordan

Whenever Benteke picked up the ball he was so deep he had no one to pass to. I might be wrong but I'm sure at one point we looked like we had the potential to break and he looked ahead and passed to a centre back (might have made that up). Anyway, not sure I can hold him responsible for that. Regardless of the formation Benteke was our only striker and if he's coming back that far to get a sniff of the ball it's because there is nothing bridging the gap from defence to offence (other than a huge number of erratic and desperate hoofs). Benteke did nothing last night, but I don't hold him accountable for it.

At least then I may be able to get to move my 3 season tickets from the Whitehorse to the upper Holmesdale, which I have been trying to do since promotion. My knees can't take it any longer.

Has it not occurred to anyone, teams know our strength getting crosses in from the wing to Benteke. Utd worked hard to stop us getting any crosses in. With only Zaha to get crosses in, who they dealt with well, they played Benteke out of the game.
Its a bit churlish to have a pop at our best striker, if he has a quiet game.
