briny_ear Posted November 16, 2014 Share Posted November 16, 2014 Benteke looked sharp when he came on tonight. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Stevo985 Posted November 17, 2014 VT Supporter Share Posted November 17, 2014 Lukaka seriously? i find this very offensive and even a bit racist... The words 'mountain' and 'molehill' spring to mind. MIght be a translation issue, with "kaka" (or words that sound like that) meaning shit or poo in a couple of european languages. I think Belgian guy might have thought it was a crude play on words to spell it like that. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rodigan Posted November 17, 2014 Share Posted November 17, 2014 I think the two runouts that tekkers has had this week will do him the world of good, and coupled with his game against spurs, I think he's going to be banging them in for us over the Christmas period.... which will make a pleasant change to the useful disaster that is the Christmas group of games....

KSV Posted November 17, 2014 Share Posted November 17, 2014 Just wish he got off the mark. Longer it goes he will lose confidence. Last thing we need is a fit benteke not scoring! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rodigan Posted November 17, 2014 Share Posted November 17, 2014 I think his confidence is the highest its been in a year - he had the look of angry tekkers throughout the tottenham game and that's what we haven't seen for so long... two runouts for belgium will only have helped that.... that first goal is coming, and when it does, there's plenty more to come...

Mantis Posted November 17, 2014 Share Posted November 17, 2014 Once he starts scoring again he won't stop. You only have to look at that period last season from about mid-January to mid-March. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He's a **** donkey, when he's not scoring goals at least. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Zatman Posted November 17, 2014 Share Posted November 17, 2014 that header at end from Benteke was brilliant since he had no room to make a jump but to garner enough power to get it on goal on another note I know he belongs for Englands favourite football team but good god that Origi doesnt impress me Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Well i didn’t mean to spell it cause offence, but even if i did it was still in no way Racist if thats what the translation is. P.s. I still think he is poo and have talked to quite a few Everton fans who think he is turning into a disaster buy. Yes he is 21, but he is labeled as a 28 million pound player, so is evaluated as such unfortunately for him. Lazy Lazy Lazy If he is worth 28, Benteke must be worth 60.

Keyblade Posted November 17, 2014 Share Posted November 17, 2014 I said it in the delph thread. You can't blame Lambert for the contracts offered and the timing of when they're offered. You can partly blame him for his role in creating a club where these good players don't want to be. He didn't create that club. The club has been like that long before Lambert even arrived.

PaulC Posted November 17, 2014 Share Posted November 17, 2014 that header at end from Benteke was brilliant since he had no room to make a jump but to garner enough power to get it on goal on another note I know he belongs for Englands favourite football team but good god that Origi doesnt impress me I disagree I think Origi is quick, and looked very sharp, the one flickon in the first half was brilliant. He's what 19. Great Prospect! 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He's a **** donkey, when he's not scoring goals at least. I'm assuming he thought the poo referred to colour of his skin. Not his ability to play football. Like I said, probably a translation issue.

dont_do_it_doug. Posted November 17, 2014 Share Posted November 17, 2014 That would be a weird one, saying that someone is shit having a racial connotation. Possible though I suppose. What about white dog poo? Maybe they never had that in Belgium. Funny world we live in. Hope Belgian Guy can explain! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

AVTuco Posted November 18, 2014 VT Supporter Share Posted November 18, 2014 But at what price? 10 ? 15 ? 20 ? More ? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DCJonah Posted November 18, 2014 Share Posted November 18, 2014 Depends on the rest of the year. Not sure we'll get the 30 we wanted a couple of years ago. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AVTuco Posted November 18, 2014 VT Supporter Share Posted November 18, 2014 Yes, his value has come down from our wildest dreams, which I suppose can be seen from the options I gave. Depends on the rest of the season, but my guess is somewhere in the 15 mill region, after a decent, but in no way spectacular rest of the season.
