Played 24 games for Milan as a forward last season returned 12 goals and 3 assists
Benteke 29 appearances in all competitions, 15 goals, 2 assists
Menez then played a further 7 more games as an attacking midfielder scoring 4 goals.
Their stats aren't that far apart.
For a third of the price, I think he'd be a better fit than Benteke if I'm being honest.
If i had to choose between benteke and menez, whom I think will fit better in our team. thinking of our player like cou, lallana, firminio & markovic. Then id say Menez will do better as a striker for us, because our midfield is going to be pretty direct and menez do have pace and do make small runs here and there.
As a player as a whole, comparing a striker with a striker then id say benteke is better. With better i mean, benteke is not really slow, he is strong and can head the ball. There is no secret that he can hit the ball. With menez we will get a sharp and smarter striker, if that make any sense to you guys.
Then again i wouldnt want us to spend so much money on these two, and again my post was just opinion.
