Quality player and another great signing by the club this summer.

Welcome to the best football club in the world Christian, I can't wait to see him terrorising defences in a Liverpool shirt.

He will score at least 25 goals for LFC this season

Doubtful. I'll be happy with 15 plus.

He's a handful though and should create more space for the players around him and will give opposition managers a different problem to Sturridge, Coutinho and Firmino as they'll have to push up to avoid Bentekes threat in the box. Push up too high against our pacey attack and through ball specialists and they'll have serious problems also.

I'm delighted we've signed him and I think he'll do really well for us. He seems to be quiet and modest off the pitch and a beast on it, which is something I like in a player.

So you like players that 'try for the help the team?' Players that look up to Stebie?

rojo para la vida · « **Reply #123 on:** July 22, 2015, 09:40:59 pm »

I'm quietly pleased. I've got a feeling that he's going to surpass some peoples expectations. Welcome Christian, TF you won't be playing us this season.

Good luck Benteke he looks pleased to sign literally has creamed his jeans

Spraynard Kruger · « **Reply #125 on:** July 22, 2015, 09:41:55 pm »

I have always rated him massively since that first year at Villa and I'm incredibly excited to see him in red. He is going to be an absolute nightmare for the opposition.

Be great to have a proven peno taker in the team, Stevie almost irreplaceable in that respect but I wouldn't have trusted many of the others to be honest. Decent at frees too.

I think the club have done superb business this summer topped off with Benteke. After ending last season with a whimper I was dreading the new season but time has passed and I'm optimistic there's the makings of a great team here.

As a Belgian, when I saw the confirmation I was very very excited. I know there are a lot of doubters. And I sometimes doubted him as well. But every time I saw him play. He impressed me. He's a beast. And he will bang in the goals for us. I'm sure he will. Don't compare him to any other of our "target men" we bought. He will be better.

Welcome Belgian36.

Just one thing for all of you here. If this is what you come to post expect a warning. Persist and expect a ban

I'm ok with this all the way now he's here.
Ramble on Christian, score a million, torture defences, win trophies and leave a big, deep mark.
Welcome.

Baffling, I'll cry a solitary tear for you and your sad day!

Think he'll do well for us. Interested to see how we line him and sturridge up once sturridge is fit.

That's a bit harsh, no? He's surely entitled to his opinion, he's wished him well too.

TomDcs · « **Reply #148 on:** July 22, 2015, 09:56:57 pm »

I have some reservations but I'm 100% behind him and will be until the day he ever leaves. Welcome, and look forward to the aggression and hopefully a hat full of goals.

kavah · « **Reply #149 on:** July 22, 2015, 09:57:06 pm »

Stoke are now shitting themselves, and I'm a lot happier about our first game. No one likes playing against this lad, great signing.

He can try harder then with his 3rd post of the year

That's the thing ain't it?

Will be very interesting to see what plan Rodgers has for the season formation wise. Let's hope it is something good.

Rattleduser · « **Reply #155 on:** July 22, 2015, 10:00:39 pm »

Be great if he performs in a similar way that he has done at villa. Hope we get to see the same performances that he produced against us at Anfield on a regular basis.

He's not pretty is he?

And that lean looks a little light. Not like Clyne's who had the strongest and best double-armer anyone has ever seen!

Rush was far from pretty but.....

There's no denying Benteke has quality, that's not the issue at hand. The issue ( and I can accept there might be a better place for that discussion ) I have is where Liverpool are as a club and football is in general with transfer fees and what not.

But I'll move on now
