If I had the choice of spunking £15-20m on either Benteke or Damaio, I'd pick Benteke every day of the week.
Am I the only person would that easily prefer Leandro to Benteke and would spend more to get him? I think he's the complete striker and has the potential to rip this league apart. I fear that Benteke could potentially be a one season wonder.

One is proven in this League and the other isn't. I think Benteke is only going to get better and he already looks the real deal now.

I don't usually do 'neg' but I'm sick of getting alerts that somebody's posted and coming to the page to find another fucking stupid cheese pun.
You do know this is the discussion thread... It gets up to 30 pages some days - 600 alerts per day!

And yes, some will be spam.

Others may be cheesy.

Either of which I would think should go well with a spud.

I'm undecided, and would be happy to leave it to AVB to decide.

I just want a shiny new striker. This window. Please?

Can't speak for anyone else, but I've seen a good bit of Leandro, and I just think he is garbage. I would say overrated, but I don't honestly think anyone rates him other than Spurs. Add to that the fact he would almost certainly take a substantial time to adapt to the league, the country, the language, etc.

Benteke could be argued to be a one season wonder had he been playing for a better team, but Villa? Really? He carried them. He has the physical attributes for the PL, he has the experience, etc. Not only is he vastly more likely to make an immediate impact, he is (in my humble opinion of course) not just a better prospect than Leandro but a much, much, much better player.

It's always funny when everyone is arguing about which striker to buy, when we'll likely end up with what we have......actually thats not very funny after all :(

Ah c'mon Hottie, surely this will be the summer where we buy a couple of strikers?









Won't it?

Don't get me wrong Benteke has performed very well this season, but lets not forget he was a complete donkey against us in both games

I don't think it helps playing for a team that was nearly relegated! Can you imagine Adebayor at Villa!? He's bad enough at a top 4-5 club. I think benteke would be a sensation with the service our team would provide him.
