His work in the 6 yard area isn't as clinical as GM and perhaps his Guile and finesse isn't quite in the Murray league either. Accepted.

His ability to win aerial duels is the best in the league by not just a margin, but by a huge distance. His strength in holding the ball up is phenomenal when the ball is played to him correctly. His work in the 18yd area is very smart and clever, though we don't always find him which is a shame. He's a workhorse and a big presence and puts fear into the CB's of other teams when we play to his strengths and he has support.
When Wilf gets double teamed he gets a bit of leeway and rightly so. Benteke gets double and triple teamed every single week for every minute of every game he's on the pitch. He's tough, resilient and a very powerful player and I'd like to think if he played with WZ, AT and a quality attacking mid he would be around the 20-23 goal mark.

Agree with all of this. I also think he needs some competition for his place, a smaller pacey striker with an eye for goal and the ability to tenaciously close down. Someone who can play on their own, but also in a two upfront with Benteke.

How many of his goals have been from close range? All of them? Has been a great signing for us but his shooting / finishing from more than 5 yards has been a disappointment.

Who gives a shit? A goal is a goal, who cares how it's scored?

He's got 17 in a team fighting relegation ffs.

Pardew made too many mistakes, but signing Benteke was a great move (well done to the owners for showing ambition too). I hope he stays fit all season again and bangs in 20 next year for us.

If you judge on his old self he is a pale comparison, I think you could see today that he has lost the pace he once had

He does score goals though

Attacked that header today in a way he doesn't often enough. But he looks like a good signing, even if he isn't quite the complete package.

Their marking from set pieces was utterly bizarre. How the f'ck they decided on that, i'll never know.

Was that his fifteenth league goal this season? Class act, and a great fit for our squad. Worth every penny.
