Karim Benzema

[Morten]

Benzema has been more clinical than usual, some of it could be because Ronaldo is not there, but really, it was fair critisism when he couldnt find the back of the net the last two seasons in la liga.
Even though he played a supporting role for Ronaldo, its not like Ronaldo forced him to miss sitters for fun.
Ofc, other parts of his game was always pretty good.

I had to defend Benzema against you previous two seasons. Thought you wanted to get rid of him. Great to see you acknowledge his quality.

 

[Morten]

Back to his usual la liga form, give Mariano some starts.

Suspected of involvement in kidnapping. Don't know how reliable this is.

"An agent who worked for the Real Madrid player filed a lawsuit Monday, October 8 for attempted kidnapping and sequestration occurred the night before.
He accuses Karim Benzema's relatives of trying to kidnap him after the PSG-OL match on Sunday (October 7th) in Paris, in the context of a dispute over a transfer of cash."

why would a global star like Benzema risk everything for a bag of cash? BS imo.

People said the same with the Valbuena case..

What quality? He is genuinely a West Ham striker at best.

 

[El Flaco]

Except he never blackmailed Valbuena tbf, was only sort of a messenger or whatever.

Anyway, the case is reportedly gonna be dropped next month.

------------------------

Mediapart reveals that in an audio message sent to De Souza, Benzema accused him to be the author of the leak about Milan and "to stop talking about him". He added that he will only leave Real for his "two clubs of heart: Manchester City and PSG."

Might as well play him on the left wing from now on, did quite well, not like Asensio is doing much anyways.

 

[Morten]

It just hit me, we wont actually get a new striker until Benzema retires, will we?

 

[soul24rage]

he should have scored that header and that last chance at the end

I too, have that feeling somehow... Absolutely cannot understand how or why he has endless credit in the eyes of the coaches, the board and Perez. Should have been replaced with either Icardi, Salah, Kane or Mbappé already

Cristiano's prolificacy overcame his profligacy. RM has to find a better finisher, they are not struggling to create chances.

Im pretty sure chance creation is also down significantly from previous years though, our midfield cant provide shit.

+1.... He has been on a massive decline for a while now
