[PL] Arsenal (H): Post Match

[danperkins]

He is ****ing terrible

He's not in the box enough. When he is he doesn't attack the ball enough

That Ibe cross is his LFC career in mircrocosm

Clearly he's not a terrible player but he hasn't been great at LFC so far. He thrives on crosses and balls into feet with his back to goal. Our crosses from wide areas are **** and Coutinho is the only one that can link the play around the box.

In saying that he is always on his heels & his movement is ****. Whether or not he can change is a different story, personally I don't think so.

Saying he's ****ing terrible is harsh and untrue but saying he's not suited to our style of play or what Klopp wants IMO is alot more accurate. Each to their own though

[Fredo]

He isn't a lfc type player just like Andy Carroll wasn't. Doesn't make them bad or terrible players.

[Maxiedge]

It's incredible how we've assemebled the most Jekyll and Hyde crop of talent

Honestly, I don't think we have a single player you could say plays consistently well apart from Nat Clyne.

Benteke is a terrible player for us. That's all any of us are arsed with. He found his level at Villa.

[Buzzo]

Nope don't think so. He wanted to play more direct. Who made the assist for Allen's goal?

Mate we get it, you like playing devils advocate

[Fredo]

Well obviously playing Caulker upfront when Benteke was sent on earlier is a thinly coded message to him. We know where Lecter stand on Benteke so not surprising.

Devils advocate? Maybe sometimes but I never get the benefit of the doubt eh.

Arsenal (H) Post Match

But they are bad and terrible - for us.

If he didn't drop bollocks everywhere and actually won rather than haemorrhage points we'd all be saying he's good and sometimes excellent. And you'd still be saying the opposite.

Edit- was talking about mig for some reason. Hard to keep up sometimes.

[Buzzo]

He's one of the least mobile, ungainly, centre forwards I've ever seen. He has no game intelligence.

It is a fairly scathing indictment on his LFC career that in a big match with Ings, Sturridge and Origi injured, he starts in the bench No way will he still be with us next season. He will do a job for a team that are prepared to 100% set up round him, but that will never be a team challenging for trophies. Benteke is not a sophisticated enough player for the game we want to play.

And he is criminally slow.

[Fredo]

Klopp keeps playing him though. As bad as he is. Makes Klopp a poor judge of player.

Why can't he sent him packing now so that you lot stop moaning bout him.

Our crossing isn't ****.

It's made to look **** by Benteke not being in the box and him not attacking the ball enough

Someone of his build and power should be lethal in the box but he doesn't use it

He doesn't though does he? He's benched tonight, and was the only senior player to feature against Exeter.

Hardly endorsement.

Your just trolling now. Tekkers s great, Mig was unlucky, Rodgers deserved more time, Klopp didn't invent the pressing game, ypetc. Etc.

I mean he shouldn't be on the bench because then you'd be moaning in case he's brought on. Tedious.

Play Caulker instead of Benteke. Then Ibe would have no trouble finding his target.

I actually thought we should start Big Chris him tonight, purely down to lack of numbers. But Klopp knows best

Firmino has obviously shown more in training to this formation than Chris, with the added fact that Chris has been playing for weeks now. He has a negative effect on the way we play, and should remain an option from the bench.

You're the first person I've heard that said our crossing isn't ****. Moreno and Clyne for the positions they get themselves in, have awful end product and the standard of delivery from them and everyone else is poor. Our corners have been a joke for years too.

I think it's fair to say our crossing is **** and Bentekes movement is ****. It's a bit of a **** fest up there.
