Will we ever score a goal from open play Again? We are just pathetic at the moment, it's fraudulent taking our money!!!

Difficult to see where the next one will come from. Unfortunately we have perhaps the worst set of strikers at the club since the mid-80s (Chris Jones, Langley, McCulloch etc), others who you would expect to contribute have lost form (especially Townsend apart from at WBA) and we seem to have lost any idea about how to score from set-pieces.

It's becoming painful to watch our increasingly fruitless attempts to score a goal from open play. To state the obvious, how can we compete if we can't score? The best we can hope for is 0-0, unless, we are awarded a penalty or two.

Somehow think a fit and motivated Benteke when he returns next month will start scoring for fun once again and our lack of goals will be a thing of the past.
Until that time,believe we will be painful to watch over the next three fixtures and probably,no goals.

Ive seen it all now , this surely is a wind up !!
Benteke is not going to get any better, yes he may score 2 or 3 goals this season but too little too late.

Benteke scored 49 goals for Villa including 19 in his first season.
He managed 15 for us only two seasons ago,after all and I am sorry that you do not share my optimism.

If you play to his strength and get the ball in quickly he will find it.
Dont find him as thats a second wasted.
He will find the ball.
Watch his goals and thats how he plays.
Strange but look at his 15 season.

Totally disagree.

Benteke is a quality striker who has some 37 caps for Belgium and under Fat Sam's guidance,scored 15 goals the season before last.
Perhaps we should analyse our tactics to understand why all our current crop of strikers are finding it virtually impossible to score a goal between them???
