I reckon we should try this thing called 'crossing the ball in the air', and he'd get goals.

Right, because trying this thing called passing the ball to his feet really ain't working. ..

Don't care whether it's with his head - his boot - or his derriere - as long as he starts scoring goals and soon, ideally tonight, if he is played.

he owes us bloody big time tonight!!!

the only way ill let him off for not scoring, is if he manages to hit the post 6 times and the bar 10 times
ill put it down to one of those games

hes is going to need to run his f-ing socks off, change his style of play

what ever he was doing before, it wasnt working, so lets do the opposite!! (start running)

If the players make the correct passes and correct crosses in the final 3rd Benteke will score.

We seem to not know what to do in the final 3rd sort that out we will score goals

I feel for him tbh, he spent months wanting crosses on his head that never came, but because no crosses came in he started tracking back for the ball, now its been so long since getting good deliveries that his shooting confidence is in tatters. He wants to be a supporting striker until he sorts his head out and in that respect he has been brilliant.
In terms of what to do with him we need to look at him like a Chamackh rather than a Glenn Murray...

I think the service to him in dangerous areas is pretty woeful. There was one cross from open play in the first half against Watford that I remember him really attacking (good defensive header under pressure from the Watford guy).

At set plays defenders seem to be allowed to grapple him with impunity.

His hold up play, balls to his chest, is generally OK I think, the ball usually sticks and he usually lays it off to a team mate.

In the air he wins a lot of flick ons but generally there is no Palace player close enough to benefit.

Don't get me wrong, I have been disappointed with him but in my view he isn't quite as bad as some people on here make out.

Whatever happened to that bloke called Benteke at the Villa.?
He scored some real special goals. Check him out on u tube.
Sounds like our manager is treating the bloke we got right. Either he performs or faces the axe. Cant say fairer than that.
I just don't know what has happened to him. You can't blame anything about our style of play. No matter how we play, Shearer would safely be in double figures by now.
No, there is something not right with Benteke. Don't ask me what, but he is so different to when he was at Villa. No goals since May. Unbelievable. Last season he was alright but certainly not special.
I feel sorry for him. He must be wondering why he has lost it. But he has.
