ryanvilla_1994 Posted September 30, 2012 Share Posted September 30, 2012 I'd bring Bent on. Benteke has been pretty shit Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AValon Posted September 30, 2012 Share Posted September 30, 2012 HT. Fair scoreline. Albion should have had a definite pen though. Holman working like a beast! And I'm pleasantly surprised with how much more confidence Albrighton has. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AVFCforever1991 Posted September 30, 2012 Share Posted September 30, 2012 Benteke reminds me of Heskey lol, only on VT Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
picicata Posted September 30, 2012 Share Posted September 30, 2012 Definitely more Savo than Heskey. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

andym Posted September 30, 2012 Share Posted September 30, 2012 we have been good up until the final third where the lack of composure is costing us. benteke has really struggled today with his first touch, id be looking to get bent on at some point Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
steve1986 Posted September 30, 2012 Share Posted September 30, 2012 Benteke is at least moving around the pitch, Bent would never have challenged McAuley there. Give him a chance. Now they have a CB at RB gotta push pace on them. N'Zogbia time soon perhaps? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
VillanousOne Posted September 30, 2012 Share Posted September 30, 2012 Wish we had someone else to take corners also, Albrighton has been ok but we need a change up. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dudevillaisnice Posted September 30, 2012 Share Posted September 30, 2012 Bent needs to come on imo, was surprised to see Albrighton in the lineup and still am.. really doesn't offer much now. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
troon_villan Posted September 30, 2012 Share Posted September 30, 2012 Holman is limited technically, but his work rate and fitness is becoming the stuff of legend. I dont think we have had as hard working a player since Ian Taylor was in the team. Imagine a midfield of Holman - Taylor - Boateng - Milner :shock: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CarewsEyebrowDesigner Posted September 30, 2012 Share Posted September 30, 2012 I'd give Benteke 15 minutes to get a shot on target otherwise I'd take him off for Bent. Albrighton should go for N'Zogbia, if only to stop those awful floaty corners. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dudevillaisnice Posted September 30, 2012 Share Posted September 30, 2012 Benteke looks low on confidence, quite a few players out there look shot of confidence too. That said Bennett has looked pretty good tbh, very good in defense/attack transition. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Condimentalist Posted September 30, 2012 Share Posted September 30, 2012 Why on earth isn't Bent starting? First major error by Lambert IMO. Benteke isn't a starter for me, I said that before this game and that half has just reinforced it. Otherwise though we've been decent. Delph, KEA, Bennett, Albrighton, Gabby, Holman all having good games. Get Bent on and we've got every chance. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I dont think we have had as hard working a player since Ian Taylor was in the team. Imagine a midfield of Holman - Taylor - Boateng - Milner :shock: They would have to play iron man football, where each half is three hours long.

sonic_bouma Posted September 30, 2012 Share Posted September 30, 2012 when i saw alby and gabby in the side i thought we would get it down the flanks but we really havent,its still painfully narrow, frustrating would be the word to describe it we are nowhere near composed or clinical enough in the final third.. i keep looking at PL on the touchline and i think he is pissed off at how slow we are to look forward.. hes been waving his arms telling players to bring it forward but instead we play the sideways ball... bennett has been the main culprit of this, i think Lambert wants him to lose his fear and get forward... West Brom will come into it more and i can see Lukaku coming on and causing us problems Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
KHV Posted September 30, 2012 Share Posted September 30, 2012 Give the lad a chance. Jesus. Yes, he's been poor but he's certainly better than Heskey. Typical VT. Whats wrong with saying he is like Heskey? He is big and strong but as we have seen against swansea, southampton and today his finishing is not a strong point Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dubbs Posted September 30, 2012 Share Posted September 30, 2012 Just concerned taking Benteke off now will dent his confidence even more. Delph needs to come off though, hasn't offered anything yet. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

HongKongVillan Posted September 30, 2012 VT Supporter Share Posted September 30, 2012 Ref is playing for WBA I feel. Benteke is a bit of an enigma So far, some good hold up play with some disastrous one, and he made the chance himself at the end but ruined it by himself too- should have just squared it to gabby. I would keep him on but lambo just need a quiet word with him at half time Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
