Jesus christ, can you not read what part of:
"However he did show more pace than Can and the rest of our defence when we played them"
Is ambiguous to what I was trying to say? Are you taking the piss or just a moron? I mean I literally said the word 'pace' for you and you still ask 'which one pace or out muscle?
I was giving you the option to rethink. Benteke out pacing defenders? Benteke dribbling past defenders? That is utter rubbish. Shrugging somebody off is not out pacing them or dribbling past them. I want to see evidence of Benteke smoking Can down the wing or doing a little tricky step over dribbling past him with ease. I'm dying to see it.
Mate, I'm not waiting hand and foot for you. The footage is there and like I said I'm not going to go out of way to explain, especially since you've shown yourself to be incompetent to look at the things in front of you.
Instead of spending all this time replying to me, spend five minutes and get a load of footage of Benteke dribbling past and out pacing defenders. Where is all this footage? Show me? Not just a 2 second burst in one game, I want to see footage of Benteke playing in several games where he shows off his pace and dribbling skills like you say hes got. If you can't show me then stop talking sh*t. The reason you won't 'wait hand on foot' for me is because you know yourself there is very limited footage of Benteke doing those sort of things. FL Red has posted the best videos of him that he can find and he still looks sh*t. He doesn't out pace or dribble past players for fun like you make out one bit.
So when you get proved wrong you say other posters are incompetent and won't look at things in front of them? No. You're just wrong. I;m asking you to prove me wrong and you won't. You just reply rambling on about sh*t. You say Benteke is a mobile forward and he isn't. I'm waiting on you to prove me and the forum otherwise. So do it.
Again you've not read. If he's told to play in the centre I'd be concerned if he started to drift out wide, shows that he doesn't care about where his manager wants him to play. I don't want him out wide either mate, doesn't mean he's not 'mobile' if he's more effective in the centre.
I'm sure Messi has been told to play in the centre. I'm sure Suarez has. I'm sure Henry has. But they are world class forwards because they involve themselves in the game, create chances for themselves, score all different type of goals, involve their team mates and so on and so forth. I can go on all day.
Now don't twist my words, which is what you're trying to do, because I'm not comparing Benteke to those type of forwards. Do you want to know why? Because they are MOBILE and Benteke ISN'T.
Benteke stays in the central positions because he is immobile but you're saying he's on strict orders from his manager? Benteke is good at what he does I'm not arguing against that but I'm not even carrying this debate on now - Benteke is immobile end of discussion and you haven't got a clue if you think otherwise.
I can't for one second imagine Benteke drifting wide or dropping deep to make some space for himself, or constantly making runs behind the back four for 90 mins, or putting his head down and dribbling with the ball beating 2 or 3 defenders
It's not about managers orders, its about his style of play. I can't wait to see the evidence you show me of him doing those things which you said yourself you're so sure there are tons of examples. I'm waiting to see them.
Do you watch Villa play or something? All I'm saying from what I've seen of Benteke he's been far from immobile. I find it hard to believe that you've gone out of your way to watch him play for Villa and you're basing your argument from 'he's a big striker therefore he must be slow'. I'm keen to know your vast scouting of Benteke?
Jesus wept... Again, you've not read. Not only did Benteke win in the air but as I said but also he was outpacing them. You're twisting what you read so that you think it makes you look clever. It really just makes you look ignorant. Please read this post again before you reply because you're becoming a self fulfilling prophesy from my original post.
So because I don't support Villa are you assuming I never watch them play then or I haven't seen enough of Benteke to form an opinion on him? I watch Villa probably about as much as anybody else on here. I actually take a bit of interest in them as my brother in law supports them so I've probably seen them more than you as it happens. Well, I'm actually convinced I have because you're saying Benteke is a mobile striker
I'm not ignorant. I can accept people thinking Benteke will be a huge success, I've got no problem with that. You're saying he is mobile though and you must be thinking of somebody else because Christian Benteke is not a mobile forward. Even his biggest fans on here will admit so.
