Benteke should have scored there but the pass wasnt good enough, he lost all momentum. Gotta hit that infront of him
 
Fuck we should just recall Mario - at least it is one more striker we can select from.

Fuck that. Origi will be back before long. Ballotelli needs to be kept away from the club until he is sold, irrespective of the cost implications.

Unprofessionalism is contagious and he has it in abundance.
 
You can't be serious. He had all the time in the world and he fucked it up. No excuses for that.

Look at it again without an agenda. Of course he should have done much better but the ball is played behind him. Poor from Benteke but poor pass aswell.
 
Good news Spurs have got through - which means they will be on 3 fronts still and should beat Colchester.

There is no agenda it was just a poor finish. The pass he received didn't make him fuck it up. His first touch was good, but his 2nd touch was heavy which made him fuck up. It was just poor.

Yup, thought so as well, but Benteke should still have just tried to pop it instead of trying to round the keeper with not much room left to run and fluff his lines again. But back to your point - yeah, compare that break to the one that Brannagan led some minutes before that, and you see the difference; the weight and angle of Brannagan's pass was perfect then. Then before that one, Ibe led a break and messed up because too often he thinks about shooting or getting close to the box first and then the pass later; by the time he got stuck, it was too late to make a proper pass.

Good game anyway, glad to see us work hard to keep a clean sheet as well. Our kids are all right; some better than others obviously, but this result and performance is good for their confidence. They probably won't get another chance like this again this season.
 
I think there are genuine concerns about Benteke, some criticisms are more than valid, but he's got such raw powerful ability and alot to work with to potentially turn him into a lethal, confident striker.

There is also some pretty fucking lazy, stereotyping going on too when it comes to shoving him into some pigeon hole, labelling him a big burly, paceless donkey old style centre forward. Like in the Summer - "he only scores from crosses". Seriously, shut the fuck up.
 
I've never understood bald men who insist on wearing hats that only cover a tiny bit of their head, not only looking stupid, but freezing themselves in the process.

My irritation is more that he has clearly made his vast array of hats a 'thing', which depressingly will probably help his profile and do a fair amount to get him a bigger job.
