I think he is carthorse, nowhere near good enough for us

If Balotelli is good enough for us, to some, then Benteke is too. I will go as bold as to predict that by 2016, Benteke will be at a top, top club, (hopefully us the way he has started life in the prem), and Balotelli will be at an average club somewhere, with people (still) only being able to talk about his latest gay hair cut rather than what he does on the pitch.

a carthorse? fucking hell.

He's not a carthorse. He's more of a wild mustang!

Belgium have some immense talent, decent coach and they'd go far in brazil

Love benteke

Is he still only 21? Could develop into a player good enough for us but not yet.

Its such a shame, we'll get rid next week and buy him back in 5 years for 80m.

He'll never be worth that much, he just hasn't got it in him to try hard enough. If we get more than we paid for him, it will be his highest ever transfer fee.

the most he was ever worth was after playing for italy against germany.

we probably could of got 35 mill for him pre-season.

unfortunately he's not lived up to it since.

I know, watching this I thought this was going to be his season, it would all come together and all the naysayers would have been proved wrong.

If we had have sold him in the summer though whilst his value was higher there are those who would have slated Mancini for doing so - damned if you do, damned if you don't.

Benteke is a great prospect - sure in the event Villa go down someone will come in for him.

Promising player I like him allot in a poor team.

 

[sergiokun]

Good finish. Great buy, he will save Villa.

 

[Big Swifty]

If he's a carthorse, Tesco will be after him. I heard he's a bit tasty.

If Ballotelli goes I'd definitely buy Benteke I think he'll develop into a top player he's strong and quick also good in the air

He fits the bill/criteria to perfection.

Maybe Sinclair,Guidetti on loan and 5m?
