Pretty good stats, no?

the numbers don't lie but i've always classed him the same as benzema. when you watch them in the big games they never seem to be the player that the stats suggest they are. flat track bully maybe?

Tbf we could use a flat track bully, or record against crap teams in the last year is woeful.

Not true. On either case actually. Benzema's stats are actually not all that. But he is an excellent team player and is adored by Madrid fans.

Cavani is a monster. Great technical player who is imperious in the air. Again was a fan favourite wherever he has been and has made valuable contributions in big games. I think part of the reason he isn't particularly hyped is people psy little attention to the French and Italian leagues and for Uruguay he is often played of position, as a winger or a support striker. While he can do a job there, and performs well he is maybe made to play a sacrificial role, again a bit like benzema when played with Ronaldo.

The only question mark is his age. But class act, class player!

That feeling you have Clive could slip inside the bald ones ass and he would still be screaming benteke if it meant saving a few quid.

I always thought he would do well in the Premier League - of course I also thought that about Falcao and Shevchenko....

Real Madrid’s number 9 for the last decade. I’d take him as back up too. These are special players we’re talking about.
