Stevo985 Posted September 4, 2012 VT Supporter Share Posted September 4, 2012 Weimann's certainly looked a hell of a lot better than Delfouneso this season. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ponky Posted September 4, 2012 Share Posted September 4, 2012 I love Bent and what he brings to the side but I have to say I wouldn't be shocked if PL decides to start a few games with Benteke and Gabby up front and Bent on the bench, if the situation demands it.

villaglint Posted September 4, 2012 Share Posted September 4, 2012 I don't think we are going to be as reliant as Benteke as we originally thought. Weimann looks to be stepping up this season, and we now have Gabby back to fitness to push for a place alongside Bent. Looks like healthy competition amongst 4 strikers this season. You think? He's okay but for me that's it. Hard worker but don't think he'll ever be good enough unless we drop down a division. Happily be proved wrong. His movement is excellent - it is no coincidence he keeps getting in on goal. Granted he needs to be a little more composed in front of goal. But that will come with experience and some confidence when he bags one. He is actually a very good finisher. However I would imagine his chances will be pretty limited now as he has Bowery for competition too remember. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If bent remains fit he may well play two out of three games as an average this season. It was the way Holt was played last season and he scored a hat full. Benteke should get plenty of match time with at least three of the front men regularly rotating. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dr_Pangloss Posted September 4, 2012 Share Posted September 4, 2012 Benteke and Gabby would be a real physical force up top. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

steve-67 Posted September 4, 2012 Share Posted September 4, 2012 Bent is still getting his sharpness back. Selling him makes no sense at all. Once Lambert has them playing the way he wants them, Bent will start scoring goals again. He might end up being second fiddle to Benteke in the fullness of time though.

Rob182 Posted September 4, 2012 Share Posted September 4, 2012 As Bent is our star striker, I would imagine that he will be picked for the majority of our games, with Benteke and Gabby being rotated. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

barry'sboots Posted September 4, 2012 Share Posted September 4, 2012 We now have really interesting options up front with a poacher, a speed merchant, a big unit that can also play and an intelligent second striker. I think this gives Lambert some real options and the ability to make tactical changes. Still wouldn't mind Robbie Keane back for a few months in January again, possibly allowing Andi to go out on loan and get regular football depending upon how much game time he is getting. If Benteke is ahead of Lukaka in his development, as I have read, then he could be quite some player. Also, what a squad Belgium have at the minute!
