Unfortunately the quality around him is so far below par. How can he not be frustrated? Either we start building a team to support him or he's off. Might come across as disloyal but he has to much quality to be playing in a team this bad.

We don't create simples. He wll go to a well managed team and score 15+ a season no problem. Don't use him as a scape goat. Yes he is not at 100% but part of it is the frustration of this system.

 

In fairness, he had 2 decent heading opportunities and a great chance from Bacuna's ball across today.  If it was the confident, in-form Benteke of 6-1 Sunderland, he'd have scored.

Didn't see any of his own team mates acting like they had been hit by a snipper from the trinity roof when he missed a couple of sitters today… The Silly Prat!

Poor today - the most disappointing thing for me was to see him bounce off defenders and get beaten in the air, there was a chance in the second half where he was through but brushed off by two Palace players - last season he'd have left one of them on his arse. I think his first game or two back from injury, he'll have been excited to be back and the adrenaline would have carried him through, that's faded a little and he's looking rusty and a way off his best. He needs a pre-season to get that right. He looks a very frustrated character right now.

Look, we had 14 attempts today, that means we DO create. What we are not doing is finishing. Benteke was part of that problem today but he is hardly the only one.

Shooting from distance and crossing in the box is not creating good chances.

We created one good chance today.

To be fair we made 3 or 4 good chances today , it was more telling that Benteke was beat in the air lots today

He's clearly frustrated with little or no belief that he's going to get the ball in an attacking position. 

 

He comes into midfield to get part of play, doesn't charge forward to get on the defenders shoulder (probably because he doesn't believe he's going to get the ball back), moans at everyone and looks completely out of sorts.

For me the final shout at the end was a prime example of his frustration, clearly he believes, like anyone else who saw the game, that Palace should have been beaten and our unwillingness/inability to make chances stops us progressing,

He's not playing well, can't argue with that, but he will score goals if given the chance, very few players are one man armies and we shouldn't expect it from Tekkers.
