I'm actually quite enjoying seeing how varied the opinions are on Benteke. To some he's the next Drogba, to others he is the next Michael Ricketts. Rare for a player to split opinion so much although I'd wager that is because of the fee being talked about rather than the player himself.
I'm yet to decide which side of the fence I'm on. I prefer it if he was cheaper but I think he has more about him that a one season wonder.
What I really want is us to find a sub £10m striker and a gifted creative midfielder with the rest.
if last season was season 2009/2010, based on his performance his value will be 7m
if last season was season 2010/2011, based on his performance his value will be 15m
and if last season was season 2015/2016 his value will be 50m
basically its just the going rate for any striker worth his onions, and sadly its going to get worst.
