K-Carlsen Posted August 12, 2013 Share Posted August 12, 2013 Have you heard the news? Heee's playing today I want to see him score a goal Dwight Yorke, Dwight Yooorke. Loved that guy, my biggest idol as a young lad. Dean Saunders as well, before that. But yeah, agree with you. Would also add Merson, Milner & (maybe) Carbone though.

Dodgyknees Posted August 12, 2013 Share Posted August 12, 2013 The present transfer window isn't closed yet. Now, now. Keyblade with rumours of a bid coming from Spurs should they sell Bale which has been reported in the media i will remember your smiley. The mirror, the same paper who told us he was certain to go for 15m and would not return to Villa AND would go on strike. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Villaninireland Posted August 12, 2013 Share Posted August 12, 2013 Can see myself in that gif celebrating that goal before it had gone over the line. He absolutely battered that defender . 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mockingbird_franklin Posted August 13, 2013 Share Posted August 13, 2013 Scored a goal and Killed one of the opposition in one move, would be nice to see him do that to John Terry this season, unlikely as Terry would be too busy play acting to actually attempt a real challenge 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LondonLax Posted August 13, 2013 Share Posted August 13, 2013 I feel a bit bad for the defender. Breaking a collerbone in a preseason friendly sucks. I hope he does it to a few premership defenders this season mind. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Stevo985 Posted August 13, 2013 VT Supporter Share Posted August 13, 2013 He really should have known better than to run into Benteke though. That's like jumping in front of a train and complaining that you got hurt. If anything, he's lucky. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
samjp26 Posted August 13, 2013 Share Posted August 13, 2013 (edited) Honestly I think he could end up being our most talented ever player. Not often at all that you get some somebody so strong, so quick and still so technically gifted. I firmly believe Lambert and his staff have developed his game leaps and bounds too, which bodes well for potential future signings.

supernova26 Posted August 13, 2013 Share Posted August 13, 2013 That goal was a foul, Benteke barged into him, you can't do that or use some mythical shoulder barge rule bullies made up at school to excuse it. Still love him as a player though...an Henry/Drogba hybird almost. He needs to watch the discipline though...vs Norwich and Chelsea last season I think back too. Arsenal will be a good test for him, one of the few teams who kept him quiet last season. He was very quiet in this fixture. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mythical barge rules excuses are made up by those who got knocked over by stronger kids at school. Benteke was just stronger! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I suppose he "fouled" Smalling before Weimann's goal against United then yes? I'd trust 2 professional referee's opinions over yours any day.

This time Benteke ran into the defender breaking his collar bone in the process. Forgive me for disregarding your professional referee comment with mild hilarity.

TRO Posted August 13, 2013 Share Posted August 13, 2013 (edited) What I saw was a Malaga player systematically moving across the box to take Benteke out....just before the Malaga player made contact Benteke beat him to it and shoulder charged him back. I would call it poetic justice. I notice so many times other teams using physical nudges on our players to gain advantage and it can be forgiven to think we are naive. Benteke seems to have been better drilled than our other players on how to deal with this. What goes around comes around for me.

It was 50/50 both ran into each other. Just because the defender role a collarbone doesn't mean it was a foul Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Voinjama Posted August 13, 2013 Share Posted August 13, 2013 I literally cannot believe how good he is. He is incredible, the best striker at the club since Yorke. And he is ridiculously strong. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
