BrettNUFC Posted March 29, 2014 Share Posted March 29, 2014 Beyond me how people can just sit and watch Benzema up front for one of the best teams in the world and accept it without question. They are renowned for signing world class players for huge money yet still find themselves with just a good striker in one of the most important positions.

Village Idiot Posted March 29, 2014 Share Posted March 29, 2014 When you have people like Ronaldo and Bale at the sides, having a player like Benzema who's able to drop a bit deep and move the ball intelligently and create space is more useful than another all out striker that will score 1000 more goals, particularly when they don't play with a natural #10 anymore after selling Özil and Isco not featuring much.

BrettNUFC Posted March 29, 2014 Share Posted March 29, 2014 He's a good striker. I've never moved away from that, look at Higuain for Napoli. He's a good player and will get goals but they aren't the world class strikers a team that wants to win everything. I find it hard to take Sewelly's foreign opinions on board. Sewelly tried to argue with me that Robben wouldn't last under Pep and he'd be sold last summer, that worked out well didn't it sewelly? Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

BrettNUFC Posted March 29, 2014 Share Posted March 29, 2014 Sewelly doesn't rate Robben and thought he wouldn't make it under Pep because of 'work rate' Ahhh it's lovely watching Madrid run riot. Bittersweet though as I love Rayo's attacking mentality. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

BrettNUFC Posted March 29, 2014 Share Posted March 29, 2014 Well it was either he didn't rate robben or he thought Pep wouldn't have such a robben player. Either way it was a pretty fucked up tweeting session in the summer which has been put to bed now. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

midds Posted March 29, 2014 Share Posted March 29, 2014 Can't believe Brett's got the sheer audacity to have a pop at anyone on this board over their opinions of individual players/managers. That's fucking staggering given his previous. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
