Can't see why people would want Higuain over him. Not been the same player for the last couple of year in my humble opinion. Benzema on his day is near unplayable, strong, quick, good finisher, would have him here in a heartbeat

on his day i.e. when he can be arsed.

Worth pointing our that he scored more than all our strikers last season

and has scored less league goals than all of them so far this season.
 
been an admirrer of Benzema for a long time, would love to see him in a blue shirt, realisticly i rekon city will want a Falcao or Cavani though, which would be just as good

Makes Balotelli look like Bobby Zamora.

Lol, pack it in. That whole post is pretty much just grass is greener.

TBH most talk of our striker related activity this summer is a big case of green grass. I still don't even know why we're prioritising one so much when we have much more obvious imbalance issues in the squad. If we go and piss 45m on Cavani and don't sign a world class CM to play alongside Yaya or someone to be what Hazard should have been, I'm torching Txikis car.
 
Bump as I feel this is our best option if we miss out on Cavani which looks likely

Thiago Bernad and Benzema for same price As Cavani?

Yes please
 
That would leave Real Madrid with 0 strikers since Higuain has confirmed he's leaving. They'll keep Benzema and probably add Suarez.

This. Huiguain definately wants to leave so no chance will Benzema leave.
 
If the Cavani deal is dead and he ends up at Real Madrid, along with Suarez (possibly) I would hope we'd have a run at getting this fella.
Pellers signed him for Madrid back in 09/10, so would like to think Benzema would be a player on our radar should Real get their intended targets, as I see him being pushed out.
He only started 19 games last season (11 as sub) 11 goals and 11 assists.
I just think he'd be amazing in the Prem and if the opportunity arose, we should go all out.
I know Higuain is likely to join Arsenal, but with Ronaldo, Cavani and possibly Suarez in the side, his game time would lessen.
 
Isn't he and Ribery up for a rape charge with a minor?

edit - just seen that it is adjourned until 2014 and the charge is related to sex with a minor. Do we need this baggage next year?

To be fair, she really, really, really doesn't look like a minor. She was an underage prostitute back then, because of the PR this has brought her, she now designs lingerie.

This is a picture of her as of then. NSFW

reading between the lines and making massive leaps to conclusions, ribery is fucked and benzema may get off with just his reputation in tatters.

If I remember correctly, didn't Ribery have her flown all over the place to meet with him?

Manchester City have thrown a spanner in the works of Liverpool's efforts to land France forward Karim Benzema from Real Madrid.

With Luis Suarez set to complete a move away from Merseyside, the Premier League runners up have acted fast to allay fans' fears by bringing in a big name replacement.

Rumours from Spain suggested Liverpool keen to land Benzema sooner rather than later and a deal, believed to be worth up to £40-million, might have been completed as early as the weekend.

However, late interest from cash-rich Manchester City has stalled the deal with Real Madrid hoping a bidding war may break out for the French hitman.
