Kaikai has been recalled, I hope he finally gets a chance, he is quality.
Trump lost. Badly. Hahahahahahaha. |

That's all very well, but like Zaha, he's predominantly a right-sided winger that's going to have to play on the left. If we carry on like this I can't see a single decent cross for Benteke anytime soon.

From what I've seen of him (highlights, admittedly), he likes to cut in from the right and cross/ shoot. Hopefully will be decent back up. We're getting decent service into Benteke, he's had the third most shots from inside the box of anyone in the league, behind Aguero and Ibrahimovic. Just needs to take a few more of his chances.

And work his socks off Just putting in an average amount of effort would be a start. Disinterested most of the time. Kaikai should be given a chance, Townsend hasn't shown anything thus far so why not

I couldn't find the stats for 'shots inside the box' (which seems a very narrow statistical sample anyway), but for 'shots' and 'shots on target' he's certainly not in the top three. Perhaps he would be with better service?

I think what showed in the 1st half last night was that despite him winning headers, there was limited support and we were just not getting to the 2nd ball or competing for the 50/50 balls. He needs anther up there - either in a 4-4-2 or one of the wingers or midfield getting up to assist. Anyone know when McArthur is due back?

People should give Campbell more respect. We all know hes limited but he ran his nuts off last night and to be fair he always does. His workrate showed up our primadonnas and he actually looks like he has the required fitness levels unlike most of our squad. I like the fella he never moans and just gets on with it like a model pro

Campbell looked better than Benteke last night, although Benteke did win a penalty (which wasn't given).

I think we should consider giving Campbell and Kaikai a start as well as Sako.Possibly even be braver and look at other possible alternatives from our youngsters. We need some passion and fight on the pitch.Campbell and Sako made a huge difference off the bench and it was good to see some effort for once this season

And was injured, had no support other than hoofs and had played three games in a week etc. Benteke, 1 in 2 goal ratio for us in the premiership. Already scored more than Murray or Gayle in less games, and still gets slated because he doesn't run himself into the ground by half time.
