sutherland Posted October 28, 2012 Share Posted October 28, 2012 Heskey never got anything close to a goal every three games for us. What does that even mean? Please read my first line... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mantis Posted October 28, 2012 Share Posted October 28, 2012 Heskey was only played on the wing by McLeish. Even before that he rarely ever scored. And what does "50 pence head" mean? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Enda Posted October 28, 2012 Share Posted October 28, 2012 Aside from having a good game, his first touch was superb throughout. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
VillaChris Posted October 28, 2012 Share Posted October 28, 2012 Benteke's a good lad and is improving, hopefully he can get on a decent scoring run now. Big worry I have is if he does net a few more goals before xmas, we'll sell Bent in January and expect him to score the goals to keep us up. Wouldn't surprise me if a few clubs higher up the league are already watching him, say Newcastle if Ba leaves. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Morpheus Posted October 28, 2012 Share Posted October 28, 2012 Where's Morpheus? How's Carroll and Lukaku? Carroll couldn't control his dinner, Lukaku has just missed two one on ones! Like I said Villas problem is the midfield! Haha Lukaku has just scored for them! Glad to see you have missed me 'SikhinTrinty.' Yes, seen Carroll's lack of control, Lukaku's goal and Benteke's goal. However we are talking about one game here. I made my judgement on the aforementioned players through watching them play in several games. In Benteke's case, if he now continues the terrific form shown against Norwich, then i will very gladly tip my hat and admit i was wrong about him.

8pints Posted October 28, 2012 Share Posted October 28, 2012 Joint top goal scorer now (In the league) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Zatman Posted October 28, 2012 Share Posted October 28, 2012 thought he was very good and best part wasnt his goal it was in 1st half he showed his hunger and desire when he was only player to come for a throw in, beat 2 players as he was alone and won a free-kick and looked up and rest of the team as if to say WTF Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Shillzz Posted October 29, 2012 Share Posted October 29, 2012 Starting to look more John Carew than Emile Heskey. With some gradual improvement over the next few years, he'll soon turn into a very good Premier League striker. You only need to compare him against our own youngsters at around the same age to realise that the boy has some talent. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yet clearly they are miles apart in terms of ability. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Big_John_10 Posted October 29, 2012 Share Posted October 29, 2012 I think that benteke shows that given the proper backing Lambert will add the quality we need without paying ridiculous money. But it all comes down to money and wages given to him. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
flamingsombrero Posted October 29, 2012 Share Posted October 29, 2012 Not that he is on the same level but he reminds me of Drogba in his first season at Chelsea. He certainly appears to be capable of kicking on in a similar fashion and become a very good player for us once he's properly settled into the style of the Prem.

Mattyp_avfc Posted October 29, 2012 Share Posted October 29, 2012 Personally a very big fan of Benteke!! He's big, strong, got a good first touch and can score goals! He hasn't shyed away from a chance even if he misses a couple. He is very raw and it will take a little while for him to settle and get more experienced in the PL, but when he does I think he could be our main man.... No way should we sell Bent unless we get good money (16-18m),then re-invest it into the squad with a quality 2nd striker and a winger who can create chances too. We have a long way to go as a team and there's a long way to go this season. We need to back the manager and players 100%. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I was thinking of a creative midfielder but KEA could play that role if he was between a quality DM, two good wingers and a quality 2nd striker who can create and score goals.... that would be the expensive purchase but if the scouting system we are trying to implement will work for us long term, it should hopefully find us that sort of a player!

Morpheus Posted October 29, 2012 Share Posted October 29, 2012 KEA doesn't have the ability to be either a DM or a CM in the Premeirship. A complete nonentity of a player and another poor signing by Lambert. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mantis Posted October 29, 2012 Share Posted October 29, 2012 Lol, writing players off after 9 games. KEA is actually a decent player IMO and that will show if we improve the players around him in midfield. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
