Worked hard last night, and provided a few decent knock downs, but didn't have the support. Needs to play two up, but with someone who can feed off him. But isn't up to the pace of English Football. His legs don't work quick enough.
Think he's a decent player, but not one good enough for the pace we play the game at.
Not his fault, and can't fault his effort either; But at a time where we need decent cover we need back up we can rely on, and if he can't provide, we need to be brutal.
It's better to burn out, than to fade away.
He's a decent player but not at this level IMO and probably not in the Premiership.
He could do a job at a mid-table French side.
Lay off to AOC in the first half was excellent though. Just hasn't got the pace. And we just don't play the sort of game that requires a striker to be back to goal all the time.
If we had an Ian Wright type thing going, it'd be perfect for him. But the game just isn't played that way.

First half there were some good moments from him but overall he doesn't offer enough.
Shame, 'cos he started brightly and if he could regain that form he'd be a useful backup.
Like Bordeaux where he won the league and he had a great season both domestically and in Europe? He had the likes of Gourcuff supplying him then. Now its BenayounOriginally Posted by Letters (TPFKA WWTL@WHL)
Play him with RVP, let him have a run in the team and he'll be fine. The 4-5-1/4-3-3 has been a failure and its time to go back to basics.
How can we play that though? We'd get overrun in midfield....Like Bordeaux where he won the league and he had a great season both domestically and in Europe? He had the likes of Gourcuff supplying him then. Now its Benayoun

He scored 10 goals in 38 league games and made 1 assist.
Overall he scored 16 goals in 52 games and made 1assist. Not terrible stats but hardly setting the world alight.
He's not as bad as some people on here are making out but he's never been a prolific goalscorer. 16 is the most he's ever got in a season.
Buy better midfielders?The only reason we started playing the 3 in midfield was to protect Cesc who was shit in a 2. Well he's long gone to spread his failing disease at Barca so no need to play it anymore
If it's about quality, then why does everyone play with a 5....Buy better midfielders?
The only way I could see it working, is if RVP were to drop into Midfield and play as an ultra deep lying striker...

Behave sweetheart.
