Contrary to popular belief, it was not Sherwood that kept us up, it was Benteke's timely return to form. Much like Sherwood claiming he's never at fault, it seems we have a knack of claiming he's never in the right. He undoubtedly played a big part in a] getting Benteke back to form and b] keeping us up. If we were relegated, it would be entirely because of Sherwood, not Benteke et al. I'm not sure you know. It's not like Benteke was a sack o' shite under Lambert though is it? He scored 20 odd goals in one season under Lambert. He was injured. For a long time. We kept losing games because we couldn't score. He came back, not fully fit. Lambert got sacked. Benteke got fitter. He started scoring goals. We won a few games, drew a few games. We stayed up. Meanwhile, Sherwood was playing N'Zogbia and Cole instead of Gil. Meh.. Maybe you're right. Sherwood kept us up by saying "Christian, don't worry about what the world thinks... you're a **** GREAT striker."
