Fastest goal for us this season, and last goal in a match for us this season, at Brighton of all games! This proves Benny is switched on for the full 90 mins, keep it up Benny boy, the Brighton classic has earned you another contract, feed the beast and he will score.

I know this is all about opinions but I think you must have been watching different games to me, and I watch them all. He wins lots of headers played up from the defence. Not always cleanly and not always well directed but providing enough time to allow for regrouping and taking a breath. His physical strength is what gets him into those situations. He clears more corners than most of the other defenders but he is a forward. Man marking is not his skill.

Should we lose him then I am sure we will notice a gap next year.

I agree

Originally posted by Fatherken

have I got this right palace99 you are now blaming Benteke for the amount of goals we have let in this season

we have conceded more goals from corners, or are in the top 3, and that's a fact.

Benteke is never tasked with picking up a player since the Swansea disaster. The very next week Pardew stuck him on the edge of the 6 yard box and he has remained their ever since.

Teams can overload us with tall players - Burnley and West Ham games spring to mind. Against Wolves we had Clyne picking up their tall centre forward. It almost resulted in a goal.

Clearly, our poor set piece defending is not all down to Tekkers (Guita's reluctance to come off his line is another factor) but he clearly doesn't help the situation

38 games divided by 3 = 16 plus a hattrick = 18

Maths clearly not your thing.

It's a tough one - Benteke is starting to perform just as are either about to let him go or give him another contract.
what to do?

As Becky mentioned on the game thread, once the ink is dry on the new contract it will be back to the Benteke of the previous 3 seasons. This one player has held back all potential in the forward area thanks to his transfer fee and wages, time to cut loose.
