Austin or Ings, nostalgia window fans.
It's good to keep an opened mind, but not so open that your brains fall out. |

Tough one. He's not exactly the most prolific striker we've ever had . He didint even looked like he broke a sweat tonight. Time for a change I think . We prob need a few strikers . I know he is a diving t*** but niasse still looks good. It wouldn't be the first diver we bought . Benteke and Delaney if my memory serves me right.
oh yeah ,fcuk off brighton. |

Yes... I would happily drive him anywhere he wanted to go!!
Don't waste your time with jealousy. Sometimes your ahead, sometimes your behind, the race is long. But in the end it's only with yourself!! |

Not for me. He scored 15 goals last year! We'll need at least 2 strikers after January, so if one gets injured again we have at least one left

Are some people out of their minds??? We have only one striker who's is coming back from injury. It will take a couple of full run outs before he is firing on all cylinders and now someone wants to sell him in January when there is only a month to find a replacement??? We need at least one other striker and then when Wickham comes back we have a bit of coverage. If we want to ship Benteke out we will need to wait for the summer when we have replacements available and we can get the most cash for Benteke. For what it's worth - Benteke will come good and score at least 15 goals this season. He always starts slow and finishes strong. COYP

Bonkers to sell our only fit striker. Benteke has shown in the past, including last season, that he is a quality Premier League striker. We have to be patient with him. We were much better in the second half on Saturday with him on the pitch, although he did not pull up any trees himself. Agree we need a new striker with pace and mobility in January but that is to give us another option not to replace Benteke.

The answer is ' no '. He is our only striker. Selling him means we need to identify 2 strikers to come in as we need cover for the first choice. Given our inability to land a second striker in the last window, trying to get 2 in at once is well beyond the capabilities of our management team

Depends on the market if we can get a nice fee for him way more then we paid then yes but who do you get to replace him with that money? as others have said we would need two strikers to come into the club which we struggle to get one so two would be very hard unless the Benteke money was something really stupid. SP was stupid should never be like this plenty off options about in summer now we will be so restricted come January plus have to pay even more out and I just am not confident based on all the past dealings. We would never of been in the place we are now even if Frank was still in charge the full squad is awful and money needed to be spent to fix it which I think had that been the case Frank would of after awhile or even Roy be doing a lot better you can see we are so lacking
