ismail-villa Posted December 12, 2015 Share Posted December 12, 2015 I haven't seen him do one thing right. He's been absolutely terrible since he came. Do not see anything in him at all. Sometimes I think you have to hold your hands up and say you've signed a complete dud. Unfortunately for us, this dud (along with Gestede) may cost us our premier league status. Sorry but I had to quote this just to laugh at it. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lexicon Posted December 13, 2015 Share Posted December 13, 2015 Don't you just love a premature judgement? The classic one being that guy who wrote off Benteke, can't remember his name but I don't think he posts here any more. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Keyblade Posted December 13, 2015 Share Posted December 13, 2015 Benteskey was used unironically in the Benteke thread a lot for the early part of 2012/2013 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

PompeyVillan Posted December 13, 2015 Share Posted December 13, 2015 Needs a big game today. He's improved massively, I panned him at the start of the season. I'm not sure he's a prolific goalscorer but he's probably the best we've got. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You've basically got people trying to 'call it' as early as possible when it comes to players, so as to appear knowledgeable. It's funny when they write somebody off completely based on bugger all game time and then have egg on their face. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I just post what's on my mind and what I think of a player. I thought it was a bit much to single out one post, hence my post. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

lexicon Posted December 13, 2015 Share Posted December 13, 2015 Seemed as relevant as your post to the topic of Jordan Ayew. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I believe it is. You quoted Benteke though didn't you? Whats the difference?Or is the mentioning of other players an option that is exclusive only to you? 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

poitier Posted December 13, 2015 Share Posted December 13, 2015 I thought he was very quiet today, couple of sideways runs in the first half, barely touched it in the second. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
osmark86 Posted December 13, 2015 Share Posted December 13, 2015 he grew out of the game, but I still see him as offering a lot more than a lot of other players gifted game time. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
markavfc40 Posted December 13, 2015 Share Posted December 13, 2015 (edited) I thought he was one of less than a handful of players who really tried today and showed some desire. As soon as he went up top though and became the focal point he became way less effective and had little impact.
