Obviously Mayoral with that devastating record this season to match his previous output would have done way better.

If your stats are right then 31 of his last 44 PL goals have been headers. That seems to be a decent percentage. And he must also count as one of the players with the most improvement on that basis too and so surely the sky is the limit when it comes to his heading ability.

Your stats are of course completely wrong.

To be fair he's not far wrong - neither of Benteke's first 2 goals for Villa were headers.

Fans pay a lot of money to watch their team and the least we expect is for the players that pull on the shirt to give their all, if they don’t we’re entitled to say!! Besides I wouldn’t feel too sorry for him, for £120,000 a week I’d happily take the stick he gets

Surely if we contact the Police we can get some money back, he can be done for fraud, impersonating a professional Footballer.

Something you can never be accused of. Your posts are amusing to see how many ways you can show your misguided opinion of Benteke record as a footballer.

Its the extension that really riles me up, we could have him gone at the end of last season, but the most incredibly insane decision io pay him 13m more for two more.

Keep going, Lanzo, please. You're making this way too easy for me.

Look, a squad needs balance and different options for different scenarios. I'm all for replacing Benteke if we can find someone better at doing what he does. Size/strength/arial ability etc.
I just don't like our chances of finding them.

We are looking for a different CF we have 3 giants, someone with pace, intelligence, anticipation, not someone to move a piano

Much as I find it strange agreeing with Lanzo, Benteke stopped giving us any of that a long time ago, he’s a shadow of the player he used to be, as Martin Tyler said in commentary not so long ago, he’s a gentle giant these days

Based on what performances? He was playing and looking dangerous, then got Covid...and hasn't had a chance since.
