Get rid of Bent and use the freed up cash to keep a player of obvious quality at the club. No brainer. Benteke was probably genuinely interested in leaving if Spurs were sniffing about. No reason to move if Villa are offering you a much improved deal.

He'd have got a much improved deal at Spurs as well though. I don't think he will have the same impact next season.
 
Doubt there will have been that big of a wage increase, will likely have been about adding all sorts of release clauses.
 
Won't have as big an impact next season now teams have figured him out. Having said that he'll still be a very good striker for them, as long as he doesn't spit his dummy out

Exactly how has he been figured out? And you almost act as if he peaked at the age of 22.
 
Benteke = Michael Ricketts
absolutely no chance of that happening, especially since ricketts was a half season wonder ala caroll

A seasoned CB in O'Shea was made to look like a 18 year old debutant by benteke. Found out my arse, he's an absolute machine.

Because no one had a clue who he was before this season, without any idea what his strengths were to defend against.

Now he'll be the main man to defend against when teams are playing villa, the other team coaches will know his strengths and weaknesses and how best to defend against him. That's how football works.

How have I acted like he's peaked at 22??? :lol:

Are you another one of the lovely villa fans who we have on this board?

Err. Defend against what exactly? Figure him out, how exactly?

You mean his strength? His ability to hold off 3 defenders? His heading ability? His natural ability to bang in goals?

Nothing in his locker is typical abilities you can counter easily. Which is why he is such a valuable player.

FWIW, he was on 20 k pw. Think he was offered 40 k pre TR, 60 k pw after. So a 20 k bump on what we offered. He probably has a 25 - 35 million release clause as well.

You don't think clubs noticed that at least half way into last season? It didn't take a full season for that to be obvious :lol: No I'm not a villa fan just because I questioned your flawed logic

f***ing dozy wanker, so he is the real deal?

I will judge him on this season when he is pulling huge wages playing for you

Sounds like the other 19 teams in the league all get together for a close season summit to figure out how to deal with the benteke issue :lol:

No mate, I think the entire season will have given the coaches and manages a good idea of his best to deal with him. That's how it works, it's not flawed at all :confused:

As i said, he will have been found out a bit and won't have as much of an impact. This doesn't mean he'll be shit, he'll still be a vey good player for them

Who said that like? :confused:

Typical villa fans mate
 
I think benteke may well struggle next season as players figure him out

Nothing is guaranteed, but there were plenty of teams who failed to figure him out last season, especially those we played towards the end of the season, who had had the best part of nine months to figure out how to neutralise him.
